Ye its a bit relatively speaking. Compared to Allegri.
Conte had a very strict tactical plan. Runlines, passinglines and zonal pressing was very clearly put for post positions.
When we look at the defence, he had his tactical approach in place, and positions could be changed according to opponent.
Whats different under allegri is the level of detail. We dont just have a formation with zonal pressing and basic positionning. He adds detail in what each individual player according to his position must do at what time and when what player has the ball in what area
Yesterday we could see how at all times we keep a certain structure in the center, what players to leave position and move into additional cover(this is now), how and when players can attempt interceptions or hold off the attackers (new). Especially chiellini who had a load of instructions on when he could move step out to press the player, when to step out and make interceptions, when to move into cover to block,...
High praise on how incredibly concentrated we executed all of that. An example is when for example Iniesta skipped past dybala, and Alves leaves neymar alone t move into additional cover so bonucci could move forward. But mostly that Chiellini kept diciplinned all evening and only attempted interceptions at precise moments.
Normally barcelona gets 4-5 freekicks close to the box, and 1-2 penalties. But we gave away exactly 1 freekick and 0 penalty situations. And that was largely down to how Allegri's instructions and the players executing it
The level of detail in our defensive plan yesterday was absolutely insane
