Football Problem
We fail to identify when to apply effective pressure in the final third to stop teams playing out from the back
Session Objective
In this session I hope to acheive a better understanding in the roles of the 9,10,8,7 & 11 when teams play out from the back so we can win the ball back asap
Organisation
Set up as shown 7 V 6.
The red players players are trying to score in either of the three goals.
Blue players defend as a compact unit preventing oppostion from scoring in the three goals.
When blue win the ball they can use a maximum of 6 passes to score past the GK.
Progression
All passes must be played along the ground.
Limit touches for red team and for every ten completed passes the red team get an extra point,
blue team unlimited touches to score a goal
Bring blue team back to bottom of halfway line circle and play from the coach to the kepper to restart. this will help them take up position from an unorganised position
Team Task
All players to remain cohesive and compact when pressing opposition to the sideline
communicate when players havent taken up the correct position.
Player Tasks
11 or 7 blue to ensure they are close enough to 5 & 2 so they are not an option
9 or 10 blue start by pressing the ball carrier and forcing a certain direction.
Whoever isn't pressing out of 9 & 10 blue is to position them selves so the play does not get switched back through the keeper
8 Blue is to press hard on 8 if he drops in to receive the ball
11 to come across in support and take up a central position
Coaches Cues
Communication by coaching players in front of you (Delay, push right, push left, press high).
Are the players pressing on the correct player and stopping them playing out from the back
Are they dictating direction of play and setting the trap
Are the players shirt tight to their opposition
