We will use an easy condition that will make our players close the interior spaces in a better way, to not allow the passing lines and to do not let the defenders get right in shape to defend deep balls.
Defensive support and Shifting
To attack a team that has already came back in shape and uses the counterattack as their way of attacking. High level of learning in vigilances and in offensive and defensive transitions.
Rondo + Small Sided Game
Is there a better combination of drills for your players’ enjoyment as a rondo + a small sided game? What if we include this in a drill where you practice the transition, support, making runs to lose the defender, dropping back and regroup, the game pace and working on the passing lines?
Small sided game – Third man
Tactical drill oriented to use, when attacking, by the third man and useful to practice the way of defending it.
4 Squares – Positional Game – 4 Goals
A tactical polarized drill based on the rational occupancy of the field. This is a good introduction to the position game for different playing systems.
Single Touch Finishing

Possession + Finishing
For the team that has won the ball back, is key to give support, to make runs to lose the marker and to look for the free men. For the defenders, the key is to press the player on the ball, to defend the passing lines and to identify the free men.

A good pressing and a defensive balance against the position game (Sarri, Guardiola, Nagelsman), with a rule which will make the offensive players to choose the right position in order to fix the defenders.
Ball Circulation and changing the pace
You will make your player achieve a higher tactical intelligence level by making him decide whether to progress with the ball or retain the ball looking for a better option to progress.
Speed of Play and Mobility of the players without the ball
In order to help the attack, the free players have to make decisions too in order to situate in the best position. This drill will demand a high concentration level from your players.
