Spatial awareness is defined as "the ability to be aware of oneself in space".
Positional awareness is defined as "the understanding of positions of objects within an environment".

Alan Pardew, another manager who divides opinion, brings his Crystal Palace side to Anfield on the back of a good start to the season, albeit more inconsistent in recent weeks. The Eagles have won two, drawn one, and lost three of their previous six, although they were unlucky not to beat Manchester United last...

The title is not misleading; Liverpool dismantled Chelsea. Jurgen Klopp had a gameplan and executed it to perfection.
I would be lying if I said I was shocked at Liverpool truly putting Chelsea to the sword.
I have been confident about it this week and, had Christian Benteke been fit enough to start, people may have been...

Since the departure of Luis Suarez in the summer of 2014, only one man has claimed the title of Liverpool superstar: Philippe Coutinho. The little Brazilian has twisted, turned, and volleyed his way into the hearts of Kopites since his arrival on Merseyside in January of 2013. His quick pace, creativity, and laser-like accuracy...
