Pass and move

Recommended Posts

Loving the way this side passes and moves. Reminiscent of the late eighties and at times our opponents - even Man City at times yesterday- can''t do anything about it.  It''s a simple principle and I''m surprised teams don''t do it more. At it''s best it is unplayable.  The frustrating thing yesterday was when we didn''t do that, when players ran into trouble or just gave the ball away.  Against Everton we were brilliant at looking after the ball for large parts of that match and surely this is the way forwards for us as a team.  It''s maybe a hard thing to get players to do all the time, but it is the only way a side like ours will succeed - keep the ball with quick passing and moving, frustrate the opposition and nick the odd goal.  It''s how the team of the eighties built up such a good rapport with each other and it got better and better as the seasons progressed.  I can see something similar in this team as that principle becomes second nature. You might think players would do it automatically, but they don''t - it has to be made a definite main principle of a team''s coaching and drummed into them until it sticks.  We''ve all seen how some players in some teams don''t look interested half the time in a match, but we can''t afford that at this level and the pass and move principle is our way to success.  Just need one or more two goals to go in to cement the principle completely and start getting the results we deserve.
