In Ted Lasso, Coach Lasso refers to four factors that comprise 'Total Football'. He never explicitly explains the fourth.
1) Conditioning... teams must play "harder for longer"
2) Versatility... players need to be able to create and maintain space and move the ball and execute in a timely way.
3) Awareness... we discuss CARE in basketball... concentration, awareness (or anticipation), reaction, and execution. Some call the ability to see the board in chess chunking, the ability to relate the pieces and find the best path.
Coach Lasso never reveals the fourth factor. Danny says it is 'sacrifice' for the team. Ted says that's not it. The players keep searching.
