'I'm a guy with a napkin and a pen' - what do managers write down?
Briefly

Managers use various methods to record observations during games for tactical adjustments. Jose Mourinho emphasized the importance of taking notes at half-time to prepare interventions, ensuring he maximizes his impact on the team's performance.

He balances technology with the benefits of handwritten notes, indicating a blend of traditional and modern approaches in sports management.
