Game plan 16:53 - Nov 22 with 510 views

Can someone please explain to me what it is we try to do by playing the ball backwards and across our goal for a lot of the game. Not wanting to complain I just want to try and understand better as to me it looks like we waste a lot of time doing this.

In theory, it should drag players into our half on the press and create room up the pitch for our attacking players. However, we advance the ball through the thirds so painfully slowly that they're well set again by the time we get anywhere near their box.

Exactly this. 0-0 against a really poor side who have no attacking intent. We should be bombarding them with shots. Getting the ball into the box at every opportunity.

You could see today at no point were Wrexham going to press us. But at times we just stood on the ball waiting for the press. Even from 20 mins onward by which time you could see they were never going attempt a press.

That’s where you need players to adapt not just do the main tactic they have been coached.

For this game we needed to be braver to commit more forward. Maybe would have been a better game for greaves and he could be committed forward into an extra midfield and 3 men on the left for attempting overloads. But no good if you are not going to attempt more one touch progressive passing.
