Àkoleoso

Àkoleoso (or Koleosoism; variously referred to as yọwọndè, or unshackled football) is a term used to describe a playing philosophy in association football, named for its main proponent, Cobre manager Marvelous Koleoso. The alternate names stem from the belief that the approach "unshackles" or "frees" players to act outside a rigid system, thus allowing for more dynamic approaches to problem solving in the myriad situations that can arise in a game.

History

Historically, Cobre football had been heavily influenced by Osarian tactical and philosophical stances, most notably the Osarian 4-3-3.
