📖 Hugo Broos is one person who says his opinion without favor and fear. He said on Soccer Africa that the standard of the PSL is very poor, it lacks tactical discipline and organization. He further said South African football is more technical. I believe that technical ability works hand in glove, you can't divorce one from another. Let me quickly explain what we mean about technique and tactics in football. Technical means passing, trapping, heading, and shooting. Tactics refers to positioning, the ability to use space and time.
So what is Hugo Broos saying is we are good technically, which means with our passing, trapping, dribbling but we can't use them in a more tactical structure. I once heard Kevin De Bryune say under Pep the build-up phase is rigid you can't improvise , and everyone has to stay in their position and keep their tactical structure then in the final 3rd that's when you can use your imagination, and creativity, that's when your technical ability comes to play.
