No phrase in football has become more annoying to hear than ‘Double Pivot.’ It’s right up there with ‘low blocks’ as terms that weren’t really part of the lexicon a few years ago but are now completely overused and often misused by people who are trying to make themselves sound smarter.
Over time, the term has come to be strongly associated as meaning “playing with two defensive midfielders.” Yes, the way Louis van Gaal and David Moyes played it it meant two defensive midfielders but for the most part that’s just not the way it works.
