Speed (Build Up Play)

Build Up Speed determines the speed at which the attacking team advances play in the first two thirds of the pitch. This not only changes the emphasis on Forward, Lateral, or Negative play, but also alters the urgency that teammates will have getting into forward positions. Slow - The team is patient building play, often passing the ball around in defence with players regularly passing backwards. Players are more selective in their runs going forward, and put the emphasis on finding good space over finding forward space.

Slow - The team is patient building play. often passing the ball around in defence with players regularly passing backwards. Players are more selective in their runs going forward. and put the emphasis on finding good space over finding forward space.

Balanced - The team does not build play particularly fast or slow.

Fast - The team looks to get the ball from back to front as quickly as possible. Players choose to position themselves in more advanced positions on the pitch. Players make more forward runs.

Passing (Build Up Play)

Build Up Passing Distance determines the general passing distance, and the style of support play from teammates in the first two thirds of the pitch. This changes the emphasis on long or short passes both on and off the ball.

Short - The team will try to build using short passes. Players closest to the ball possessor will come to support.

Mixed - The team does not build using a particularly short or long passing game.

Long - The team will look to play the longer ball, perhaps targeting a tall striker or looking for the ball over the top. Players farther from the ball possessor will attempt to find space. Close players will anticipate the long ball and push up to look for the knock down or flick on.

Positioning (ALL)

Build Up Positioning determines the freedom that players have to make runs. and support in positions that stray from their formation position in the first two thirds of the pitch.

Organised - Players tend not to stray too far from their assigned positions during the course of the match. The team maintains structure when building play.

Free Form - Players have the freedom to make runs out of position. For example, forwards can make more runs wide to collect the ball. fullbacks can make more overlapping runs. wide players can cut in more. central midfielders can make runs to the corner or overlap the strikers.

Passing (Chance Creation)

Affects the amount of risk the ball possessor takes when making passes to create chances in the final third. This also affects the emphasis on forward runs and support runs by teammates of the ball carrier.

Safe - To maintain possession. the team will rarely try a pass that may risk losing the ball. choosing to wait for the 'ideal’ opportunity. Players will ensure that the ball possessor has safe options when positioning themselves. and will wait for a good opportunity to make a penetrating run.

Normal - The team does not look to play particularly safe or risky.

Risky - The team will always try for the killer pass. Players look for every opportunity to make runs into space and behind the defence. Teammates won't be as concerned about ensuring safe options for the hall possessor.

Crossing (Chance Creation)

Affects the tendency and frequency for players to put crosses into the box. This also affects the timing of when players make runs into the box. and how many players will lookto get into the box to get on the end of a cross.

Little - The team tries to avoid crossing the ball. Instead they will try to play out of the crossing zone by passing back. or getting to the end line looking to cut the ball back to a teammate for a shot.

Normal - The team will put crosses into the box when there is a good opportunity.

Lots - The team try to get the ball into the box at every opportunity. The ball possessor will try to cross the ball early. Teammates will make earlier runs into the box.

Shooting (Chance Creation)

Chance Creation Shooting affects the number of shots that the team will take in the final third.

Little - The team will be patient, and only shoot if the opportunity is extremely good, instead opting to keep possession. Long shots will be rare.

Normal - The team will perform a variety of long shots and short shots depending on the situation.

Lots - The team will shoot at every opportunity. Teammates will make the extra effort to position themselves looking for shooting opportunities. for example, staying just outside the box and looking for a layoff, or positioning themselves for the cutback.

Pressure (Defence)

Defensive Pressure determines how high up the pitch the team will start to pressure the opposition.

Deep - The team will drop back and allow the opposition time in their own half in exchange for getting numbers behind the ball.

Medium - The team will start to defend in their opponent's half. but not the full length of the pitch.

High - The team will apply full pressure in their opponent's half. Wide midfielders and fullbacks will push high on the ball side to make it difficult for the opposition to play out. This tactic is effective but leaves lots of space open for the ball over the top behind the defence.

Aggression (Defence)

Defensive Aggression determines how hard the team will tackle and how much pressure is applied to the ball possessor. But be careful. high aggression can result in a higher number of fouls.

Contain - The team tries to contain the ball possessor. with players rarely diving into tackles or trying to outnumber the ball carrier.

Press - The team dives into tackles hard. and will slide whenever possible.

Double - The team will look to tackle fiercely and in numbers. sending an extra player to the ball possessor as often as possible.

Team Width (Defence)

Defensive width affects how much the team will shift to the ball side when defending.

Narrow - The team will defend compactly. Players will pinch in on the far side to cover teammates and allow for ball side pressure. When the ball is central the team will pack the middle of the pitch and allow more room on the wings.

Normal - The team will not try to defend particularly narrow or wide.

Wide - The team will not pinch as much. Players on the far side will mark opponents tightly, sacrificing cover in favor of making it difficult for the opposition to pull them out of shape.
