If we start in kick off, I want us to go wide and play long balls. This can allow one of our full backs to go forward. When we make a pass, I want us to have 2 open players for short passes. For an example, if we win the ball from a failed attack from the opposition and our RCB wins it, I want our CDM and RB to get open. When I say get open, I don't mean to just get open. I want us to make a triangle shape. Always an open man on the right and left hand side for us to pass to. When we get the ball to our forwards, things changes. We can keep our other defenders and our CDM back while the CM's and Forwrads attack. I always want us to pass to our wingers so that they can carry the ball either on the side of the pitch so that we can cross it for our striker to hit or, our winger can dribble it to the centre and then our striker and winger can switch positions. This can confuse the defender on who to mark and then we can either pass it to the striker or a full back or just simply go for the shot on goal. If our winger decides to go straight of the side of the box, this can allow my full back to go run behind him and call for a pass which hopefully the full back can convert to a cross and a header or, our other winger can go centre with our striker and they can both get open for a ball. If that doesnt work, this is where the midfielders come into place. Which ever winger is with the ball, the midfielder that's on the same side of the pitch can go forward and ask for the ball. When this happens, I want one of our wingers and our striker to go make a run for a through ball which they hopefully could convert to a goal. Now if we're talking about the defensive side of our game, I want at least one winger to help out in defence. I also want our CDM to go in the defence and change the formation to a 5-2-3 instead of a 4-3-3. After this, I want us to stay back waiting for the opposition to come at us. When they get close to the 25 yard box, thats when we PRESS. Our full backs can mark the wingers while the centre backs and our CDM can take care of the strikers.
