Jamie and Martin get meta in this episode of The 3rd Circle as our ever-intrepid hosts try to sketch a more detailed outline of the dominant tactical paradigm.

Could it be that the reality we perceive as real is nothing more than a simulation? Are we all living in a box?

If we are, what is its nature? Why are we living in it? How might we escape?

The 3rd Circle offers up philosophical musings from Jean Baudrillard, Gilles Deleuze and Richard Rorty as we wander like nomads across football's own Desert Of The Real.

No stone is left unturned and no assumption is left unquestioned as we attempt to understand why football tactics might be about to undergo a fundamental paradigm shift.
