Angus Osborne Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 I think over the years I have become fairly set in my ways with tactics, moderate possession/pressing going between 4-3-3. 4-2-3-1 and occasionally some 3 at the back formation depending on how the opposition line up. In season one with Sunderland I mostly used this, finding that more pressing too hard for the team: At higher levels I'd start making the passing shorter, up the tempo be more creative etc. However this time I'm managing Sunderland, champions of League One, and going into the 2022/23 season in the Championship the board wants me to: play defensively sound football make the most of set pieces play counter-attacking football I'd appreciate some advice on setting this up. I think I'll be able to do the first two parts OK, but I've never delved into playing on counter-attacking football that much. Going into preseason I'm planning on this set-up: Any thoughts?

Matt_1979 Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 I think the most important thing is having the room to counter attack into. Drop your line engagement? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
