    Are there any easier words to spell?

    "I pass and I move, I help you, I look for you, I stop, I raise my head, I look and, above all, I open up the pitch...The one who has the ball, is the master of the game...That's the school of Joan Vilà, of Albert Benaiges, of Johan Cruijff, of Pep Guardiola".

    "trequartista", literally "trequart" "ista" is...
    "trequart" is from the Italian word "treqaurti" which means 3/4, three-quarters, and "ista" denominates a person belonging to that category (much like the words "comunista"=communist or "fascista"=fascist).

    In this case "trequartista" denominates a player who plays 3/4 (three quarters) up the pitch. So not fully up front, but not exactly in midfield.

    Hope I helped with the explanation.

    CAM or number 10 don't need to get complicated, plus their quicker to type
