Oh My My .
From The Match Against 1F Just Now, I'd Say We'll Get Owned When We Have Interclass .
Why?
Many Reasons Why .
Here's What We Can Improve On, And How .
1. Corners.
Reason: During Corners, NOBODY, Or At Least 2-3 People Get Into The Box ONLY .
2 - 3? How'd Do You Expect Us To Score?
Further More, Too Many People Crowding Into The Midfield .
We NEED People To Go Forward, Into The Box .
Drag The Taller People In .
And Please, Get 1 Person To Stay Near The Corner Taker, For A Short Corner .
And Get At Least 2 People At The Other End Of The Field .
Why 2?
Support .
And, Try To Get AS MANY As We Can Up .
Leave 4 - 5 People At The 2nd And 3rd Parts Of The Field ( MidField And Defence )
This Away, We Can Get Our Corners To Be Like Unbeatable .
And Please, We MUST Get A Good Crosser .
People Like Daniel Need Not Apply .
We Need You UPFRONT, Not Taking Corners, Thank You .
2. Link Up Play .
Reason: See How Coordinated 1F Were?
They Were Using The Flanks To Practically Make Us Give Them Corners, And Their Attacks From The Wings Are Powerful .
We NEED To Link The Keeper, Defenders, Midfielders, Wingers And Strikers TOGETHER, And Effectively .
So, We Start From The Keeper .
DO NOT PLAY LONG BALLS .
Why?
Cause They'll Get Possession Easily From The Air .
So, Instead, Play Short Passes .
Pass To Any Defender, With A Full Back The Highest Prioritized Choice .
---The Full Back---
The Full Back Can Pass To The Winger Infront Of Him,
This Gives A Better Attacking Option, As We Can Beat Several Heads With A Good Placed Cross .
OR,
The Full Back Can Cross To The Other Wing, So He Can Link Up With The Other Winger .
---The Center Back---
Play The Ball Short, In Summary .
Choose Between Passing To An Open Defender, Or BEST, To A Nearby Midfielder, And Play A Short 1- 2 With Him .
---Wingers---
Wingers Attack From The Flanks .
We Need Great Crossing Abilities, And Great Finishing, Along With Great Footwork And Finally, Stamina And Speed .
Crossing .
We Need To Feed The Midfielders, The Strikers Or The Other Winger .
Finishing.
So You Can Put The Ball In The Back Of The Net When You See No Available Open Player .
Great Footwork .
Why? Because It's Nice! And You Can Trick And Frustrate The Hell Out Of Your Opponent .
LOL .
Stamina And Speed .
It's No Use If You Have No Stamina And Speed.
We Need Speed To Get Past Defenders Quickly, For Practically The WHole Game .
THis Is Where The Stamina Comes In .
---Midfielders---
DO NOT GIVE THE BALL TO THE OPPONENT .
Midfielders Need To Pass With Precise Accuracy .
No, No Need To Buy Nike's T90 Laser 3 .
We Need Passes To Build Up Attacks .
You Need Sharp Minds, And Trickery, And Pace .
We Need An Attacking Midfielder, And A Defensive Midfielder, Unless Of Course, We're Like Owning The Opponent .
A DM Controls The Whole Defense .
He's Like The Security Guard Of A Building, Guarding Any Straight Passes .
The CM/AM Must Have Good Long Range Skills, And Can Kill The Game Early With Several Good Long Range Goals .
---Forwards---
Forwards must Be strong .
And Of Course, Great Pace, Trickery, Skill, And FINISHING .
The Forward Must Also Link Up With The Midfielders And The Forwards, And Must Be Alert At All Times .
People Like Dion Need Not Apply For This Role .
3. Space .
Reason: We Do Not Have Enough Space .
No Space?
Make Space!
When Surrounded, Try Things Like What Kelvin Does .
Play The Ball To The Side, And Run At The Opposite Of The Ball .
I Can't Describe, So Get Kelvin To Show .
And We CANNOT Give Them Space .
Saw How That Tall China Guy Scored Against Joel With His Thunderbolt?
Nobody Pressed Him!
Throw Yourself INTO It!
Block The Ball Like It's Your Life!
Press Him, And Try To Get Hold Of Possession .
4. Set Pieces .
REASON: When Taking Set Pieces,
DON'T BOTHER To Do A Shawdow ( Or Fake, Or Whatever The Hell You Call It .)
Don't Because If You Touch It Accidentally, GG .
So, No Shadows .
Let The Taker Take It .
And Please, Be At LEAST 1 Or 2 People On The Left And Right Sides Of The Taker, And 1 At The Back Of Him .
This Ensures That If He Decides To Pass, We Have Players, Instead Of The Ball Going Out Or Something .
And When The Opponent Takes Set Pieces,
Here's What To Do .
Have A 5 Men Wall,
With 3 Jumping , And The Other 2 Standing Still .
Why?
As We Saw From Just Now, They Scored When We Were Jumping Up High!
And, Have People To Stand In The Goal .
Why?
To Clear The Ball, In Case .
And, Do NOT Stand Over The Line .
Why?
Because By Then, The Goal's Given .
So, Stand On The Line .
5. Marking .
REASON :
The Tallest And Strongest Defender, Mark The Tallest Player .
Simple Reason .
And Full Backs, Mark People Lurking At The Far And Near Post, Seeing Where The Corner Is Taken .
Center Backs,
Mark Potential Goal Scorers, Or Those Who Can Pop A Goal From nowhere .
Try Not To Get Handballs .
Formation : 4-1-2-1-2 ( 4 - 4 -2 / 4 - 3 - 3 )

---RB---- ---CB--- --- CB--- ---LB---

IGNORANCE .
