We didn’t play the same game every week, far from it, although the approach was predominantly counterattacking. The Derby match after lockdown was a good example of Sabri tactically outwitting his opponent by varying our approach several times during the 90. If our players hadn’t squandered several good chances we would have comfortably won.
Employing a low block defence to entice the other team forward so that spaces can be exploited on the counter means risking losing possession rather than attempting to keep the ball. When we had it we often quickly attacked opponents with long passes and by rapidly carrying the ball forward. Such an approach meant putting the ball at risk rather than playing safe and attempting to keep it.
