Inverting the Pyramid: The History of Football Tactics (Jonathan Wilson)

Chapter 16: The Return of the Back Three

Wilson focuses on the shift in tactics in European soccer in the 1980s and 1990s, especially Johan Cruyff's stint as a coach at Barcelona.

Wilson also notes the globalization of club soccer through widespread broadcast rights, transfer markets, and international club competitions like the UEFA Champions League.
