Diagrams are easy to follow although I think a book called "Soccer: Modern Tactics" is far better than this as it covers more systems & interviews with Lippi, Ancelotti etc. Im sure most people will be able to learn something from this book. The set plays section is good

Good introduction to different strategies This book examines the different strategies and systems used in soccer. What I was looking for is something that examines the merits and demerits of each system in more detail than was present in this book. Good introduction to systems used by Barcelona etc. I may be unrealistic.
