Unless your a striker that steals a ball and goes straight to score, otherwise your only as good as the player next to you.
The pass you make, or the pass you receive determines everything about the movement of play.
Balard, Niz, Steele, Tulio, Silvera and a few others are seemingly hit and miss because of this principle.
Our tactic is to go from the backs with a sweeping ball to wide front.
So much of our play is passing sideways as a tactic to draw the opposition in so we can go around them, rather than through.
I hate it but it makes our midfield look like they are not attacking well or making lovely diagonal balls through to strikers but simply every now and then when they do get on the ball facing forwards our opponent is well setup to close passing lanes because we are so slow getting it out of backline.
They are ready for us.
Start of season we were doing calculated risk counter attack football.
That has slowly died each game trying to play safer and safer as we loose confidence on the ball and end up chasing opponents counter attacks.
