Prediction:

Total Football has its origin with the Ajax team. We’ve been reminded of that again and again with Jan Maas saying “it’s pronounced Cruyff.”

Richmond will start to see some success with the new strategy, and this will attract the notice of Dutch media. Rebecca will be interviewed, and Boat Man will realize who she is and come find her.

Also, total football was foreshadowed in season 2 with Jamie’s “I need to give my teammate some space” which he learned from Pep and who got it from Cruyff. (Yet another scene about healthy boundaries, which I maintain was the major theme from season 2)
