About the episode

James Allcott is joined by football analyst Jamie Hamilton (@stirling_j) to discuss why positions in football are beginning to mean less and less due to a new way of playing the game: relationism. Together, they discuss how relationism differs from positional play and the potential benefits of this radical shift in style.
