It clicked immediately. But when a new coach arrives, you still need time to truly internalize his ideas. At the beginning, you think about processes: What do I have to do?
Where do I need to go? Eventually, it happens automatically and becomes part of your game. That’s exactly what you’re seeing now.
Everyone knows their role. And when you don’t have to think about it anymore at the highest level, you gain time. That half-second can decide everything.
