Centre Back Pairing

Exactly, talk normal not like a nob

I've noticed "quarterback" entering our commentators dialogue in recent years

Italian....ergo...not required in our league, ditto the German thing
----------------------------------------------------
It's a one word term used to describe a specific type of player's unique movements in a particular position, the word is Italian because Pirlo popularized the role.

Tiki taka is a Spanish term that's an easier way to describe quick short passing that's been used by English announcers, pundits, fans, etc... for years. Regista's no different, we just haven't seen a great one in the PL yet hence it's not as well known in this country. Doesn't make it unnecessary.

I both look forward to, and fear Cahill’s appearance under Sarri. If he gets one. Playing that high up in defence gives him nose bleeds.

The cahill bashing on this site never ceases to amaze me Been our most consistent cb for 5 years. Still don't know if that's a good thing, but still.

I was advised it's in common use...so I'm confused now

Tiki taka I've heard a lot...not fussed about it either way

To tactics nerds like me yes, otherwise no (in England).

If Jorginho keeps going his thing and we succeed as a team because of it, it'll be a common term very soon

Don't disrespect mikel like that.

Mikel was the most prevalent example of an anti-Regista imaginable
