Imanol Alguacil at Olympiacos: Tactics, Style & What Changes After Mendilibar 10.09.2026 44min🔴⚪️ What will Imanol Alguacil actually change at Olympiacos?The former Real Sociedad and Al-Shabab manager arrives in Piraeus with a reputation for high pressing, positional football, developing young players and building teams capable of imposing themselves both domestically and in Europe.But this is NOT simply Olympiacos swapping Mendilibar's intensity for possession football.In this tactical breakdown, we look at exactly how Imanol Alguacil plays and what his ideas could mean for the current Olympiacos squad.🔎 We analyse:⚽ Why the famous 4-4-2 diamond doesn't tell the full story📐 Why a 4-3-3 or 4-1-4-1 could make more sense at Olympiacos🧠 How Alguacil builds from the back and manipulates opposition pressure🎯 Why the No.6 could become the most important position in the team🔥 His aggressive high press and counterpressing principles➡️ How he attacks the half-spaces and creates third-man combinations🏃 How players like Puerta, Chiquinho, Fortounis, Bailey, Gelson and Jota Silva could fit🛡️ The risks of the high defensive line🇬🇷 The challenge of breaking down low blocks in the Greek Super League🌍 Why his Real Sociedad performances in Europe should encourage Olympiacos fans⚠️ And the warning signs from his final season in SpainMendilibar wanted Olympiacos to dominate opponents through verticality, width, second balls and relentless pressure.Alguacil wants control first and then to weaponise that control.The big question is whether this Olympiacos squad has the players to make his football proactive and dangerous rather than possession without penetration. -
