    Gary, nothing wrong with what you said but you might want to mention that as well as the team pressing high their goalkeeper should step up and be prepared to play like a sweeper keeper. One reason why Wimbledon were successful in the era you were talking about is that most goalkeepers tended to "hug" their goal line.

    I am happy he qualified defending high with the condition that your CBs are quicker than their CFs....Those Wimbledon strikers must have been mighty slow w/ G. Nev playing CB!!!

    As a wing back, even defensively, I am looking for a long ball pass as my first option. The playing fields in club football in New Zealand are so boggy and hard to run/dribble on, it almost becomes a prerequisite of your game as a defender. The back quarters of the playing fields are always chopped to peices by mid-season, the only way you can play fast touch running football is on the wings around half-way.
    As such, defending against the long all becomes natural to midfielders as well, as you expect most backs to have a dig and send the ball up the pitch, rather than pass to their nearest players. The only time this is different is at the start of the season. Our autumns are usually just cold rather than damp, so the ground is fairly solid, so the first pass to the player is used more often.
    You can tell the time of the year by how often teams play the long all from their defensive end.

      It actually works well in FM when you are playing against teams with slow target centers to press them as high as you can because they can't hurt you with their pace.

    Anybody that read his book should have known he wouldn’t make a decent manager. Knowing the game is one thing. Being a leader of men is another. See his recollection of the England “strike” back in the day. Hilarious. A very strange guy, fundamentally. And weirdly in awe of David Beckham

    This is quite disappointing from him in all honestly; he doesn't really say all that much aside from pretty obvious knowledge (like doubling on the flanks or keepers coming out for crosses), except lauding the ability and speed of his defensive teammates in comparison to their opponents... I know that Fergie wasn't the most tactical manager, but at the same time he was able to adapt, so I would've liked to have known more about how Fergie prepared them for these opponents, especially seeing as that was the dominant strategy in the Premier League at the time and not all times that played in that manner had slow forwards, even though they usually had one target-man. The high defensive line, narrow space between lines, and the offside trap had been in use throughout the nice as Sacchi had popularised it...he doesn't even mention the use of the sweeper keeper either which was also important aspect as well, or pressing the keeper and the defenders when they have the ball at their feet to not afford them time. But to be honest I've always found his tactical analyses as a pundit to be underwhelming, so it doesn't surprise me that he didn't succeed as a manager at Valencia; I feel like he's opinionated more than anything and very critical, plus he had a great playing career, so people respect him because of that mainly, but I've never really understood all the fuss surrounding him.

      Fergie didn't prepare for tactics he use, it always his assistants, he is man manager not a coaching manager.

      Yeah this is pretty basic old school football tactics when most English teams played long ball kick and rush football. Tactics have evolved way beyond this which is why he was totally out of his depth at Valencia.

    • @jackpuccini3143
      @jackpuccini3143 Před 8 dny

      @@SW-kr9fl I know that Fergie was astute but kept things simple tactically in terms of his instructions to his players, going from the books I've read and from testimonies of his Man United players, so they probably don't even get everything that was going on. Plus Queiroz was also often in charge of tactical meetings.
