Playing out (60 mins)

WARM UP - 30 MINS - with Yousif

Playing out vs HIGH PRESS (30 MINS)

- Ball starts with Andrew

- REDS look to play out from the back

- x1 RED CDM can drop in to recieve the ball

- Once REDS play into midfield it then becomes a 4v3 situation as 1 BLUE ATT can drop in

- REDS look to play into strikers feet -who needs to hold it up and bring others into play - let the REDS get forward in support

- x2 BLUES can make recovery runs to support BLUE defenders

- Can we create a goal scoring opportunity?

Can we beat the press to create an overload in midfield, which then creates an overload in the final 1/3 if we move it forward with purpose

IF THE BALL goes out of play, we restart from Andrew again

THURS SESSION WE WORK ON THE SAME THING BUT EMPHASIS ON HOW TO PRESS HIGH OURSLEVES AND NOT GET CAUGHT - SWITCH Nash, James into BLUE for Paps & Alec.

ALSO Liam for Boxy......We then work on how we can press high

Defending Long Ball (20 mins)

KEY POINTS

- If we lose the ball we need to transition into defence
