Phase 1 - Work in 4's - basic pass an move drill
Player A in the middle. comes through left or right gate to receive the ball -
Player B player starts with the ball at the end - trigger for the pass is the cm coming through the gate
Player B overlaps on the outside (the gate the CM has come through)
Player A plays pass into the path of player B, who passes the ball 1st time to player C
Focus - triggers, playing the pass in front of a runner, first time passing, playing with rythym
PHASE 2 - work in 6's -Triggers for overlapping full backs and defensive shape in possession
Player A in the middle (CM position) comes through left or right gate to receive the ball -
Player B (CM) player starts with the ball at the end - trigger for the pass is the cm coming through the gate - after the pass player B must move to white cone on the overlapping side
Player D or E (full backs) sets off on forward run when the ball leaves player B (you will know which side overlaps as you watch the cm come through the gate) the overlapping full back receives the ball, drives forwards to the red cone and passes into player C.
The opposite full back goes forward through the other gate (as if tucking in to form a back 3) and runs through to the other red cone.
The drill starts again from the other side, with the CM choosing a gate to come through.
Focus - triggers, positive combination play, forwards momentum, defensive shape in possession.

Play 1 cm + 3 (attack) vs 4 (defence)
There are 6 defensive positions - at any time 2 of the cones will be empty - but there should never be an empty cone between 2 defenders
The attacking 3 start with the ball on the half way line with a winger in possession - he is fronted up by the defending full back - who is showing him the line
The attacking winger plays the ball inside to a cm who then looks to switch play with a long ball into the vulnerable space behind the opposite full back.
The opposite full back needs to anticipate the switch and decide (on the position of the winger) if he can (A) steal it in the air, (B) pressure the first touch or (C) drop back and defend the space - not letting the winger get into the space behind him is very important.
1 of our CBs should always be spare, with one marking the CF. The spare CB should ideally be the one covering the full back (so he can deal with the ball pushed down the line). If the CB nearest the full back is marking (this is all about the position of the CF), then the CB should be prepared to leave his man to cover the space behind the full back and the spare CB steps up to pick up the CF.
The opposite full back (the one who started the phase high up) needs to track his winger all the way into the box.
Defensive positions in our half
Full backs - Defensively
1. The further away your man is from the ball, the more distance between you and him - no big gaps in the defence
2. Always open your body so that you can see ball and your man
3. Don't let your winger get in behind you
4. Be patient - stay stood up, stay goal side and block the cross
5. If you drop in to defend the box, and the switch doesn't come, you need to get back out. quickly
6. Defend the back post
