The Number 10 position – a number and position associated with the greatest of footballing greats. But this position has been marginalised in the modern era. Teams have moved from one pivotal playmaker to a collective creative effort.
Until recently. The Number 10 is returning, the Number 10 is reinventing. Alex Stewart explains.

Great vid ….covered it all ! I’m 40 years old , I play for a vets team as a number 10 …loving it …keep up the good work
for me the position that pisses me off are number 9’s especially cherry pickers. ik they get goals but i can’t stand how it happens and as a coach i think i would honestly hurt a number 9. i wouldn’t put much play through my number 9. so i understand why some coaches don’t use 10’s like how we use to.
what about isco in real madrid diamond
Pirlo redondo scholes dispute your fullback and number 10 theories- deep lying play makers were around ages ago and also attacking full backs
Classic 10???
Modern 10???
I prefer ”Ajax Number 10"
I prefer the old one not gonna lie
What is the hybrid role of griezmann in world cup 2022. Please explain this
So, what would be the difference between the 8 and the 10? Both have similar roles.
No wonder Manchester United are in trouble
This is one of the best soccer knowledge channels online
Wait! Man U has a No.10? LoL.
Modric and Real Madrid Disagrees.
What do you mean? No . 10 never exist in English Football.
It was Never a Thing in England. or Premier League.
Except Foreign Managers from Spanish or Portugese Football put them there.
Why use the term 'free 8's' when the traditional 'inside forwards' seems to sum them up perfectly?
So essentially the false nine has morphed back into a classic 10 who isn't lazy enough to track back. That was basically Paul Scholes' entire career. Sir Alex did it with Rooney once he lost his pace. As a Newcastle fan, Beardsley was the master of it. A goalscorer, a playmaker, dictate play and a menace to any team in possession. That kind of player might not have the goal or running stats, but my god they make the difference.
Does anybody actually know what the 'no. x' role actually means? I've tried to lookup the different positions before and there are loads of different concepts and variations of what they mean – It really annoys me when people keep using all these terms like they expect you to know what they mean when there's actually no formal definition
Rafa sadly took away James from us… he was a joy to watch. a true definition of "a wand of a left foot"….😊
Days go and go, and riquelme remains as my favourite all time No 10❤
When i hear no.10 I ruminate over messi.
Modern 10 is the CF, hard pressing monsters like Firmino, De Bruyne, Muller, Benzema, etc.
Insigne the modern number 10 who worked wonders for Italy
Starting wide on the left with the licence to come inside between the lines when the full back comes up
What’s the point in a number 10 if he gives up when you’re loosing
Is Chelsea playing with two 6s and two 10s?
Didn’t torie donors pay for the reinvention of no. 10?!
The killing of creativity and beautiful football. Modern football is more boring every year.
Im surprised you didnt mentioned Thomas Müller, who became a number ten. He is a hard working and fluid midfielder. And his ability to find space between the lines makes him so hard to defend
5:24 looks like a W-M formation
1:38 ozil in arsenal.
Isn’t this was Insigne does for Italy currently right now? He’s a winger who loves to drift inside
I think it is possible to have traditional 10s and at the same time roles they do now days covered by inverting full backs to the center and half space
The reinvention of Classic No. 10= Hole Player in PES ⚽
So a 10 is pretty much what all my FIFA career players are: guys who run around randomly. But my FIFA players dont actually help the team. Also FIFA 14 is one of the best FIFA games ever with the best soundtrack, you cant change my mind about that.
I said this when 10s were out if fashion for a few years. The old 10s sat in zone 14 and distributed and cteate. Modern football (starting 15 years ago). Space and creativity was found by switching zones and positions. Overlaps, underlaps, deep 8s, false 9s. It was the lady static attacking position
These videos would be much better if they weren't so EPL obsessed. Pioli's Milan has been playing like this for a year and a half already turning Calhanoglu in one of the players (if not the one) with more key passes in Europe
Did I just see a number 10 video without any mention of the greatest number 10 of all time?
Nice video. You guys want to see a pure number 10? Watch for Juan Fernando Quintero. He is as great as Riquelme.
david silva predates these, he was the epl pioneer new 10
You’ll never see a number 10 like Messi again. The Greatest and Most complete player of the 21st Century.
So like a ‘ramdueter’ ?
Kind of semantics really. In plenty of those 4-3-3s, one of the wingers often played more inside like a 10. This is still the case. Some years, depending on the coach and the players around him, Messi is probably more of a 10 than anything else. They never went away. Like a lot of things in football and modern life in general, the definitions simply became blurred.
