Elite managers, such as Hansi Flick at Barcelona, are increasingly adopting tactical flexibility by moving players into new roles to cope with injury crises. In the case of the Algerian national team, coach Ibrahim Hamdani is exploring similar shifts to address the shortage of center-backs following Aïssa Mandi's retirement. While earlier experiments with Fares Chaibi and Imad Abdelli did not yield the desired results, experts now suggest testing Abdelli or Touba alongside Ramy Bensebaini to solidify the defense. Furthermore, the coaching staff faces the challenge of finding consistent playing time for offensive talents like Boudad and Kebbal. By learning from the successful positional adjustments previously implemented by Belmadi and Petkovic, the team aims to utilize a dynamic tactical approach, essential for navigating the physical and mental demands of international football.
