I would simply just not give the ball to the opposition under any circumstances.

It's a solid plan.

Rolling the ball to a full back making a run down the wing is playing from the back .
Attempting a long ball to a winger in space is playing it from the back .
Religiously getting the keeper to pass it to one of the two defenders stood next to him when everyone in the entire ground knows what he’s going to do is likely to get countered by the opposition.
Mix it up and let them second guess

There’s an art to it though, when Pep was at Barcelona and his goalie had the ball, both fullbacks would run down the line towards the halfway line, this took any opposition wide men also back to the halfway line, then the 2 centre backs would split, one left one right to the fullbacks position, again as most teams only play with one attacker he had to decide which one to follow,obviously leaving one free to receive the ball, but also the centre midfielders, Busquets, Xavi or Innesta, would then drop back to also be free to receive the ball, thus giving the goalkeeper various options as to who to pass to, now obviously if it’s one of the midfielders they are 99% of the time a better controller and passer of the ball so hopefully less chance of giving it away, but if they do by now the centre backs are back in a defensive position to voter any mistakes. Pretty simple really, cannot understand why town don’t do it this way!!!

But todays goal against came from us giving the ball away in their half and they just broke away.


How many times have we allowed the opposition do that this season. 😠
