Administrators Kyle Brown Posted October 21, 2021 Administrators Share Posted October 21, 2021 Do you have any more examples of recent managers deploying this tactic? While I can certainly see the benefits, given the schedules of u23 teams nowadays, I simply don't think they'd have the time to learn and deploy effectively the tactics of another team, and certainly not on a regular basis. I can't say I'm sure First XI's ever play the u23/u21's in practice out with preseason or international breaks? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
