TSG Methodology
The TSG Method.
Our goal is to imprint personality onto the game — through training, game strategies, individual skill work, and a specific methodology built to dominate every stage of play.
Every proposal is built around the fundamentals our partner wants to enhance — we select objectives, design the tasks, and measure their impact.

Philosophy
Three Principles That Build Every Session.
Spanish football is built on small, fast decisions inside tight spaces. Our coaching is engineered to train exactly that.
-
Context
Rules that provoke decisions. Every drill is built to force the exact choice we want trained — not random repetition.
Constraint-Led Coaching
-
Space
Zones and heights dictate where the action lives. We structure the pitch so the game produces the moments we want.
Pitch Geometry
-
Decision
What, when and why. We coach the read before the action — not just the action itself.
Read · React · Repeat
The Game In Four Phases
Train Every Moment Of The Game.
A modern game is a sequence of four interlocking phases. We coach all four — and the transitions between them.
Defensive Organisation
Compact · Protect The Centre
- Deny central progression options
- Maintain vertical & horizontal compactness
- Force play wide and trap
Transition Att → Def
Regain Or Delay In 5″
- Immediate counter-press upon loss
- Close the nearest passing lanes
- Protect the defensive line if pressure fails
Transition Def → Att
First Pass Forward · Attack Space
- Vertical pass to break lines immediately
- Exploit disorganised opponent space
- Finish the action within 10–12 seconds
