Sorry, just seen this Ross.

We haven't planned on it. We will see what footage we can get and either put a thread together or open a discussion.

Anything of particular interest to them?

Hi Nick,

We may change the title of this, as the practice is more aimed towards defensive organisation than transition. The transition is used to maintain the flow of the practice (enabling quick setup as teams change roles). You are right in that it is difficult for the defending team to recover, but it does create a habit of sprinting back.

The two yellow bibbed players are passive. This is to put the defensive and midfield units in game scenarios where central progression has been prevented, and play has been forced around. This is the purpose of the practice, in our opinion, how the defensive and midfield units defend when play has been forced wide. Obviously, we can't see or hear the actual technical coaching detail, but the practice provides this constant scenario. 

Let us know if you have any further questions.

Good morning

Two upcoming live streams have been added to the website; you are invited to attend, observe, and ask any questions. 

First up today at 4 pm (UK time), we will cover the Man City diamond press and Bernardo Silva's role. Using the Liverpool game from the weekend as the reference point, we will examine the roles of Man City individuals and units in the diamond press and how effective it is. We will also examine how Liverpool and other teams can manipulate this pressing system. 

This is free for subscribers and will be recorded for future reference. Non-subscribers can attend for a fee.

On Thursday, we will go live with our 'Talking Everything Football'  Episode 3.

We will discuss a coaching topic (TBA announced tomorrow). Please send any requests, and we will do our best to accommodate them. You can pre-register here.
