- Whoever won the game
Despite the evolution of tactics and systems in place where the sum of the units is greater than their individual parts, teams still rely on their best individuals to make a difference.
I read the other day that Milan have won 65% of their games with Theo Hernandez and only 22% when he was not on the field.
Even the best teams seem to rely heavily on a select few individuals. Think Rodri at City, or Bellingham at Real Madrid.
Do you have examples in mind of a team not being the same without a certain star player? And do you think football is headed in a direction where the team supersedes the individual and such reliance will disappear?
