Team talk:
Start of a new season and it’s time to hit the ground running. We are going to defend from the front, pressing the ball high up the pitch and winning it back early. Fazio – you are vital today, pick up Fellaini and use your height and strength to negate the threat of his. Offensively, we are going to keep the ball moving, and the players moving into space. Pass and Move!
Bardi Stand tall, come for crosses that are close to you making them need to aim crosses further out. Distribute short as much as possible.
Cassani & Maxwell You are part of a unit, so keep your shape and defend together. Pick up any wide players , keep tight and force them to cross from wide and deep as much as possible. Get forward whenever the opportunity arises, overlap the widemen and get crosses in. But never at the same time. One goes forward, the other stays back
Botia & Fazio – Botia will pick up the main striker. If Fellaini is playing further forward, Fazio will pick him up. If Fellaini is deeper, then Fazio will play spare, attacking high balls into the box and clearing up anything loose. He will then pick up Fellaini if he ventures further forward, and on set pieces. Pass it short into midfield when in possession
Gargano – Make a nuisance of yourself. Breakdown their attacks and protect the back four. When a full back goes forward, cover them by slotting alongside the CBs.
Verratti – Deep lying playmaker. Get on the ball as much as possible. Take it from the defence and Gargano and pass it around. Don’t give up possession easily and start attacks by feeding the wingers, and the two CFs. When we don’t have possession, support Gargano is protecting the back four
Afellay & Florenzi – You will play as widemen. Get on the ball, run at the defence, using all the tricks in your bag. Get the ball into the box for the forwards. When the ball is on the other flank go central to support the attack. Defensively, pressurise the ball as soon as we lose it and help the full back tracking the opposition wide players.
Mirallas & Tevez – Work as a partnership. Work hard and chase everything. When one of you goes deeper, the other goes further forward to provide an outlet. When one goes wide, the other goes central. Keep moving and don’t let the defenders settle, and keep them guessing. Defensively, pressurise the ball as soon as we lose it, Defence from the front today!

Allright lads its the first game of the season and we are facing Afro. We are gonna play with the 4-5-1 formation and play on the counter attack. We have Sam and Barnetta on the wings who have a fair bit of pace on them and will be the focal point of our attacking play.
GK- Shay Given
Experienced keeper, I want you to stay alert at all times and parry any shots that are too powerful to catch. Try and catch the ball if the opposition have a corner and quickly play it out to the wings to either Sam or Barnetta so they can initiate a quick counter attack.
RB - Mohamadou Dabo
Start off with a balanced mentality attacking/defending wise and see how well you are coping withe Brescia's Left Mid, probably Affelay, who used to be quiet a fast player but injuries have taken a toll on him and he has lost about a yard of pace so you should be able to deal with him without too much trouble. He will probably try and cut in from the right on to his stronger foot so I want you to close him down and put a tacke in if he does. Also I want you to help out Sam when attacking and make overlapping runs and get some crosses in to the box for Rodallega and Fellaini to use their aerial abillity to score a goal.
LB - Kieren Gibbs
Similar job to Dabo. Whoever you are up against you will prob have the beating of them pace wise so try and make them play on their weak foot and close them down if they try and take you on. Also support Barnetta by making overlappinjg runs and getting crosses in nto the box.
CB's - Rio Ferdianad + Lucio
2 experienced defenders who have the experience needed to play at this high intensity without feeling the pressure. I want you to defend deep as Brescia have some pretty fast forwards and they will try and exploit your weaknesses pace wise. They will probably be playing 1 upfront with Tevez or they might play Miralles with him with 2 upfront. Either way you both should easilly win the aerial battles with these 2 as you have a better height advantage and coupled with the fact neither Tevez or Miralles are known for their heading abillity you won't be greatly troubled aerially. Play the ball to the midfielders or do a long pass to pick out Fellaini, who is very hard to beat in the air.
DM's - M Diame + S N'Zonzi
2 physical players who will be tasked with closing down the Brescia attackers. Tevez will most likely come deep to collect the ball and I want one of you to close him down and snuff out his passes or tackle him if he tries to dribble past you. Diame will be allowed to play the ball out as he is a pretty good dribbler of the ball and if he sees an opportunity to shoot from long range then he should take it. N'Zonzi will play the full game just covering for our full backs who are in attacking positions and will look to play simple passes to the wingers.
Wingers - Sidney Sam + Tranquillo Barnetta
2 effective dribblers who will be the focal point of our attacks. Sam will probably be faced against Maxwell, who is not as quick as he used to be. I want you to to try and take him on and cut in from the right onto your stronger right foot and either whip a cross in or go for a shot if you are in a decent shooting range. Barnetta will most likely be up against Cassani which will be a more balanced duel. I want Barnetta to mix it up a bit and try and take on Cassani on the outside and sometimes cut in onto his right. I want both of you to be aware of Dabo and Gibbs overlapping runs and pass to them and play quick one twos. Track back when not in possession of the ball as Brescia will be deadly if we give them too much space.
Attack Mid - Marouanne Fellaini (BigFellasAfro)
The big man will look to use his physical strength to win the aerial duels and will be looking to play as a target ma. He will be aiming to control the ball if a longball is played from the back. I want you to make runs into the box if there is a ball crossed in and try and score a headed goal. Pass the ball to the wingers and shoot if you see an opportunity.
Centre Forward - Hugo Rodallega
Play on the shoulder of the defenders and try and make space and peel away from them so you have a better chance to shoot. Try not to be in an offside positon and be aware of where the ball is at all times. Play the ball to your teammates if you are closed down.
Subs if LOSING BY 65MINS -

TT: It’s the first game of the season and I want you to go out there and give the fans a good performance and show them there is so kinda of hope this season as we try and go for the title but go out there and give it your all!
GK: Watch your ground and try and make yourself big when 1 on 1 also during corners only come out if you think you can catch the ball or if you can clear it.
Defenders: We need lots of communication keeping a solid back-line. So try and clear our lines when possible. Cb’s Defend through the middle to stop play in the middle use Kehl who is in DM to help out and make sure to watch the sides (RB/LB) where they will try and beat you through pace but try and force them wide and stand your ground and tackle for the ball if you can, try and also to limit their chances that are created on the wings.
Kehl: stay back and try and help the back four, I want you to collect any lost balls or to win them in you can and try and cause a counter attack by getting the ball to Xhaka/Strootman or the wings, don’t be afraid to tackle to win the ball if you can and if they are playing an AM try and cause physical chances at him so he loses the ball or try and force him to a mistake.
Strootman/Xhaka: use set-pieces wisely and try to create an attack through them. Attacks start from you two and I need you to try and get passes into the spaces for wingers and balls to strikers, all so you can use short passes to get the ball to each other and around hence opening play and space for winger/strikers.
Wingers: I need you to uses your pace to get past their players and whip in crosses for the striker, also try and look to come inside to the middle as this will help us draw fouls, also if you see an opening cut in and take a shot.
Striker: try and open up play by getting into spaces and look to get behind their defense as well as linking up play, this will help create chances and give us ways to become dangerous, beware of any crosses and be sure to capitalize on them when given the chance, try and link up with other players if possible as well.

TACTICS
We need to start this campaign with a win. We have a mixture of experience and youth in our side, and today we should look to dominate the midfield battle. We need to quickly get our skillful players up to support Shaqiri and target Sorensen who is a weak link at the back.
DEFENSE
Petric is likely to play as a lone striker, and if that happens, then we should look to play a high line. Petric is not a quick player and we have players who are quick enough to get back, particularly Musacchio. Rafinha and Cissokho should jockey their wingers, likely to be Herrman and Großkreutz wide, particularly Großkreutz as he likes to cut in on his stronger foot. If he can't cut in, then he will be attempting crosses with his weaker foot. Schwegler should stay deep in between the back four and a midfield four who will be grouped in two lines. He will watch for runs from midfield and ensure the likes of Strootman and Xhaka have no space to work in. Cleverley and Trochowski will form the main midfield line, which will hold position and pressure when they ge into our half, rather than man-marking and chasing lost causes, we will work as a team to close down when they come into our half. When we get the ball, we should be quick to hit on the break, bursting forward and having the four midfielders supporting Kießling quickly. Out wide their full backs will charge forward and we can hit them on the counter attack there as they will leave large spaces in behind.
ATTACK
Kießling should look to use the line. Sorensen isn't that experienced so deliberately get in front of him and look to draw fouls to win free kicks from shooting range, be quick the pass the ball and look to be a target man in the box. Ben Arfa should take on the full back, and get balls into the box. On occasion swap places with Trochowski, get right inside supporting Kießling and use your pace to get in. Trochowski and Cleverley should play as box to box midfielders, so should look to get forward, check each other's runs and they should take it in turns to get right up supporting Kießling. Schwegler will stay back to ensure they cannot hit on the counter attack. Rafinha and Cissokho should get forward on every occasion, especially Rafinha who has chemistry with Shaqiri, this allows the latter to get inside. Shaqiri is equally capable with both feet so should sometimes go wide and get the ball into the box, on other occasions cut inside and shoot or lay the ball off to Cleverley.
SUBSTITUTIONS
If winning bring on Giggs for Trochowski to be the experienced head in the middle, pass the ball around and keep possession.
If drawing or losing bring on Peterson to partner Kießling in attack, withdrawing Trochowski. Go to a simple 4-4-2 and play in two banks of four, Cleverley should get forward at every opportunity.

Snodgrass and Jarvis - Big role for you two today. I want you to work back and double up with the FB's in defence, but in attack I want you to either stay out wide for a ball from Nolan/Nocerino, and whip in the world class crosses you can, or gamble on Crouch's flick ons, and get in behind and score.
Crouch - Ok big time for you today. I want you to be physical, if the ball comes to your chest, look to get it off to Nolan or the wingers. If not, flick it on for the runners in behind. If you get a chance to shoot, you can put em away like the best of them. Need you today Peter, show me you deserve to be first team!

Team Talk:
Attack, attack...attack, attack, ATTACK!
We’re going into our opening fixture against our Spanish rivals and we wish to showcase a high pressure, pacey and determined side that can challenge for trophies. We’re looking to emulate the success of Bilbao in real life last season with a similar style and set-up of high fullbacks marking the wingers and short passing at speed. Look to utilise the chemistry built on the wings between the 4 Bilbao players.
GK: Make yourself big on shots, command your box and instruct your defence. Look to release the ball early to our fullbacks to create counters.
WBs: Take a high line marking the wingers and look to push them back into their own half where possible. Both have excellent control of the ball and are comfortable at feet so look to work with our attack to maintain pressure.
CBs: Rather than marking & reacting to attacks the emphasis is upon pressurising the opponent to regain control of the ball early and to then launch back at the opposition. If the opposition have a lone striker then it’s 2 on 1, if they play 2 up front then Aurtenetxe is to come narrower and make 3 on 2.
DM: Tiote in the enforcer role, after taking Spanish lessons all summer he’s now fluent in the lingo and ready to chip in. Look to harass their creative players immediately as they get the ball and force them into losing possession.
CM: Michu to take the creative playmaker role from deep, use his intelligence to move the ball about to the fast paced options in front of him and dictate the flow of the game, at over 6ft then also to use his physical presence to dominate the midfield with Tiote.
AM: Herrera to play 1 touch football with the options around him, the excellent chemistry with Susaeta & Muniain should allow them to unlock the defence of Chorizo, use vision and technique to thread balls past the FBs into space. When not in possession then pressurise the opposition immediately.
WGs: Work with both our FBs & Herrera against their defence with speed and fluidity to overwhelm them. Play high up the pitch to force them further and further onto the back foot and look to win the ball back early to maintain this. If opposite winger has the ball then look to go into the box to provide options.
ST: Hard work and perseverance today for one of the inform stars in La Liga, be a constant thorn to their CBs by not letting them settle and make them release the ball early. Be constantly moving so any markers follow you to create further space for the incoming wingers.
SUBS: Gabriel, Koke, Suarez, Alcacer, Rodrigo, Deulofeu, Jese
If losing at 70m: Koke + Jese on for Michu & Hemed, further youth with 1 touch passing and movement skills to increase the pressure in their half of the pitch
If winning at 80m: Koke on for Hemed, Koke to flood the midfield whilst operating without a pure striker as Herrera, Muniain & Susaeta break forward.

Team Talk: First game of the season today lads so lets start with a win, Total Juan Carrs have a great young team but if we overload them they will struggle. As always keeping a clean sheet must be the first objective as this will ensure that our attacking players can win the game for us. Isco inparticular will be key as he will keep Tiote guessing.
Hilário: Keeping a clean sheet is key, come and claim any crosses that come in
Gámez/Monreal: Force their wingers wide and force them to beat you if they want to get a cross in. When we have the ball look to sensibly support the team.
Puyol/Domínguez: Puyol to mark their striker and prevent him from settling, use your experience to get the better of him. Domínguez to sweep and pick up any runners from deep.
Albelda/Custódio: Albelda to stay with their CAM/SS and stop him from paying, like Puyol I want you to use all your experience against the youth of Total Juan Carrs. Custódio to watch for the wingers cutting in/runners from deep but also to be the starting point for all our attacks. I want him to look to release our attacking flair.
Isco: You're our key man today and you have quite a free license to roam. Prevent Tiote from picking you up by dropping deep before bursting forward. I want you to make the difference today and make sure that we always have the numerical advantage going forward.
Tello/Callejón: Torment their fullbacks for the whole 90 minutes and keep them guessing. Alternate between driving inside and going out wide. When out wide look to whip in crosses for Soldado to get on the end of. When you drive inside look to link up with Isco to pass our way through their defence.
Soldado: You're the sort of striker that doesn't need many chances in order to score so I want you to take as many of the ones we produce today. Try and roam between the two cbs so that one doesn't settle on you. Look to shoot whenever you get a sniff. Isco will be there to support you.

TT: It's the second game of the season and this is a winnable game we have a strong enough side to try and win this game, do it for the fans show them what you have got after a strong performance last week even though we lost dont let that get you down and go out there with confidence.
GK: Watch your ground and try and make yourself big when 1 on 1 also during corners only come out if you think you can catch the ball or if you can clear it.

Kehl: , I want you to collect any lost balls or to win them in you can and try and cause a counter attack by getting the ball and trying to get the ball to the wings, don’t be afraid to tackle to win the ball if you can and if they are playing an AM try and cause physical chances at him.
Xhaka: use set-pieces wisely and try to create an attack through them. Attacks start from you and I need you to try and get passes into the spaces for wingers and balls to strikers.
Wingers: I need you to uses your pace to get past their players and whip in crosses for the striker, also try and look to come inside to the middle as this will help us draw fouls, also if you see an opening cut in and take a shot.
Strikers: try and open up play by getting into spaces and look to get behind their defenseas well as linking up play, this will help create chances and give us ways to become dangerous, beware of any crosses and be sure to capitalize on them, Szalai use your fantastic form to try and get the goals for us as well at Petric.[/b]

Tactical Instructions:
Di Gennaro - You are a young agile keeper. You can make all the saves, but I want you to be confident in your abilities today. Command your defence. When distributing hit the full backs early, or Yacob. Look to distribute down our left side to take advantage of there weak right side.
Hibbert and Garrido - I want Hibbert to be a little more restricted today. However Garrido I want you to push on more, to help take advantage of there weaker right side. But it is paramount that when they have the ball, you tuck into a narrow back four, and keep a solid line. When distributing either hit the midfield three or your winger.
Ranocchia and Bassong - I want you two to be strong today. Bassong pick up the main man, if there is two up top then both pick up. Lead the line, dominate your forwards. Safety first defending today. When distributing look to give it into the midfielders, so they can build from there.
Yacob - Your job is to screen the back four today. If they play an AM, nullify his game. Look to get the ball and give it to Pirlo/Marchisio so they can pull the strings. Big job today, you are our anchor man.
Pirlo and Marchisio - Ok you two will control the game for us today. I want Pirlo to be a little more restricted, allowing Marchisio to push on and support Fletcher. Look to distribute out to our left side when possible, it's there weaker side. In defence, keep a solid shape, communicating with Yacob. Go out there, dictate a quick tempo for us, and show the 606v2 world your quality.
Snodgrass and Jarvis - Big role for you two today. I want you to work back and double up with the FB's in defence, but in attack I want you to either stay out wide for a ball from Pirlo.Marchisio, and whip in the world class crosses you can. Don't be afraid to cut inside and shoot. Jarvis link up with the overlapping Garrido, and cause there weakened RB havoc.
Fletcher - Go out there and win us this game Steven. Look to get on the end of crosses from out wide, be clinical in front of goal. Also put in the shift of your life for the team today. Do not let there CB's rest.
Free kicks - Pirlo - Whip in some sexy crosses for us.
Corners - Pirlo - As above
Pens - Pirlo - Put em in the back of the net. It's not that hard.

Team Talk:
Attack, attack...attack, attack, ATTACK!
Unlucky last week against our Spanish rival but we must remain upbeat and look to continue in our philosophy of fast paced and pressurising football high up the field, with Hemed up front (12 goals in 12 games in RL) assisted by the Bilbao trio of Herrera, Susaeta and Muniain we shall score!
GK: Make yourself big on shots, command your box and instruct your defence. Look to release the ball early to our fullbacks to create counters.
WBs: Take a high line marking the wingers and look to push them back into their own half where possible. Both have excellent control of the ball and are comfortable at feet so look to work with our attack to maintain pressure.
CBs: Rather than marking & reacting to attacks the emphasis is upon pressurising the opponent to regain control of the ball early and to then launch back at the opposition. If the opposition have a lone striker then it’s 2 on 1, if they play 2 up front then Aurtenetxe is to come narrower and make 3 on 2.
DM: Tiote in the enforcer role, look to niggle Fellaini's long legs early on and keep him in your pocket all game, don't let him get into his stride and look to hit him early and fast.
CM: Koke to assist with Tiote in the break up of play, use his intelligence to move the ball about to the fast paced options in front of him and dictate the flow of the game.
AM: Herrera to play 1 touch football with the options around him, the excellent chemistry with Susaeta & Muniain should allow them to unlock the defence of Bradistan, use vision and technique to thread balls past the FBs into space. When not in possession then pressurise the opposition immediately.
WGs: Work with both our FBs & Herrera against their defence with speed and fluidity to overwhelm them. Play high up the pitch to force them further and further onto the back foot and look to win the ball back early to maintain this. If opposite winger has the ball then look to go into the box to provide options.
ST: Hard work and perseverance today for one of the inform stars in La Liga, be a constant thorn to their CBs by not letting them settle and make them release the ball early. Be constantly moving so any markers follow you to create further space for the incoming wingers.
SUBS: Gabriel, Michu, Suarez, Alcacer, Rodrigo, Deulofeu, Jese
If losing at 70m: Michu + Jese on for Herrera & Hemed, further youth with 1 touch passing and movement skills to increase the pressure in their half of the pitch
If winning at 80m: Koke on for Hemed, Koke to flood the midfield whilst operating without a pure striker as Herrera, Muniain & Susaeta break forward.

Good games last week guys. We won our first point of the season against a strong Under Brescia side. Lets keep up the momentum with another good performance against Hero and his Juan Carrs. Judging from last weeks match, Hero will play a 4-3-3 formation. I want you to exploit his lack of cover for his full backs and play through the wings.
GK- Shay Given
Experienced keeper, I want you to stay alert at all times and parry any shots that are too powerful to catch. Try and catch the ball if the opposition have a corner and quickly play it out to the wings to either Pennant or Barnetta so they can initiate a quick counter attack.
RB - Martin Kelly
Start off with a balanced mentality attacking/defending wise and see how well you are coping with the Left Mid, probably Muniain, who is a good dribbler of the ball but is a little lightweight so I want you to use your physical advantage to win the 1v1 duels. He will probably try and cut in from the right on to his stronger foot so I want you to close him down and put a tackle in if he does. Also I want you to help out Pennant when attacking and make overlapping runs and get some crosses in to the box for Rodallega and Fellaini to use their aerial abillity to score a goal.
LB - Kieren Gibbs
Similar job to Kelly. Whoever you are up against you will prob have the beating of them pace wise so try and make them play on their weak foot and close them down if they try and take you on. Also support Barnetta by making overlappinjg runs and getting crosses in nto the box.
CB's - Rio Ferdianad + Lucio
2 experienced defenders who have the experience needed to play at this high intensity without feeling the pressure. Whoever you are up against I want you to stick close to their striker/s and not give him any space. Either way you both should easilly win the aerial battles with these 2 as you have a better height advantage you shouldn't be greatly troubled aerially. Play the ball to the midfielders or do a long pass to pick out Fellaini, who is very hard to beat in the air.
DM's - M Diame + S N'Zonzi
2 physical players who will be tasked with closing down the Brescia attackers. Watch out for the attacking runs of their midfielders. Diame will be allowed to play the ball out as he is a pretty good dribbler of the ball and if he sees an opportunity to shoot from long range then he should take it. N'Zonzi will play the full game just covering for our full backs who are in attacking positions and will look to play simple passes to the wingers.
Wingers - Jermaine Pennant + Tranquillo Barnetta
2 effective dribblers who will be the focal point of our attacks. Pennant will probably be faced against Aurtenetxe, who is a young inexperienced left back. I want you to to try and take him on and put a cross in from the byline or go for a shot if you are in a decent shooting range. Barnetta will most likely be up against Montoya, which will be a more balanced duel. I want Barnetta to mix it up a bit and try and take on Montoya on the outside and sometimes cut in onto his right. I want both of you to be aware of Kelly and Gibbs overlapping runs and pass to them and play quick one twos. Track back when not in possession of the ball as the opposition will be deadly if we give them too much space.
Attack Mid - Marouanne Fellaini
The big man will look to use his physical strength to win the aerial duels and will be looking to play as a target ma. He will be aiming to control the ball if a longball is played from the back. I want you to make runs into the box if there is a ball crossed in and try and score a headed goal. Pass the ball to the wingers and shoot if you see an opportunity.
Centre Forward - Hugo Rodallega
Play on the shoulder of the defenders and try and make space and peel away from them so you have a better chance to shoot. Try not to be in an offside positon and be aware of where the ball is at all times. Play the ball to your teammates if you are closed down.
Subs if LOSING BY 65MINS -

Team Talk: After a great win last week we need to make sure that we build on this against a very strong Bratwurst team. I want us to try and keep the ball and to be patient, doing this will allow us to use the trickery of Isco, Suso and Callejón to unlock the Bratwurst defence. Fortunately they are without Ben Arfa this week but they still have players that can hurt us such as Shaqiri, fortunately we have Monreal who can nullify the threat he presents.
Hilário - Command your box, look to claim any crosses that come in.
Monreal/Gámez - As mentioned in the team talk Monreal is to stick to Shaqiri especially if he is sticking wide. Gámez to do the same to whomever is playing wide left (If Shaqiri is playing on the left then Gámez to mark him). Make sure that any forward runs are done in a fassion that guarentees that you are back so we are never outnumbered.
Puyol/Domínguez - Puyol to mark Kießling who will probably be a lone striker, use your experience to make him anonymous. Domínguez to sweep/pick up second striker/pick up runners. Communication is key.
Albelda/Beñat - Albelda to pick up Cleverley and use all of your experience to negate his game, he'll look to burst forward so watch for that. Beñat to bustle their midfielders when they are on the ball and to force mistakes. When we have the ball Beñat is the starting point for our simple passing football, look for the triangles and Isco inparticular.
Suso/Callejón - Alternate between going outside and driving inside, feel free to switch wings to prevent their fullbacks from settling. This is particulalry important on the right as Bratwurst are without their first choice left back. When you go wide look for Soldado, when inside link up with Isco and pass it around their defenders.
Isco - After running the show last week I want you to do it again this week! Prevent their dcm from settling onto you by roaming. Come deep to pick up the ball if you wish as well as going further up the pitch to link up with Soldado. In defence, get back to make sure we have 3 vs 2 when they have the ball.
Soldado - Use your great movement to prevent either Bratwurst cb from marking you out of the game. Isco/Suso/Callejón will all be there to link up with you. Finally be at your predatory best and look to finish any chances that come your way, there should be many!

TEAM TALK
We got a good win in the first game, let's follow it up with a second win. Simple approach today with a 4-4-2, no need to get more complicated. They look weak in midfield and look short of creativity with Albelda and Van Bommel. They will be sluggish on the ball, similar to the real life Holland team and we should take advantage of that. When Isco gets the ball we have to be quick to close him down.
DEFENSE
Soldado is likely to play as their main striker, and the two centre backs should not allow him to win anything in the air using their height advantages and be always on his case, don't allow him to turn or anything. Westermann should lead by example at the back. Contento and Rafinha should get on the edges of the box, don't dive in, the crucial thing is to not allow the wingers to cut inside, and to ensure that they can't get a shot away.
Isco is their main playmaker and he should be kept quiet. If he plays centrally, as we expect, then Cleverley or Casemiro should stick tight and use their high energy to maintain this. They can switch it around to give each other rests, just do not allow Isco a second on the ball. If he plays wide then Giaccharini should play on that wing (may have to swap sides with Shaqiri) and double up.
ATTACK
Casemiro should hold so Cleverley can get forward as a box to box midfielder. He should look for passes to the front men. Shaqiri should have a go at Monreal who isn't the most skillful of players and isn't that quick and is good with either foot so look to go either way. Giaccharini should look to consistently cut inside onto his stronger foot.
Kießling should put in the same performance as last week, use the height advantage over both centre backs to win the headers, especially Puyol who is much shorter, and Lima can do the same there at times. Lima is the quicker of the front men so have a go and show a burst of pace. Both of the strikers can score goals and should show that today, Kießling more as a target man and Lima to work the channels, and make runs across to the defense to draw spaces. They have a goalkeeper in Hilario who isn't good enough at this level and we should take plenty of shots to test him and be prepared to quickly pounce on any mistakes he makes, we can get an easy goal here and both of our strikers can get into the right place at the right time.
SUBSTITUTIONS
If winning then bring on Schwegler for one of the front two just to help us dominate the midfield. Look to keep the ball and close the game out. Cleverley and Casemiro have more license to go forward, and if the opportunity arises attack on the counter.
If drawing then bring on Giggs for Contento. Giaccharini moves to a wing back position and along with Rafinha, should attack more and Giggs and Shaqiri should also get loads of balls into the box for the front two to get on the end of.
If losing then bring on Peterson for Shaqiri. Casemiro should hold, while Giaccharini and Cleverley should also be in central midfield positions with license to get forward as much as possible. The full backs should always push up with three players in the box who can score from headers. 4-3-3, get the goals to get back into the game.

Team talk:
An okay start last week, but we need more from everyone to turn the draw into wins. We defend from the front, pressurising a team who we don’t feel will be comfortable on the ball under pressure. Attacking, Verratti dictates play, using our AM trio to exploit the gaps in the Alan Partridge defence. Tevez will look to run in behind. They will either defend deeper, creating more space for our AMs or stay high meaning we keep going in behind.
Bardi Stand tall, come for crosses that are close to you making them need to aim crosses further out. Distribute short as much as possible.
Torosidis & Maxwell You are part of a unit, so keep your shape and defend together. Pick up any wide players , keep tight and force them to cross from wide and deep as much as possible. Toro, we expect you against Bastos, so you are selected for your engine to get up and down the pitch with him. Get forward whenever the opportunity arises, overlap the widemen and get crosses in. But never at the same time. One goes forward, the other stays back
Botia & Fazio – We are expecting Holt to play up top, so we can play a higher line against him. Fazio will pick him up using his height and strength to stop him getting a hold of the ball. If there is a second striker, Botia will pick him up, or play as the spare man to sweep up any balls in behind, or to pick up the midfield runners.
Matip – Breakdown their attacks before they get going. When a full back goes forward, cover them by slotting alongside the CBs. Pick up the opposition AM and don’t give them time on the ball.
Verratti – Deep lying playmaker. Get on the ball as much as possible. Take it from the defence and Matip and pass it around. Don’t give up possession easily and start attacks by feeding the attacking players, looking to play it in behind their defence. When we don’t have possession, support Matip is protecting the back four
Afellay & Mirallas – You will play as widemen. If they defend high, get in behind, if they go deeper, run at them exploiting the space. Move inside to create space when the full back overlaps. When the ball is on the other flank go central to support the attack. Defensively, pressurise the ball as soon as we lose it. If the opposition FB goes forward, help out your FB in picking him up.
Maher – Play in support of the striker. We are expecting two ball winning midfielders, so drag them around and create space for Afellay and Mirallas coming inside. On the ball, look to play balls into the channels for Afellay, Mirallas and Tevez. When in space on the edge of the box, have a go. Defensively, pressurise the ball as soon as we lose it
Tevez –Provide the focal point for the AMs to play off of. Make runs in behind onto balls from the AMs. They will either play high, or drop deeper, either way, keep doing it! Defensively, pressurise the ball as soon as we lose it, Defence from the front today!

So we are now heading into our second game of the season, we didnt get the result that we would have wanted but it was a very narrow defeat and something iam sure we can bounce back from. I have kept the body of the team the same as you can see, as I feel the experience of getting to know each other is good and will help us in the long run. so again I want you so I want you to fight for every ball, make them pay for any mistakes they make. AHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Goalkeeper tactics
* Make yourself heard
* Make your self big in the goal
* talk to your defence,Keep them organised
* Get ball up field as quick as possible.
* Use Agility to make saves.
Defensive Tactics
* Midfielders must try to drop back to help the back four
* Track players who could pose a threat on goal.
* When in doubt get the ball out of play and as far up the pitch as possible.
* Keep line and talk to each other at all times
* Stop them getting down our wings and dont allow them the space
* help each other out as much as possible and dont do anything stupid to put us in danger
Attacking Tactics
* Pass the ball around as much as possible and cut through there defence and midfield.
* Play down the wings, using pace
* If a player is in a better position to get a shot away allow them too.
* Pick up any loose passes and make them pay for it.
* aim to get the ball to the feet of holt as this is where he is most dangerous, he can also cause trouble with ariel balls so this isnt nesciarily a must, but should be an aim
* keep up the pressure when we have possesion and dont give it away cheaply

Team talk:
Two wins and a draw, so lets keep the momentum going. We are aiming to frustrate the opposition by retaining possession and stopping their attacks before they get going. Attacking we will use the patience and calmness on the ball of Verratti and Maher to keep hold of it until opportunities arise, and then when they spot an opening, the pace of the front three to strike quickly. Defensively, we press early and high up the pitch to stop the opposition attacks from getting past the halfway line. The aim is to get the ball back as quickly as possible
Bardi Stand tall, come for crosses that are close to you making them need to aim crosses further out. Distribute short as much as possible.
Maxwell & Cassani You are part of a unit, so keep your shape and defend together. Pick up any wide players , keep tight and force them to cross from wide and deep as much as possible.. Get forward whenever the opportunity arises, overlap the widemen and get crosses in.
Botia & Matip – We are expecting Rodrigo as a lone striker today so Matip has been selected for his pace and will pick him up. If they play two strikers, then the Botia will pick them up, otherwise play as the spare man sweeping up.
Gargano – Breakdown their attacks before they get going. The full backs will bomb forward so cover them by slotting alongside the CBs. If the opposition play an AM, pick him up.
Verratti & Maher – Deep lying playmakers. Get on the ball as much as possible and keep possession. Take it from the defence and Gargano and pass it around. Don’t give up possession easily and look to feed Mirallas, Afellay and the FBs. Defensively support Gargano and the CBs to allow FBs to push forward to provide width. Press the ball and win it back as quickly as possible.
Afellay & Mirallas – You will play as inside forwards. Get the ball from the midfield and run at the defence. Look to play Cassano in behind, or the full backs in when they overlap. When the ball is on the other flank go central to support the attack. Defensively, pressurise the ball as soon as we lose it..
Cassano – Focal point of the attacks today, the 18 yard box striker. Look to run in behind and get onto balls into the box from the creative players. Defensively, pressurise the ball as soon as we lose it, Defence from the front today!

Team Talk:
Attack, attack...attack, attack, ATTACK!
Unlucky last week against our Spanish rival but we must remain upbeat and look to continue in our philosophy of fast paced and pressurising football high up the field, with Rodrigo assisted by the Bilbao trio of Herrera, Susaeta and Muniain we shall score!
GK: Make yourself big on shots, command your box and instruct your defence. Look to release the ball early to our fullbacks to create counters.
WBs: Take a high line marking the wingers and look to push them back into their own half where possible. Both have excellent control of the ball and are comfortable at feet so look to work with our attack to maintain pressure.
CBs: Rather than marking & reacting to attacks the emphasis is upon pressurising the opponent to regain control of the ball early and to then launch back at the opposition. If the opposition have a lone striker then it’s 2 on 1, if they play 2 up front then Aurtenetxe is to come narrower and make 3 on 2.
DM: Tiote in the enforcer role, look to niggle Fellaini's long legs early on and keep him in your pocket all game, don't let him get into his stride and look to hit him early and fast.
CM: Koke to assist with Tiote in the break up of play, use his intelligence to move the ball about to the fast paced options in front of him and dictate the flow of the game.
AM: Herrera to play 1 touch football with the options around him, the excellent chemistry with Susaeta & Muniain should allow them to unlock the defence of Bradistan, use vision and technique to thread balls past the FBs into space. When not in possession then pressurise the opposition immediately.
WGs: Work with both our FBs & Herrera against their defence with speed and fluidity to overwhelm them. Play high up the pitch to force them further and further onto the back foot and look to win the ball back early to maintain this. If opposite winger has the ball then look to go into the box to provide options.
ST: Hard work and perseverance today, be a constant thorn to their CBs by not letting them settle and make them release the ball early. Be constantly moving so any markers follow you to create further space for the incoming wingers.
SUBS: Gabriel, Michu, Suarez, Alcacer, Deulofeu, Montoya
If losing at 70m: Michu + Deulofeu on for Herrera & Rodrigo, further youth with 1 touch passing and movement skills to increase the pressure in their half of the pitch

------------------- Soldado -----------------------
Team Talk: After a great win in the cup last week we face a dogged Bunga Bunga side, they will look to Pirlo at every opportunity so we will deploy Albelda to mark him out of the game. Outside of that we have a defence that can fully negate their attacking threat and attacking players that can really hurt them. We will attack their fullbacks at all opportunities as this is somewhere that Bunga Bunga struggle. Callejón and Tello can torment them all day as well as looking to link up with Isco and Soldado against their weak center backs. Finally, and as always, look to keep possession as much as possible as Bunga Bunga are likely to just be lumping it up field so lets make them chase the ball.
Hilário - Dominate your box and make sure you communicate to our defence
Gámez/Monreal - They will probably go with two out and out wingers so make sure they are negated, do this by forcing them outwide before preventing them getting a cross in.
Puyol/Domínguez - They'll either go with one up front, in which case Domínguez is to mark them as he is the taller of the two of you and both of their strike options are tall. If they do go with two upfront then Domínguez to mark Crouch and Puyol to pick up Toni. If only one then Puyol to sweep and to make sure that any runners from deep are picked up.
Albelda/Beñat - As mentioned in the team talk Albelda is to stick to Pirlo throughout and prevent him from settling, use all of your experience to negate his presence. Beñat will be left to pick up their CAM (if they play one) or else any runners going box to box. Beñat to be the start of our attacks and look to play sensible possession keeping football.
Tello/Callejón - You're role is incredibly important today as Bunga Bunga's fullbacks aren't the strongest. Look to torment them all game alternatate between going outside and whipping in crosses for Soldado and driving inside to link up with Isco and get in the space that Soldado provides us with.
Isco - Firstly I want you to drag their DCM out of position, it'll likely be one of Diame/N'Zonzi neither of whom will be able to stick on you successfully. Come deep to pick up the ball and look to play inbetween the lines. Doing so will allow us to dominate the midfield and utilise your trickery and vision successfully.
Soldado - Utilise your movement to drag the Bunga Bunga cb's out of position, this will provide space for Tello/Callejón/Isco to play in. Finally if you get a chance take it, their gk's are quite inexperienced.

Tactical Instructions:
Di Gennaro - You are a young agile keeper. You can make all the saves, but I want you to be confident in your abilities today. Command your defence. When distributing hit Crouch/Toni early.
Van Rhijn/Pasqual - You two have a big role today. First and foremost you defend. You will have help from a CB on your side, so look to stop the winger getting crosses in for Soldado. In attack, let Crouch/Toni bring the ball down, and I want you two to offer some width, and get the crosses in. The CDM's will cover for us.
Bonera, Ranocchia and Chico - They usually play one up front in Soldado, so I want Ranocchia to man mark him if that is how they play again today. If so, Bonera/Chico I want you to help out your FB's in defence by doubling up with them, whilst the other one is in the middle defending runners from deep. When distributing the ball, go long to Crouch/Toni.
Yacob and N'Zonzi - You two defend today. They play an AM and he runs there game for them, so shut him down, and rough him up. Do not push forward, except N'Zonzi go for set pieces. If a FB goes, you guys keep an eye and cover for them. When distributing the ball go to Crouch/Toni early.
Diame - You have an engine on you. I want you to be box to box, but remember your defensive duties. If you have a chance to shoot, shoot. Look to make the driving runs at the heart of defence that you can.
Crouch and Toni - Two big guys up front today. You are much stronger and bigger than there CB's, so we will look to hit it into you, for you to either try and win a free kick, or hit out wide to the FB's or give to Diame. Look for the crosses from the FB's, dominate there back line.
Penalties - Crouch
Free Kicks - Yacob - Any time we have a free kick I want us to pump it into there area, even if in our own half. N'Zonzi, Crouch, Toni, Diame, Ranocchia and Bonera to go forward and the rest stay back. We have the height advantage so hang it up there for our guys to win it.
Corners - Yacob - Same players go up as from free kicks. Look to hang it up around the six yard box for our guys to attack. Crouch get on the GK and make your presence felt.

Team Talk:
Right big game today boys, and I want us to go out there and be solid in defence first and foremost, then take advantage of there lack of height from long balls to our strikers and from set pieces. I want us to defend, then go long to Crouch/Toni who will look to hit the FB's bombing or Diame, for us to try and cross/shoot or pick up free kicks. They are a side that doesn't like a physical battle and today I want us to make this game scrappy, and physical. Let them pass around 35 yards from our goal, but as soon as they get within 30 yards we hustle and break up the play. Take advantage of our set pieces with our extra height and lets go out and win boys!

Right lads first game in charge and let’s make it a winning one, gone 4-5-1 to try and dominate the midfield and control the flow of play, 100 % from everyone and keep it simple, ball on the ground, spread it out wide and always look for the simple pass, want to see wingers getting cack and playing a deep 4-5-1 when defending and when attacking Feliani pushing on to an AM position to make it a 4-2-3-1.
GK, prove why you should be starting, communicate with defenders and be the leader on the field, look to throw it out to start quick counter attacks, play safe no unnecessary heroics and put in a solid performance.
FBs, don’t lets there wingers have their own way, try to get them out wide and isolate them, cut them off from the rest of the team, don’t lunge in a over commit, loot to come inside and cover for your CBs, when attacking look to double up with the wingers and overlap, look to put in balls for Emile and Feliani.
CB, keep disciplines if 1 striker Ferdinand man mark and gamberini playing around, if 2 strikers zonal marking, like the FBs don’t over commit keep the strikers where you can see them and don’t let them get goal side of you, look to get the ball away quickly , be firm in the tackle and let the strikers know you mean business .
CMs, when defending Drop back and cover the middle of the field, form a wall in front of the CBs, Feliani mark the Am and bully him, use your size and make sure his day is uncomfortable, Nocerino and Diarra cover other options from their attack, when attacking Feliani pushes forward into an AM role while the other 2 stay back, however when Feliani goes into the box for crosses Nocerino sit in the hole on the edge of the box, all of you look to spray the ball out wide or look for the
Striker, pass before shooting and if attacking quickie you all have permission to burst forward
Wingers, look to stay wide and attack the Full backs, look to get outside and whip balls into the box or cut inside and attack the box, when crossing try to put in high balls for Emile and Feliani to attack, when defending drop back and double up on the opposing wingers.
ST, lone striker so try and hold up play for others, don’t drift wide as we need you central get in the box for crosses and try to link up with the wingers and CMs, always be moving around the Cbs and create room for others.

If winning 75, Off Diarra on Lucio to switch to 5-4-1 at all times

TACTICS
We need to get another win today, we are going to play counter-attacking football. They lack a bit of creativity in their midfield and we expect most of their attacks to come from out wide. Fellaini will always be closely watched and we will attack down the wings going for their inexperienced full backs.
DEFENSE
If they do try to attack using crosses, then Mertesacker should dominate all of the balls, get in and win all the headers to clear away with Albiol covering as he is the quicker of the two. Cissokho and Rafinha are both full backs with pace about them and should use that to match Pennant and Barnetta. Don't go diving in with silly tackles, just jockey, force them wide and try to block the cross.
One of our three midfielders should always be on Fellaini's case and not let him have any space if he's playing in the advanced role, they can all tackle and should look to win the ball. If necessary have two men on Fellaini. Shaqiri and Ben Arfa should both track back and look to help out their full backs but be quick on the counter attack.
ATTACK
As soon as we get the ball we should look to quickly hit on the break. Kießling is a big strong striker and should look to hold up the ball. Ben Arfa, Shaqiri and Giaccharini should all look to make runs beyond Kießling and run and the defense, especially Lucio who lacks pace and the full backs who will be coming back from attacking positions. They have license to interchange, constantly mix it up working it wide and getting balls in the box or coming inside and shooting. Casemiro should play in a box to box role with Schwegler covering and should look to pick out the passes, get slightly deeper if need be and show your long range passing abilities.
SUBSTITUTIONS
If winning move Giaccharini into central midfield, stay there and help us to close out the game. Continue to attack on the counter. If we are struggling bring on Westermann to sit in front of the defense and man-mark Fellaini.
If drawing bring on Lima for Giaccharini. Move Ben Arfa to LM and play 4-4-2. Lima should use his pace to work with Kießling and get on the end of his knock downs, look to put away any chances he gets.
If losing bring on Lima and Peterson for Giaccharini and Schwegler. Have Casemiro as a deep-lying playmaker, Ben Arfa and Shaqiri in attacking midfield roles with Peterson and Lima flanking Kießling.

Team Talk:
Attack, attack...attack, attack, ATTACK!
Gong with the set up of fast paced wingbacks that allow us to always have more back to cover than then can throw at us. With the attacks coming down the flanks it should allow for plenty of opportunities for the two strikers who have 20 goals between them in RL this season to really test their reserve keeper.
GK: Make yourself big on shots, command your box and instruct your defence. Look to release the ball early to our fullbacks to create counters.
WBs: Take a high line marking the wingers and look to push them back into their own half where possible. Both have excellent control of the ball and are comfortable at feet so look to work with our attack to maintain pressure. Use Forest Gumps speed on the counter to burst past their defence whilst Asamoah's pinpoint crossing to target the two strikers.
CBs: Rather than marking & reacting to attacks the emphasis is upon pressurising the opponent to regain control of the ball early and to then launch back at the opposition. Use the numbers game of the 3 CBs to always ensure cover.
CMs: Koke and De Marcos to work together in the break up of play of the opposition, use their intelligence to move the ball about to the fast paced options in front of him and dictate the flow of the game.
AM: Herrera to play 1 touch football with the options around him, look to release the WBs bursting forward or thread a quick ball through to either of the strikers. Under times of pressure drop back into CM to swamp the ball and win back possession.
STs: They will be expecting a lone striker so lets make this count by working together and pulling apart their centre of defence, work in tandem to drag them out of position and create space for your partner. Always chase every ball and harass the defence when they are in possession to give the ball away early.

Today we go with t he simple 4-4-2, we play a team who play with strength but can be had at the back , our centre mid should be good enough to deal with anything they have and weave pace amend finishing up front, go out there and play your game but also look to dominate possession, keep the ball on the ground, high pressure and don’t let them bully you, they will play mostly down the middle as there wings re there weak point be prepared.
GK, same as always, come fore gettable crosses, throw the ball out to start quick attacks, look for fellaini for goal kicks, bit short if possible.
FBs, Kelly stay back and guard your wing, only go forward on occasion, Bertrand feel free to support Sam whenever but remember your defensive resoiblitys, you are better than there wide men so you should win this battle, however don’t let crosses come into the box at all costs, safety first, no rash tackles an kick out of play if need be.
CB, expect strength and height, look to muscle back and prepare for flick ones, be alert and be strong, don’t let them bully you.
CM, fellaini get to their playmaker, use your size to bully him out of the game, Nocerino, move around the centre of midfield and pickup pieces and mark others, both be tough in the tackle and no mercy, look to keep the ball, look for Aub to make runs in behind there CBs but also look to get the ball wide for our Wingers to attack there FBs, Feliani get in the box for crosses.
W look to attack there Fbs from the off, there FBs look like the weakest past and look to expose that, Sam use Bertrand for support, get crosses into fellaini or low sweeping one for the strikers, Wiji, you are one your own for the most part, cut iinsideand take on the Cbs look o create space for the strikers by keeping the CBs occupied, look to play the killer ball, however if they play 3 at the back, just abuse all that space, get up and support the striker making a 4 player attack.
ST, hemed, move around and get into scoring positions, Aub use your pace to get in behind the CBS, occupy them and either receive a through ball or make space for Hemed to receive it, look for winger support, look to get goal side for low crosses and don’t be afraid to shoot, we don’t have to walk it in.

Van Rhijn and Pasqual - You two have a big role today. First and foremost you defend. You will have help from a CM on your side. Show your winger inside where it is crowded and congested. if you get the ball off the GK, pass to Pirlo and let him work his magic.
Pirlo, N'Zonzi and Diame - Diame and N'Zonzi I want you two to be going box to box today. You do the dirty work for Pirlo. Help out the FB on your side, but also look to support in attack. However one goes, one stays when attacking. Pirlo you have the beard, and the ability to run this game for us. Look to hit Lambert long, or Fletcher's feet, and we can build from there.
Nolan - Look to gamble on the flick ons from Lambert, or pick up the ball from Fletcher's feet and drive forward. In defence, sit on the CDM, or there deepest midfielder and cause a nuisance of yourself.
Lambert and Fletcher - Lambert I want you to peel onto the FB and win flick ons if we go long, if not look to make a clever run when the ball hit's Fletcher's feet.

--------- Beñat ---- Mkhitaryan ----------
Varela ---------- Isco --------------- Tello
-------------- Soldado -------------------
Team Talk: After a strong performance in the cup its back to the league this week against a VFL side under new management. They have a few glaring weaknesses that we can exploit today. Tello and new signing Varela are to torment their fullbacks the whole match as without Piszczek they are weak in this area. In the middle is another area we can exploit especially if they employ the same formation they did in the cup. Beñat and Mkhitaryan are to control the center of the park which will allow Isco to dictate the play. If we look to play our simple and beautiful football then we can turn this into a great day at the office.
Hilário - Be strong in the air and command your area.
Gámez/Monreal - I'd imagine it will be Eliseu and Großkreutz so it's important that you focus on defending, mark them out of the game and make sure you force them wide. In Mangala and Puyol we've got two great headers of the ball who will dominate Mandzukic in the air.
Puyol/Mangala - Puyol to mark Mandzukic as you can use all your experience to prevent him from settling, Mangala to sweep and prevent any through balls as well as picking up any runners from deep.
Beñat - When they have the ball stick to their CAM (presumably Xhaka) and stop him from getting any time on the ball, once we have the ball look for the simple passes. Along with Mkhitaryan you must provide us with a solid foundation to attack from.
Mkhitaryan - In defence make sure that you pick up whoever is attempting to go box to box (I'd imagine Strootman) and make sure that we are not outnumbered at any moment. In attack look to link up with Beñat initially before combining with Isco to overwhelm the VFL defensive line. You're one of the top scorers in Europe so offer us an option going forward and given half a sniff challenge Rubinho.
Isco - They will be employing a DCM to try and cover you but it is very likely to be Kehl who will not be able to live with your pace and trickery. Bamboozle him before looking to play in the space that Soldado's movement provides. Look to release and link up with Tello and Varela.
Tello/Varela - As mentioned in the team talk you can dominate their fullbacks today, alternate between going outside to whip in crosses for Soldado and driving inside to link up with Isco and Mkhitaryan. Both of you are also great at drifting into spaces and being in the right place at the right time, I trust you to do this when required.
Soldado - Remember what I said about trying to turn this into a rout? Your movement will prevent Chiellini from settling on you as he'll either have to follow you or risk losing you. Your movement will provide Isco, Mkhitaryan, Tello and Varella with the room to play in and dominate the game from. Finally today should be a great opportunity for goals with Rutundo in goal so look to take advantage of this.

TACTICS
We need to get a win today and continue our good run. We have named an attacking line-up, we're going to have a go and attack them. When we defend, we will be in two organized banks of four.
DEFENSE
Westermann is our leader at the back, they have a lot of pace in their attack so we will use a deeper line to counter it. Westermann should go in first with Albiol being the quicker of the two so will look to back him up and sweep up. Schwaab and Schmelzer are both quick players should look to match the widemen for pace. It is imperative they are not allowed to cut inside, particularly Affelay, jockey the wingers and make them put a cross in, we will then deal with that with our height in defense.
Bender will control the midfield line, ensure we are organized. If Tevez drops deep then be quick to win the ball off him, and also when Verratti gets the ball he cannot be allowed time on it. He's only small so just force him off the ball, foul him if need be. We fancy our chances when they have freekicks on the halfway line. Whoever is closest, go in for the tackle, don't waste energy and get drawn out of position by man-marking.
ATTACK
Heung-Ming Son and Shaqiri are both quick players and should look to skin their full backs for pace, especially if Zanetti or Maxwell starts. Sometimes cut inside and have a shot, sometimes go wide and cross the ball, as we can use Kießling's height advantage to win the headers, which is his role as the target man. Lima should look to use his pace to cause problems for the defense, especially if they go man for man and create space, work the channels and take potshots. We fancy our chances shooting from range as Bardi is unproven in a top league. The full backs should also look to get forward as their wingers are unlikely to track back.
Also, look to win set pieces, as a team we have many players who are 6 footers: Westermann, Albiol, Bender, Kießling, Son should all be on the box and Lima should be right on the keeper. Cleverley or Shaqiri should take the set pieces as we feel this is a big threat for us.
SUBSITUTIONS
If winning bring on Casemiro and Giaccharini for Lima and Son, push Cleverley further forward and have fresh legs in midfield. Try to dominate possession.
If drawing bring on Giaccharini for Lima, move Son upfront where he should play on the shoulder of the last man and use his pace to break free.
If losing bring on Giaccharini and Mertesacker for Schmelzer and Schwaab. Move to a 3-4-3 with Son and Lima flanking Kießling.

Team talk:
Right lads, the game plan is simple today. Expecting two new FBs from the opposition due to injuries/transfers, neither of who are the strongest defensively. We get the ball to the wingers for them to attack this area. Verratti, Toulalan – you are to sit deeper. Bratwurst like to play an AM 3 slightly narrow, so we fill this space and make it impossible for them to have time on the ball. This , along with Cassano pushing the defence back will create space for Tevez to drop into and make it a bigger, harder space for them to pick him up in. Defensively, we have men behind the ball.
Keeper Stand tall, come for crosses that are close to you making them need to aim crosses further out. Distribute short as much as possible.
FBs You are part of a unit, so keep your shape and defend together. Pick up any wide players , keep tight and force them to cross from wide and deep as much as possible.. Get forward when opportunities arises, but never at the same time. Overlap the widemen and get crosses in.
CBs – If Kiessling is play by himself, play a higher line, which together with the CMs dropping deep will really squash their space to play in. Howedes will pick up Kiessling. If Son comes in up front, then we will need to drop slightly deeper to limit the space in behind, and Britos will pick him up. If either CB is spare, they will sweep up loose balls.
CMs – Going to sit deeper to stifle their attacking players of space, and create space for our own. Toulalan will act as the midfield general, commanding the team. Break up their attacks before they get going. When the full backs push on, sit alongside the CBs. Verratti will support Toulalan defensively, but will get on the ball and feed the wingers and the attackers. Look for balls in behind the FBs and CBs, push them back
Wingers – Get on the ball and run at the FBs, turning them inside and out. When Verratti plays the ball in behind the FBs, look to spin in behind. We want to force them to defend deep.
Forwards – Tevez playing a spare role today. We are looking to create a ton of space for you to drop into and to work your magic. Get on the ball as much as possible and create chances. Get in support of Cassano when it is wide for any balls that go loose. Cassano – play off the shoulder of the CBs and get in behind. We are not expecting any great pace, so they will need to drop deeper to combat you, creating space for Tevez. When in the box, you’re the poacher, Get a chance, shoot.

Team Talk:
Counterattack, counterattack...counterattack, counterattack, COUNTERATTACK!
Playing this week a little deeper as they will be expecting us to be playing a high paced, high line attack so instead we've got a 5 man midfield designed to hit them fast on the break when they've lost possession.
GK: Make yourself big on shots, command your box and instruct your defence. Look to release the ball early to our fullbacks to create counters.
WBs: Pressure their wingers as they come to the ball and manoeuvre them into the corners, come forward with the ball when they've lost possession at speed to hit them on the break.
CBs: Rather than marking & reacting to attacks the emphasis is upon pressurising the opponent to regain control of the ball early and to then launch back at the opposition. If the opposition have a lone striker then it’s 2 on 1, if they play 2 up front then Aurtenetxe is to come narrower and make 3 on 2.
CM: Koke to play a simple game, tackle and an intelligent pass to a player in space whilst Maher to play the creative game, look 2 steps ahead for the movement of the players going forward.
AM: Herrera to play 1 touch football with the options around him, the excellent chemistry with Susaeta & Aduriz should allow them to unlock the defence of the Germans, use vision and technique to thread balls past the FBs into space. When not in possession then pressurise the opposition immediately.
WGs: Work with both our FBs & Herrera against their defence with speed and fluidity to overwhelm them. Play high up the pitch to force them further and further onto the back foot and look to win the ball back early to maintain this. If opposite winger has the ball then look to go into the box to provide options.
ST: Hard work and perseverance today, be a constant thorn to their CBs by not letting them settle and make them release the ball early. Be constantly moving so any markers follow you to create further space for the incoming wingers.
SUBS: Gabriel, Suarez, Alcacer, Martinez, Jese, Rodriguez
If losing at 70m: Jese + Rodriguez on for Aduriz & De Marcos, further youth with 1 touch passing and movement skills to increase the pressure in their half of the pitch

TACTICS
We are playing a team blighted by injuries and we need to take advantage of that. We should look to dominate possession and create plenty of chances, showing our experience against a young side. The full backs should be keen to bombard forward with plenty of cover coming from midfield and Son and Shaqiri have free roles behind Mandzukic.
DEFENSE
Rodrigo or Aduriz (or both) could be upfront, and depending on what they use we will have different tactics. Either way we will play in zones with a flat back four. We will have a deepish line to ensure we don't get caught out with the pace of Rodrigo, if he plays. However if Aduriz plays he lacks pace and we should play higher up. If both play then we should ensure that there is little space between the midfield and defense, give them little space to work in and ensure they can't get a shot away by being in their faces.
Herrera is likely to play but rather than dribbling he likes to quickly pass the ball. Cleverley should get in his face, preventing him from picking out the passes as he usually would. If they use wingers then Giaccharini and Rafinha should use their pace to match them, force them out wide and don't let them cut inside. Jockey them and we can deal with the crosses if they come in. Shaqiri and Son should get wide and help out as part of the five man midfield in front of defense.
ATTACK
Mandzukic should lead the line. They have a couple of young, inexperienced centre backs so with clever play we can get them to make mistakes. Particularly get yourself up against Martinez as you can beat him aerially. Son and Shaqiri have free roles today. They can look to go wide, make runs inside or play on the shoulder. They should get all over the place and be difficult to man-mark. Son is clinical in front of goal and should get in front when the chances are coming. Shaqiri should look to be more of a playmaker.
From midfield Cleverley should make driving runs forward and Giaccharini and Rafinha should get forward to provide us with width. Casemiro and Bender should be on hand to cover them, but the full backs getting forward is crucial. Look for the head of Mandzukic or Son, or try cutting the ball back to Cleverley at the edge of the box.
SUBSTITUTIONS
If winning bring on Blind for Son. Move Giaccharini to midfield with Shaqiri on the opposing wing, more of an orthodox 4-5-1.
If drawing bring on Kießling for Cleverley. Move to a 4-4-2 and bombard them with crosses.
If losing bring on Kießling, Sigurdsson and Westermann for Bender, Rafinha and Giaccharini. Move to an attacking 3-5-2. Sigurdsson, Cleverley and Casemiro should be in CM, Shaqiri and Son out wide with Kießling partnering Mandzukic upfront.

Team Talk:
After successfully negotiating our way through the group stages of the cup we once again turn our attention back to the league. Today we play a side who are yet to pick up a point however we must not underestimate them. We will look to control the game and this is shown in the line up we have gone with. Isco and Mkhitaryan are being deployed alongside each other to overwhelm the Partridges in the center of the park. Isco to be slightly further forward than Mkhitaryan and to play in the space that Soldado provides us with, this will allow him to dominate the game. Nigel de Jong will probably be employed to mark our CAM, this is where Mkhitaryan comes in as their DCM will not be able to cope with the pair of you. We should create a plethora of chances and hopefully we can carry on our good scoring form.
Caballero - Stay calm and claim any crosses that come in, communicate to your defence
Monreal/Azpiliceuta - Mark their wingers out of the game by forcing them wide before knicking the ball of of them. Any forward runs you make you need to make sure that you can get back so we are never outnumbered.
Puyol/Domínguez - Puyol to stick to Holt, use all of your experience to show him who is boss, he is quite likely to be the lone striker so Domínguez can sweep and prevent any runners from getting involved. You are both very strong in the air so use this to our advantage at set pieces.
Beñat - DCM today but not in the traditional sense. Although I want you to pick up their CAM (Shelvey) you can also look to play the clever balls that you have been great at this season for Betis. We have based our season on clever passing football and today is no difference. You are the start point of our attacks.
Mkhitaryan - As mentioned in the team talk you, as well as Isco, are key today. When we have possession look to overwhelm their DCM (Nigel de Jong?), you can use all your skill and trickery to make sure that we can create lots of chances. If you get a chance to then look to shoot as with your scoring record it would be a crime not to! When we don't have the ball I want you to get back alongside Beñatand pick up any runners from deep (Siem de Jong?) and make sure we are never outnumbered.
Isco - Look to play in the space that Soldado's movement provides us with, whats more with Mkhitaryan supporting you you should be provided with even more room as their DCM won't be able to mark both of you. If you want to drop deep to pick up the ball do so before bursting into the space. Tello and Callejón will be up to their usual tricks so look to use them as well as Mkhitaryan/Soldado to pass our way around the Partidge's defence.
Callejón/Tello - Alternate between going outside and driving inside to bamboozle the Partidge's fullbacks. When you go outside look to whip in dangerous crosses that Soldado can get on the end of. When coming inside look to link up with Isco/Mkhitaryan/Soldado and pass our way around the Partidges. We need to use our pace, trickery and movement to our advantage.
Soldado - As always use your amazing movement to drag the oppositions center backs out of place, this will allow space for Isco, inparticular, to operate in. I want you to fill your boots today as your top of the scoring charts and today is a perfect opportunity to cement this.

Right lads, the game plan is simple today. Verratti to dictate play from a deeper lying playmaker role. We get the ball to the wingers for them to attack the full backs, or in behind the FBs if they are forward. Defend a higher line today as we do not expect much pace up front. Play the offside trap, defend as a team from the front
Keeper Stand tall, come for crosses that are close to you making them need to aim crosses further out. Distribute short as much as possible.
FBs You are part of a unit, so keep your shape and defend together. Pick up any wide players , keep tight and force them to cross from wide and deep as much as possible. Get forward at every opportunity. Overlap the winger and get crosses into the box.
CBs – Howedes will pick up the main striker. Britos will pick up any second striker. If none, he will play spare He will sweep up loose balls, attacking headers on high balls into the box, picking up the midfield runners.
CMs – Zanetti to sit deep and protect the back four. Cover the full backs when they go forward. Verratti to sit deep and dictate our gameplan. Get on the ball and feed the widemen and strikers. Also support Zanetti in protecting the back four when both FBs get forward.
Wingers – Get on the ball and run at the FBs, turning them inside and out. When Verratti plays the ball in behind the FBs, look to spin in behind. When the FBs overlap, make space for them by coming inside. If Tevez is closely marked, he will move into wider positions, and we want you to move into the space he leaves behind. Defensively press the ball as soon as we lose it, as high up the pitch as possible. We want to win it back as quickly as possible.
Forwards – Tevez playing a free role today moving into where you can find space. Get on the ball as much as possible and create chances. If you are marked closely, move wide and the wingers will come into the space you leave. Get in support of Cassano when it is wide for any balls that go loose. Cassano – play off the shoulder of the CBs and get in behind. When in the box, you’re the poacher, Get a chance, shoot.

Team Talk: Put simply if we win today then we are league champions, this will be achieved through our normal passing football with Isco and Mkhitaryan alternating who is in the hole. In previous weeks Swag haven't played a true dcm with Nocerino having to alternate between the dcm and a true cm position. We can use this to hurt them as I want you two to overload them. Swag's threat comes through Lichtsteiner and Asamoah. Monreal to stay back and make sure that Lichtsteiner cannot bomb forward. Asamoah was employed in a central role last time so Beñat to pick him up if he bursts forward.
Caballero: Be strong in the air and command your box
Azpiliceuta/Monreal: As stated in the team talk Lichtsteiner is probably Swag's biggest threat, Monreal to watch for him bursting forward. On the other side it's likely to be Bertrand who is someone we can attack. Azpliceuta to get forward and get in the space out wide past Callejón however he must make sure he gets back so we are never overloaded.
Puyol/Domínguez - Puyol to pick up their striker who is likely to be operating alone, use all of your experience and bully him off the ball. Domínguez to sweep and pick up their Second Striker/CAM if they have one. Make sure you keep the communication levels up. When we have the ball look for simple passes to any of the midfield trio.
Beñat - Pick up their CAM and prevent him from settling, when we have the ball play your simple passing football to get HM/Isco. If they play Asamoah centrally then we should be able to prevent him from settling. If you happen to get forward then have a pop as we know you've got a great shot on you.
Mkhyytaryan: Alternate between defensive duutiee and the number 10 position, if you get a sniff have a shot. You can overwhelm the dcm , if we do this we sun the game.
Isco: As with HM we need to overload their DCM, you have proved this season that you can alternate with hm. If the option comes up then both of you to get forward so we can dominate.
Callejon/Varela: Drive inside inside to link up with the two alternating number 10s, utilise the space that Soldado creates. Varelela must track back as he does for porto to prevent Lichtseiner from imposing himself.
Soldado: Don't let their CBS settle on you, create space for Isco, HM and the wingers to operate in. When you get the ball take on the cb and sjppt on sight. As stated on the team talk if we win today we win the league.

Team talk: We secured the league title two weeks ago and beat Brescia last week in the cup. Lets put the exclamation point on our sensational league season. We are in front of our fans so let's give them a reminder of just why we won the league and why we will hopefully complete the double next weekend.
Caballero - Command your box, get the ball to the fullbacks
Eliseu/Azplicueta - Don't get caught out of position but look to get forward and go outside of Tello and Callejon both of whom will be cutting inside. Lets overwhelm their fullbacks when we get forward. Make sure we get back though!
Puyol/Dominguez - Puyol to mark their striker as he did in the cup semi, Dominguez to pick up their cam if they play one and sweep in behind. Dominguez to use his pace and height to help out Puyol who can compliment with his experience and leadership.
Benat - Play the deep lying playmaker role when we have the ball mixed with the dcm role when we don't, prevent their midfielders from settling
Mkhitaryan/Isco - Alternate as to who is playing in the whole and who is sitting alongside Benat, similar to the cup semi. When we break forward look to swarm their dcm and make sure that we get Tello/Callejon into the game as much as possible. If we can make it a 5 on 3 situation then do this.
Cellejon/Tello - Drive inside to link up with Isco/Mkhitaryan in the space that Soldado creates. Eliseu and Azpliceuta will be overlapping to overwhelm their fullbacks.
Soldado - Utilise your movement to provide room for the four behind you to work within. Today is about excitement for our fans and showing why we are league champions. Finally you can win the golden boot today so utilise any chances you might get.

Team talk:
Attacking, we are looking at get one of our two CMs on the ball deep, get the ball moving and feed the three AMs. They will interchange and make it difficult to pick them up. When not on the ball they will look to support Tevez.
Defensively, the FBs will stay back and pick up the wingers, whilst Howedes will look to pick up Soldado, whilst Dante will play as the spare man. Cabaye and Verratti will drop deeper to provide cover for the defence and plug the hole that Deportivo’s AM likes to operate in.
Keeper Stand tall, come for crosses that are close to you making them need to aim crosses further out. Distribute short as much as possible.
FBs Stay back this week and pick up the wingers. Don’t let them turn and keep them facing away from goal to limit their effectiveness.
CBs – We are expecting a lone striker today in Soldado. Howedes will pick him up and stick tight, not giving him an inch. Dante will play spare, sweeping up the loose balls and attacking anything high into the box. At least once towards the end of the game, attempt to catch the ball in your Afro and carry it into the opposition goal.
CMs – Get on the ball and pass it around, keep possession until an opportunity to feed our attacking four is possible. One of you can go forward when we are attacking, but never both at the same time. Defensively, drop in, on front of the defence and protect them.
AMs – When attacking, you can all interchange and play in any of the three roles. Keep passing and moving, and look for gaps in the opposition defence created by your movement. When we defend, Affelay and Fischer should track the forward runs of their FBs to help out our FBs.
Tevez – play as the main man up front today. Chase everything, run into the channels, waiting for the support of the AMs. When the ball is in the final third, make sure you are in the box

Team talk:
Defensively, we will press the ball high up the pitch and win it back as early as possible. The CMs will protect the back four, filling any space that an opposition AM/SS will try to operate in. Deutschie have the threat of skilful and pacey players on the flanks, so FBs will be more conservative and focus on defence before attack.
Offensively, Pirlo will dictate the game and feed our 4 most attacking players. Target the LB and the channel between him and the CB (we expect Shawcross there), so a lot of our play will go through Robben, or whoever is on the right for us.
Buffon Stand tall, come for crosses that are close to you making them need to aim crosses further out. Use all your experience to command your defence. Distribute short as much as possible.
Full backs You are part of a unit, so keep your shape and defend together. Pick up any wide players , keep tight and force them to cross from wide and deep as much as possible. Be more conservative initially, but as the game goes on, if we need to chase the game, start to attack more.
CBs – Howedes will pick up the main striker, Barzagli will pick up any second striker if there is one. If not, he will play spare, sweeping up, plus tracking any midfield runners into the box
CMs – Pirlo sit in the deeper playmaker position, get on the ball and dictate the tempo of the game, feeding the attacking quartet. Marchisio – you will play box to box driving forward and getting to the edge of the box. Defensively, both will sit and protect the back four, filling the pace for any opposition AM.
AMs – Get the ball from the CMs and run at the defence. Go inside and out to beat your man and create space for the strikers. Get the ball low into the box, in behind the defence when we are central, low and across the box when it is wide. Swap your positions between yourselves to keep the defence guessing. Robben/Jovetic - When the ball is on the other flank go central to support Tevez. Defensively, pressurise the ball as soon as we lose it.
Striker – Tevez will play as the main striker today, but the AMs will be close by and he will essentially operate as one of an attacking 4. Look to get onto the balls into the box from the attacking players. Defensively, pressurise the ball as soon as we lose it.
Any score on 70 minutes

Team Talk Up against Under Brescia in a massive game, when we don't have the ball we'll work as a unit and pressure them when they come into our half Holtby dropping back into midfield. We use both centre and wings to attack Holtby linking the attack and defence.
Friedel always communicate with defence let them know if you can claim ball try to catch but punch if you have to kick ball long to Huntelaar.
Boateng priority is to defend watch the ball don't dive in jockey your man push him onto weaker foot when attacking link up with winger pass and move.
Rami watch for SS/AM intercept, block passes they make watch for his runs but don't move out of position jockey and force him back tackle when you need.
Shawcross pick up main striker leap early to win ball be physical but fair shoulder barge him when he gets ball knock him of his stride don't let him settle.
Gibbs priority is to defend watch the ball don't dive in jockey your man push him onto weaker foot when attacking make run down wing giving us space for wingers.
Sterling stick to touch line you have a very impressive dribbling rate run at your man with pace make him commit draw fouls get constant balls into box always track back.
Ledesma playmaker demand the ball get it moving for us look for wide men making runs behind the defenders dictate the tempo pick up their midfielders and runs.
Gundogan/b] more defensive put pressure on thier attackers close down make them pass back close options intercept get in way keep passing simple.
[b]Draxler link up with Holtby cut inside shoot or pass Gibbs will give the width dribble always mix up your play keep defender guessing always track back.
Holtby the link between attack and defence always move around feed Huntelaar through balls to him make runs of him drop into midfield and put pressure on their DM stopping thier attacks.
Huntelaar play as predator get into positions to score make move nets don't let them pick you up when you get ball pass and move on.

--------------------- Caballero ------------------
Azpiliceuta ----- Puyol (c) -- Varane ----- Monreal
-------------- Matuidi ----- Sissoko -------------
Ménez --------------- Isco ---------------- Tello
-------------------- Soldado -------------------
Team Talk: First game of the season so lets start where we left off as we look to defend our title. We are playing a dangerous Mannschaft team who have a lot of quality in the centre of the park. Therefore we have gone with the French connection of Matuidi and Sissoko in the middle who are there to disrupt the play. Isco in the hole today and I want you to get back and make sure we are never outnumbered. When we attack we need to target the wings and the space between the lines. Mannschaft are slightly weak at fullback and as such Tello and Ménez are to attack them with our fullbacks supporting. Soldado can also create so many problems for Godin and Cahill as well.
Caballero - Command your box and claim any crosses that come in
Azpliceuta/Monreal - As stated they're fullbacks are a target so alternate who goes forward and who stays back. When they have the ball I want both of you back to ensure that their wingers are dealt with.
Puyol/Varane - I'd imagine Mannschaft will play one up front (Mandzukic probably) so I want Puyol to use all his experience to nullify his threat, do everything in your power to rough him up and prevent him from settling. This will allow Varane to use his pace to sweep and pick up any runners from deep. If Pato plays then its the same plan with Puyol targetting Pato's confidence as if we lower this he will switch off.
Matuidi - True DCM today and I want you to pick up whoever is their number 10 (Presumably Kagawa) and don't let him settle, he isn't great against powerhouses which is what you are. For PSG you've shown that that role is where you thrive. When we have the ball look to get the ball to Isco or Sissoko.
Sissoko - Box to box today where you will be our engine house. When they have the ball get back alongside Matuidi and pick up Boateng who will look to get forward. If we prevent their midfield from playing then we will control the game. Look to link up with Isco and play our pretty ticka-tacka football to get through their midfield. Look wide to Ménez and Tello who can win this game for us. If you get in the position have a cheeky shot.
Isco - In the hole today where you can keep us ticking. As mentioned in the team talk when they have the ball get back so we are never outnumbered. As soon as we get the ball I want you to operate in room between the lines and in the space that Soldado provides us with. I want you to utilise Ménez and Tello to get past their DCM who presumably will be given the unenviable task of trying to keep tracks on you. With Sissoko bursting forward you will always have an option.
Ménez/Tello - I want you to terrorize their fullbacks all game by alternating between driving inside and getting to the byline. You both possess great speed and the ability to ghost past defenders. When you go outwide whip crosses in for Soldado who will be lurking as well as Sissoko who will be bustling forward. Isco will always give you an option especially when you drive inside into the space. You dominate their fullbacks and we win.
Soldado - Utilise your great movement to create the room that Isco thrives in and link up with him. Make sure that you are in a position to finish off any crosses that Ménez and Tello get in for you, of which there will be plenty. You finished last season as the top scorer for a reason so lets continue from that point with your goals sending us to victory.
---
Corners - Ménez/Tello, Puyol and Varane come forward. Matuidi to stay back with the fullbacks. Aim for the big heads of Puyol, Varrane, Soldado and Sissoko
Freekicks - Isco
Penatlies - Soldado

Subs:
Regardless of score at 70 minutes, Puyol off Domínguez on. Like for like at the back.
Regardless of score at 80 minutes, Tello off Belhanda on. Something different on the left wing with Belhanda drifiting in to link up with Isco, mind you Belhanda has also proved that he can operate just as well on the wing.

TACTICS
Big day for us and we want to get out there and open our campaign with a win. They are likely to play one upfront and we want to isolate him as much as possible. We have plenty of energy in midfield and going with two upfront allows us to always be on the front foot.
DEFENSE
The back four need to be in a good straight line, Godin is our leader at the back and should control this. We should be generally just on the edge of the area where there is not enough space to play behind and trying to restrict them to long range efforts. Cahill and Godin both have a height advantage on Soldado and should make the most of that by winning all of the aerial balls. Schmelzer and Carvajal should look to jockey their wingers wide, prevent them cutting inside, instead force them to cross the ball in from distance.
When not in possession Boateng should support the centre midfielders, looking to provide additional energy, alongside Bender and Cleverley. The three should provide protection in the centre and be quick to pressure the likes of Isco and/or Mhkitarian when they have the ball. Bender should stay central with Boateng and Cleverley either side. Gaitan and Pato should be either side of Mandzukic, Azpilacueta is the more likely to get forward so Gaitan should keep an eye on him, but be quick to counter attack.
I should never send Marky my tactics again
ATTACK
When we get the ball the first thought should be to launch a quick counter attack. If their full backs get forward then we could have a 3v2 opportunity. Mandzukic should generally get between the centre backs and act as a target man. Pato should make plenty of runs around the back four and be a nuisance, use your pace to force them into playing a deep line. If they try a higher line, play on the shoulder of the last man and try to break free.
Gaitan and Boateng should look to cut inside with the Carvajal and Schmelzer getting forward and putting plenty of balls into the box. Both full backs are quick so they can get back. Cleverley should play in a box to box type role, supporting us in attack and getting in areas where he can pick out a pass but not so far forward he doesn't have time to get back defensively. Bender should almost always stay back but remain an option to pass to.
SET PIECES
Left Corner - Schmelzer
Right Corner - Gaitan
Free Kicks - Gaitan/Boateng
Penalties - Mandzukic
SUBSTITUTIONS
If winning bring on Matheiu and Kagawa for Gaitan and Pato. Move to a 4-5-1 with Boateng and Matheiu staying wider and Kagawa just in front of Cleverley and Bender. Look to hit them on the break quickly.
If drawing bring on Shaqiri for Boateng. Move to a wider 4-4-2 with Gaitan moving further wide. Stay as a more orthodox 4-4-2 and try to double up on their full backs.
If losing bring on Kagawa and Shaqiri for Boateng and Cleverley. Kagawa in the centre alongside Bender with two wingers. If still losing in the closing stages throw Cahill in attack to try to get on the end of crosses.

Starting XI:4-2-3-1
Sergio Asenjo (SPA)
Aleksandr Anyukov – Laurent Koscielny – Mamadou Sakho – Christian Fuchs
Yohan Cabaye – Moussa Dembele
Jesus Navas (SPA) ------------------------- Douglas Costa
Dimitar Berbatov
David Villa (SPA)
Subs: Thomas Kaminski, Angel Rangel (SPA), Victor Ruiz (SPA), Abou Diaby, Javi Garcia (SPA), Iago Falque (SPA), Markel Susaeta
Setpieces:
Corners/Long range freekicks – Cabaye, with Koscielny and Sakho getting forward, others to stay back and cover.
Close range freekicks:
Ones that favour the left footer – Costa
Ones that favour the right footer – Berbatov
Penalties – Villa
Manager’s note: Tough start at home to the Cherries League Champions No Respek, they will be fired up but they are vulnerable. They are very strong going forward but I feel our defence and centre midfield can keep them at bay while our front four can get at their defence, despite their big name power they are open to a pacy attack and in Navas and Costa we can exploit that.
Asenjo, command your area, build attacks from the back, stay in communication with your defence and stay big for one on ones.
Koscielny/Sakho, use your knowledge of each other’s game through International squads to make sure you keep Demba Ba at bay, if they play 2 strikers you will be assisted by the CM but it’s unlikely. One of you mark Ba, the other clear up. Keep the ball on the ground and leave the long passes for the midfielders ahead of you to make.
Anyukov/Fuchs, stay in a line with the CB’s when out of possession and look to catch Ba offside. Force the No Respek winger wide and cut out the cross, do not let the man inside. When we have the ball, one of you get forward, make sure one of you stays back and don’t overcommit. Overlap our winger and cross the ball.
Cabaye/Dembele, both playing box to box roles, make sure you both get back when we don’t have the ball but use your passing game and Dembele’s marauding runs to create space and chances for the front men.
Navas/Costa, run at the fullback, Navas v Cole should be no contest with Navas’ pace being too much for the ageing Cole. Costa to target Wisdom, he’s likes to get forward, so punish him for getting forward too much. Look to shoot, pass short or cross into the area.
Berbatov/Villa, Berbatov the second striker, drop deep and use your repertoire of tricks and flicks to wrong foot their defence and create spaces and chances for Villa, Villa to react to Berbatov and shoot on sight. Berbatov to join as another centre forward when the ball is being crossed into the area, look for each other when in possession.
Subs 70 mins:
If winning: Garcia on, Villa off. Garcia makes it 3 in midfield and we go 4-5-1/4-3-3, with Berbatov the lone striker holding up possession.
If drawing: Garcia on, Berbatov off. Garcia alongside Cabaye in CM and we’re more solid, with Dembele pushing forward into AM as we play a more orthadox 4-2-3-1.
If losing: Push Berbatov and Dembele further forward, switch to a 4-1-3-2 with the fullbacks committing forward more. Push for the goal.

FC No Respek line-up:
-------------------- Foster ------------------------
----- Caulker -- Bonucci – Chiellini ---------
Gerrard ---- Parker --- Montolivo ------ Baines
------- Eriksen ---------------- Ben Arfa -----
--------------------- Ba --------------------------
Subs: Butland, Wisdom, Mexes, Shaw, Tiote, Giggs, Defoe
English players: 5 (Foster, Caulker, Baines, Parker, Gerrard)
Injuries: Mathieu Debuchy + Victor Wanyama
TACTICAL SUMMARY:
We’ve changed to a 3-4-2-1 formation – the Christmas Tree – and will look to play a possession game to stretch the opposition and to create space for our front three of Eriksen, Ben Arfa and Ba. Parker will sit as the DM to break up play, Montolivo will act as playmaker, Gerrard and Baines will patrol the flanks and, crucially, Ben Arfa and Eriksen will both have a free role.
INDIVIDUAL INSTRUCTIONS:
GK - Foster – let the CBs know if you can claim the ball or if there is danger lurking around. Parry shots away from danger, try to catch the ball but punch to distance if you need to.
LCB - Chiellini – you will pick up the main striker. Keep tight on him, don’t let him settle, if he moves then move with him. Make sure you don’t dive in - keep him at bay until Bonucci can come across to dispossess him.
CCB - Bonucci – you will pick up the second striker (if there is one). If they play with one forward, you will sit slightly deeper than Chiellini and Caulker, covering for them and ensuring they know their jobs.
RCB – Caulker – with Gerrard patrolling the right flank, I want you to support him on that right side. Cover for him at all times when the opposition have the ball, and if we lose it, ensure that you are in position to cover that side. Your positioning and pace will be key to this game.
LWB - Baines – I want you to do what you do best – get forward at every opportunity, get crosses into the box, and get back defensively to shackle their wingers. I want you taking free kicks too, put one away for us!
RM - Gerrard – you have a crucial role to play today. I want you to play as an RM, get crosses into the box, and ensure that Caulker is supported defensively. Make sure that their LW/LM is kept quiet.
DM - Parker – you have two jobs: to get stuck in and put them off their game physically, and to keep the ball moving – get the ball to Eriksen/Montolivo/Ben Arfa, and get Gerrard and Baines in down the flanks.
Playmaker – Montolivo – your job is to sit deep, control the play, support the attack, get crosses in. You have a great range of passing – use it to feed the wingers, get the ball slid in for Ba’s runs at goal, and use Eriksen and Ben Arfa whenever they’re free.
AM – Eriksen – you have a free role today. I want you to be creative, attack at will, get into space to receive the ball, drop deep, move wide, do whatever you have to to get the opposition confused. Your main task is to get balls forward to Ba and wide to the wingers, and unleash your shot from distance when space opens up.
AM – Ben Arfa – you also have a free role today. I want you to get on the ball and attack the defence, take them on, beat them, then look to get your shot off or through to Ba. If anyone tries to mark you, drop deep or move wide – you have free reign to go wherever you need to do damage to their defence.
ST - Ba – I want you to keep the CBs confused so keep moving, and make plenty of diagonal runs across them. Your teammates will use of the space you create, so make sure you drag defenders with you, and get into the box for crosses and half-chances.
FC No Respek subs:
If winning after 75mins: Wisdom for Gerrard. Change to 5-3-1-1, Baines and Wisdom operating as normal FBs, Eriksen sat deeper with Ben Arfa in the hole.
If drawing after 75mins: Tiote for Parker. Fresh legs on the pitch, allow Montolivo to get forward more, and get Baines and Gerrard to attack more down the flanks.
If losing after 75mins: Defoe for Montolivo. Move to a 3-3-1-2 formation but with a sense of urgency and directness installed throughout the midfield and attack:
-------------------- Foster
------ Caulker - Bonucci -- Chiellini
Gerrard --------- Parker ------------- Baines
---------- Eriksen ------ Ben Arfa
--------- Defoe ---------- Ba

Starting XI (3-4-3)
-------------------------------Thomas Kaminski
-----------Pablo Zabaleta – Laurent Koscielny – Mamadou Sakho
Aleksandr Anyukov – Yohan Cabaye – Moussa Dembele – Christian Fuchs
-------------------Jesus Navas – David Villa – Douglas Costa
Subs: Victor Ruiz, Ashley Williams, Hope Akpan, Mikel Arteta, Mateo Kovacic, Markel Susaeta, Dimitar Berbatov
Manager’s note: A decent start last week, this week we try to push on. Playing 3-4-3 to combat their width and attacking potency, regardless of them missing Tevez and Robben, they have a great squad. This 3-4-3 is designed so that we can switch to 5-4-1 when under severe pressure but get forward and cause them problems when we have the ball.
Kaminski, command your area, stay in communication with your CB’s, watch for long shots and use the wingbacks as an outlet.
Zabaleta/Koscielny/Sakho, be commanding, if they play 1, 2 or 3 forwards, you have the ability to cope. In possession, use the ball wisely, feed the CM’s who have the ability to cause real problems for them. Play a decent line, not too high and not too deep.
Anyukov/Fuchs, work the flanks, when we have the ball get forward and support the front three and get crosses into the box. When we don’t have the ball, drop back to form a defensive five. Both of you are more than capable of playing the wingback role as you are both attacking fullbacks when you want to be.
Cabaye/Dembele, sit deep and cause them problems with your passing, but I want Dembele to showcase his marauding runs from midfield, get into their half and create space and opportunities for those in front of you.
Navas/Costa, when in possession, run at their defence, get crosses into the box for Villa and also cut inside to shoot or pass. Swap wings occasionally to keep their fullbacks guessing. Use the wingbacks overlapping. When we don’t have the ball, drop back alongside Cabaye and Dembele to help our 5-4-1 shape, but be quick to get forward again once we’re attacking.
Villa, our lone striker, do your best to not be isolated, hold the ball up and feed the wingers and midfielders or turn and shoot. Escape the centre back to be free in the area as there will be crosses coming into the box from the wingbacks and wingers who will be looking for you.
Subs 70 mins:
If winning: Costa and Navas off, Berbatov and Arteta on. Arteta alongside Cabaye and Dembele, Berbatov joining Villa upfront. Play a 3-5-1-1/5-3-1-1 with the wingbacks still in operation and Berbatov dropping deep behind Villa, to punish Brescia if they overcommit.
If drawing: Villa and Sakho off, Berbatov and Ruiz on. Like for like, Ruiz keeps Spanish co-efficient up as Villa is replaced by a different style striker in Berbatov. Continue the gameplan and push for the win.
If losing: Anyukov and Dembele off, Berbatov and Kovacic on. Fuchs drops back to LB alongside the three CB’s to make a back four, Zabaleta to RB. Kovacic alongside Cabaye, with Navas, Berbatov, Villa and Costa the front four. Playing 4-2-4 with the fullbacks getting forward as well.

Team talk:
They have a rookie keeper today so make sure we test him out today. Gets shots in on goal, plenty of hustle and bustle on him at set pieces, plenty of runs across his line of sight.
Offensively,Pirlo will sit deep and pass the ball around, whilst Marchisio will drive forward supporting the attack. Jovetic will play centrally and be the focal point, whilst Affelay and Fischer will be everywhere, getting on the ball and running at the defence. FBs will overlap at times and provide additional width. Crosses and balls into the box need to be low and in behind the defenders.
Defensively, we will press the ball high up the pitch and win it back as early as possible. The CMs will protect the back four, particularly Toulalan who will sit in front and break up any attacks, and also fill any space that an opposition SS will try to operate in. Cervezas have the threat of skilful and pacey players on the flanks, so FBs will be more conservative and focus on defence before attack. When they do go forward, Marchisio and Pirlo will join Toulalan in covering them.
Buffon Stand tall, come for crosses that are close to you making them need to aim crosses further out. Use all your experience to command your defence. Distribute short as much as possible.
Full backs You are part of a unit, so keep your shape and defend together. Pick up any wide players , keep tight and force them to cross from wide and deep as much as possible. Be more conservative initially, but as the game goes on, if we need to chase the game, start to attack more.
CBs – Howedes will pick up the main striker, Barzagli will pick up any second striker if there is one. If not, he will play spare, sweeping up, plus tracking any midfield runners into the box
CMs – Toulalan will sit and protect the back four, and break up opposition attacks, When the FBs get forward, Toulalan will slot in alongside the CBs. Pirlo to sit in deeper playmaker position, get on the ball and dictate the tempo of the game, feeding the attacker. Marchisio – you will play box to box driving forward and getting to the edge of the box. Defensively, both will sit alongside Toulalan and protect the back four, filling the pace for any opposition AM.When the FBs get forward, you should cover them.
Inside Forwards – Freer roles today. Get the ball from the CMs and run at the defence. Go inside and out to beat your Get the ball low into the box, in behind the defence when we are central, low and across the box when it is wide. Swap your positions between yourselves to keep the defence guessing. Get in support of Jovetic. Defensively, pressurise the ball as soon as we lose it.
Striker - Jovetic will play as the focal point, but the IFs will be close by and he will essentially operate as one of an attacking trio. Look to get onto the balls into the box from the attacking players. Defensively, pressurise the ball as soon as we lose it.
If losing on 70 minutes

No Respek v Bratwurst Mannschaft
- No Respek:
- Week 2: FC No Respek vs Bratwurst Mannschaft
FC No Respek line-up:
--------------------- Foster --------------------
Debuchy -- Bonucci - Chiellini -- Baines
--------- Wanyama ---- Montolivo --------
Ben Arfa -------- Eriksen ----------- Giggs
----------------------- Ba ----------------------
Subs: Butland, Caulker, Mexes, Shaw, Parker, Tiote, Defoe
English players: 2 (Foster, Baines)
Injuries: Steven Gerrard + Jetro Willems
TACTICAL SUMMARY:
A home game against good opposition – let’s build on last week’s away draw and get a win under our belts! We’ve gone back to a 4-2-3-1 formation this week, building on our solid back four to play a possession game to stretch the opposition and to create space for our front four of Ben Arfa, Eriksen, Giggs and Ba. Wanyama will sit as the DM to break up play, Montolivo will act as playmaker, and Debuchy and Baines will support the flanks.
INDIVIDUAL INSTRUCTIONS:
GK - Foster – let the CBs know if you can claim the ball or if there is danger lurking around. Parry shots away from danger, try to catch the ball but punch to distance if you need to.
LCB - Chiellini – you will pick up the main striker. Keep tight on him, don’t let him settle, if he moves then move with him. Make sure you don’t dive in - keep him at bay until Bonucci can come across to dispossess him.
RCB - Bonucci – you will pick up the second striker (if there is one). If they play with one forward, you will sit slightly deeper than Chiellini, covering for him and ensuring the rest of the defence know their jobs.
LB - Baines – I want you to do what you do best – shackle their wingers and get forward to support Giggs. I want you taking free kicks too, put one away for us!
RB - Debuchy – ensure that their LW is nullified – keep him on the outside, get physical on him, and make sure that going forward you support Ben Arfa.
DM - Wanyama – you have two jobs: to get stuck in and put them off their game physically, and to keep the ball moving – get the ball to Eriksen or Montolivo, and get Ben Arfa and Giggs in down the flanks. Be wary of anyone playing in the hole – if Pato does, stick to him like glue.
Playmaker – Montolivo – your job is to sit deep, control the play, support the attack, get crosses in. You have a great range of passing – use it to feed the wingers, get the ball slid in for Ba’s runs at goal, and use Eriksen whenever he’s free.
AM – Eriksen – I want you to sit between the defence and midfield – if they play a DM, drift into space and get on the ball. You are a creative player so attack the defence, drop deep, move wide, do whatever you have to to get the opposition confused. Your main task is to get balls forward to Ba and wide to the wingers, and unleash your shot from distance when space opens up.
RM – Ben Arfa – you are tasked with beating their LB today. I want you to get on the ball and attack him, take him on, beat him, then look to cut inside and get a shot off or play a ball into Ba.
LM – Giggs – use all your experience to keep the ball moving, play in Eriksen and Ba when they’re free, and use the option of Baines to get crosses into the box for Ba to head in. You have a great engine to stop the RB from getting forward.
ST - Ba – I want you to keep the CBs confused so keep moving, and make plenty of diagonal runs across them. Your teammates will use of the space you create, so make sure you drag defenders with you, and get into the box for crosses and half-chances.
FC No Respek subs:
If winning after 75mins: Defoe for Ba. No change in tactics, merely fresh legs to take advantage of their tired defence.
If drawing after 75mins: Parker for Wanyama. Fresh legs on the pitch, allow Montolivo to get forward more, and get Baines and Debuchy to attack more down the flanks.
If losing after 75mins: Defoe for Montolivo. Move to a 4-1-3-2 formation but with a sense of urgency and directness installed throughout the midfield and attack:
- Bratwurst Mannschaft:
- -------------------------------- ADLER --------------------------------
--------------------- GODIN ------------------ CAHILL -----------------
---- JUNG --------------------------------------------- SCHMELZER ----
------------------- CLEVERLEY -------------- BENDER ------------------
--- SHAQIRI ------------------------------------------------ GAITAN ---
-------------------- MANDZUKIC ----------- PATO ----------------------
BENCH
Horn
Kehl
Boateng
Marin
Almeida
Pato
Kießling
TACTICS
They are likely to play five at the back so we should take advantage of that by attacking them in a straight 4-4-2. Constantly look to attack using the wings and double up. We can dominate the game there. Bender and Cleverley need to work hard in midfield to make sure we put pressure on their skillful players, with Pato also dropping back to mark Montolivo who we expect to sit deep.
DEFENSE
Ba is likely to be the main main in attack. Gary Cahill knows him well and should look to be the main marker of the striker, he is just as good aerially and should be able to win the battles. Do not allow yourself to be dragged too far away. If Ba tries to make the runs out wide, let him go and let a full back deal with him. If he has the ball out wide it's less of a threat in any case.
They are likely to play attacking midfielders in a free role behind the forward so use that to our advantage. We have players in midfield full of energy and they should be quick to close down their attacking midfielders such as Eriksen and Ben Arfa when they get the ball, work in tandem. Pato will be expected to drop back and get on Montolivo who will try to instigate their attacks from deep.
ATTACK
On the wings we can overload them by doubling up, and we should look to do just that. Charge forward and get plenty of balls into the box. Gaitan and Shaqiri can both cut inside and take their wide centre backs out of the game and leave Mandzukic and Pato with more space in the box. Cleverley should get forward if there is enough behind to deal with their attacking players so be cautious. Pato and Mandzukic should both make loads of runs. Chiellini and Bonucci are both big players who aren't the quickest and we can make the most of that with plenty of runs. If they try to get forward, playing a higher line then play on the shoulder of the last man and scare them with our pace. The deeper we can force their line the more space we can get for our midfielders to work in.
SET PIECES
Left Corner - Gaitan
Right Corner - Cleverley
Free Kicks - Gaitan
Penalties - Mandzukic
SUBSTITUTIONS
If winning bring on Kagawa and Boateng for Shaqiri and Pato to add fresh legs to the midfield. Play on the counter attack, Kagawa is good at getting on the shoulder and making runs clear.
If drawing bring on Kießling and Boateng for Shaqiri and Gaitan. Move to a 4-3-3 and get loads of balls into the box.
If losing bring on Kehl, Kießling and Kagawa for Jung, Schmelzer and Cleverley. Go to an all out attack with Kehl covering two centre backs, a four man midfield in front and three in attack.

Team Talk
We are up against one of the best teams in the league, I want us to approach the game using both centre and width. 9 men behind the ball when we don't have it and use our wingers to hit them on counter.
Fridel always communciate with defenders, try to catch the ball but punch if you have to. Stand big make goal look small and parry shots away from goal if you can hold on to them.
Simpson first aim is to defend watch the ball do not dive it try to push winger onto weaker foot or away from goal in path of our DM. When going forward make overlap runs and get crosses in.
Shawcross pick up main striker do not let him get into stride shoulder barge put him off don't dive in jockey him beat him to headers by using your leap.
Rami watch out for SS/AM try to intercept and block passes they'll try to make for main striker, get in the way reduce the gap of them getting ball forward.
Boateng first aim is to defend watch the ball do not dive it try to push winger onto weaker foot or away from goal in path of our DM. When going forward make overlap runs and get crosses in.
Ledesma our playmaker get the ball ticking watch for wingers making runs inside or behind defenders. Always demand ball drop deeper if they are trying to mark you help in defensive duty.
Gundogan more defensive of the two put pressure when they come in our half watch runners track back cover for players keep passing simple nothing to fancy and at times drive forward with ball.
Rodriguez mix it up use width and get balls into the box and also come inside linking with Holtby and running forward making defenders commit.
Holtby get into free pockets look to get balls through for Quag always stay on the move drop deep when we defending make runs off Quaq and get into box.
Draxler dribble with ball look to pass ball and continue your movement forward. Get crosses in for attackers and switch wings with Rodriguez at times.
Quagliarella always stay on the move when you get ball pass it simple and get forward stay on shoulder of defenders knock ball on and if you have chance from distance shoot with your powerful shots.

Team Talk: After a solid start to the league last season with a draw we travel away to Pass the Deutschie. They have a strong midfield but can be got at out wide. Ménez and Tello will be instrumental to us winning today and I want both of them to terrorize the Deutschie fullbacks. Isco to play in the hole and cause havok as he does every week. Soldado in his first week as club captain to play off the shoulder of the center back and punish Deutschies defence that will be missing two key players.
Cabellero - Command your box, claim the crosses.
Azpiliceuta/Monreal - Alternate who is forward and make sure you always get back as Deutschie are dangerous on the flanks, when they have the ball I want you to force their wingers wide before whipping the ball off of them and breaking with speed. Azpiliceuta can really aid us as Gibbs is out for them at left back.
Garay/Varane - Garay to stick to Huntelaar, prevent him from settling. If you do that he will switch off as he has proved in the past. Varane can then sweep and pick up the CAM/SS if they play one. Be strong in the air.
Matuidi - I want you on Holtby/whoever they focus their play through. Prevent them from settling and don't be afraid to get physical. Use your physical presence to prevent them from getting going. If we disrupt their play it'll make our job easier.
Beñat - Deep lying playmaker role for you today when we have the ball look for the passes to Isco and the plethora of attacking talent that we have, we have a great chance to hurt Deutschie with the players we have so be the start point of our attacks. Look for Isco inparticular who will be making a nuisance of himself. When they have the ball drop back so we are never outnumbered.
Isco - Key role as always for you today, play inbetween the lines and in the space that Soldado's movement provides you with. Be our creative central point and don't be afraid to drift wherever you want to. Look to involve Ménez/Tello/Soldado wherever possible and use them to drift past whoever is given the unenviable task of marking you.
Ménez/Tello - As mentioned in the team talk they are weak at fullback especially with Gibbs out. Beat their fullbacks all day either on the outside or by driving inside. When you come inside look to link up with Isco and play our ticka tacka football to get into the box. When outside look to get deep and whip it in for Soldado to finish.
Soldado - Club captain now and for a reason. You are our tallisman and our goal machine. I want you to use your trademark movement to provide room for Isco to play in and finish any chances that come our way. Goals, Goals, Goals thats what you do best.

Corners - Ménez - CBs come forward, Matuidi to stay back with FBs. Aim for the big heads of Soldado, Garay and Varane.

If losing at 75 minutes, Beñat off Mkhitaryan on. More attacking presence. Go 4-1-3-2 with Mkhitaryan playing just off of Soldado.

Team Talk: We're playing our fellow champions today but we've got a great time to play them as their players will be aware of the impending change of manager. With this in mind we will look to control the game through simple passing football and utilising our wide men. They have strong fullbacks however through Ménez and Tello we have players who can really hurt them by switching wings and not allowing either of them to settle. In the center of the park I'd imagine it'll be two from Montolivo/Wanyama/Carrick with Lamela or Pato playing in the CAM role as Eriksen is out this week. That alone will allow us to control the flow of the play. As long as we control proceedings we can win today!
Caballero - They have quick forwards so command your box, you're a great keeper so lets keep a clean sheet today!
Gámez/Monreal - Force their wingers out wide, and keep an eye out for their fullbacks getting forward although with the attacking talent in front of you their attacking adventures should be limited. Be sensible on the attack but make sure you are back so we are never outnumbered
Varane/Garay - Varane to mark Ba, you have the speed to stay with him and use your strength to muscle him off the ball. Garay to pick up any runners from deep (Presumably Lamela or Pato). Work together to ensure that we are solid at the back at all times
Matuidi - Mark their CAM out of the game, use your strength to overwhelm whoever they deploy in that position. Both Pato and Lamela are there to be pushed around. When we have the ball look for our attacking plethora of talent
Sissoko - Box to box today, when they have the ball get back alongside Matuidi and protect our back four. Baines and Debuchy will be looking at getting forward so keep an eye on them and use your pace to cut them off. When we have the ball I want you to burst forward and link up with Isco. You have a great shot on you so if you're in the position to have a shot do so.
Ménez/Tello - I want you to terrorize their fullbacks, both of them like to get forward so there will be plenty of space to exploit. I want you to swap wings as well so neither of them can settle on you. When you drift inside link up with Isco but overall I want dangerous crosses coming in for Soldado to finish
Isco - As always you are our lynchpin and the center of our attacking intentions, operate in the space that Soldado provides us with. It'll either be Carrick or Wanyama "marking" you so I want you to drift and not allow them to attempt their job. Look to play in Soldado with cute little through balls, as well as Ménez/Tello out wide or even Sissoko who will be bursting forward to get alongside you
Soldado - Utilise your great movement to provide Isco with room to operate within, drift between their center backs and get them out of shape. You will have great service from Isco, Ménez and Tello and I want you to prove why your the best striker in the league today! Goals, Goals, Goals!

Corners: Tello/Ménez - Matuidi to stay back with the FBs. Aim for big heads of Soldado, Sissoko, Varane and Garay
Freekicks: Isco

Regardless of score at 75 minutes, Sissoko off - Pogba on. Like for like, fresh legs in the box to box role
If losing at 85 minutes, Matuidi off - Negredo on, Tello off - Mkhitaryan on - Go for broke to snatch a draw and hopefully a win! Formation changes to 4-4-2 Diamond with Isco at the top and Pogba at the botto, Mkhitaryan on the right and Ménez on the left.

- Week 4: Deportivo la Chorizo vs No Respek FC
FC No Respek line-up:
---------------------- Foster -------------------
Debuchy -- Bonucci -- Chiellini -- Baines
----- Wanyama -- Carrick -- Giggs -------
------------ Lamela ----- Pato ---------------
------------------------ Ba ---------------------
Subs: Butland, Mexes, Zaccardo, Montolivo, Camacho, Totti, Defoe
English players: 3 (Foster, Baines, Carrick)
Injuries: Christian Eriksen + Wilfried Zaha
TACTICAL SUMMARY:
This is it lads. Champions vs Champions. Us against Deportivo la Chorizo. The biggest game of the season so far. We will take them by surprise with our 4-3-2-1 formation, and look to Carrick to orchestrate the midfield from deep while the FBs join the attack. Lamela and Pato both have free reign to drift into space and run at the defence, while Ba will spearhead our attacks with his power and pace. Let’s get a win over our big rivals and show everyone how good we can be!
INDIVIDUAL INSTRUCTIONS:
GK - Foster – let the CBs know if you can claim the ball or if there is danger lurking around. Parry shots away from danger, try to catch the ball but punch to distance if you need to.
LCB - Chiellini – you will pick up the main striker. Keep tight on him, don’t let him settle, if he moves then move with him. Make sure you don’t dive in - keep him at bay until Bonucci can come across to dispossess him.
CCB - Bonucci – you will pick up the second striker (if there is one). If they play with one forward, you will sit slightly deeper than Chiellini, covering for him and ensuring the rest of the defence know their jobs.
LB - Baines – I want you to concentrate on your defensive duties today. Keep tight on the winger, force him wide and block the cross. When you can get forward do so, but always make sure you’re in position defensively.
RB - Debuchy – ensure that their LW is nullified – keep him on the outside, get physical on him and don’t get any crosses get in.
CM - Wanyama – you have two jobs: to get stuck in and put them off their game physically, and to keep the ball moving – get the ball to Carrick or Giggs, and find Lamela and Pato in space. Be wary of anyone playing in the hole – if the opponents play an AM, stick to him tight and don’t let him play.
CM – Carrick – your job is to sit deep, control the play, and support the attack with your trademark through balls. You have a great range of passing – use it to feed Lamela and Pato, and get the ball slid in for Ba’s runs at goal.
CM – Giggs – I want you to help Wanyama defensively, and to help Carrick with setting up attacks. You can drop deep, move wide, do whatever you have to get the ball moving and the opposition tired. Your main task is to get balls forward to Lamela, Pato and Ba.
AM – Lamela – You have a free role today – get into space, get the ball, run at the defence and into the gaps created by Ba and Pato. I want you to attack the defence, get through them, and get shots on goal. You have great pace so you will tire the opposition, keep going til the very end!
AM – Pato – it’s your debut for us Alex – you have a free role to confuse the opposition. Get into space, get on the ball, run at the defence and get shots on goal. Ba will be playing ahead of you so try and play him in if he has a chance at scoring.
ST - Ba – I want you to keep the CBs confused so keep moving, and make plenty of diagonal runs across them. Lamela and Pato will use the space you create, so make sure you drag defenders with you, and get into the box for crosses and half-chances.
FC No Respek subs:
If winning after 75mins: Defoe for Ba. Fresh legs to take advantage of their tired defence – Defoe is to run at the defence and get shots on goal.
If drawing after 75mins: Camacho for Wanyama. Fresh legs on the pitch, allow Giggs to get forward more, and get Baines and Debuchy to attack more down the flanks.
If losing after 75mins: Defoe and Totti for Wanyama and Giggs. Move to a 4-1-3-2 formation but with a sense of urgency and directness installed throughout the midfield and attack.

Carvajal---Godin---Cahill---Schmelzer
Shaqiri---Bender---Cabaye---Gaitan
--------------Mandzukic-------------
(Kehl on Pirlo, explained in tactical instructions)
General Tactics: New management today boys, and we are facing a strong side in Brescia. However today we will nullify them, and look to hit with our counter attack style. Our formation will be two banks of four, with Mandzukic up front. Kehl will stay on Pirlo all game, he does not have a role apart from that. Lets be strong at the back, and hit them with sharp incisive counter attacks.
Tactical Instructions:
Adler - Command the back four today. Anything floated up in the air, you come and get it. They will take shots from long range, so be ready, nothing will beat you from there if you keep your concentration. Look to distribute long to Mandzukic or through the full backs.
Carvajal and Schmelzer - They will look to hurt us with there wing play today. Do not let Robben cut inside and shoot, whichever side he plays, force him to pass which, well, he won't. Force the wingers out wide, and into crosses, we can handle there aerial threat. If you can get forward, do so. However do not leave us exposed to a counter from them.
Cahill and Godin - The back four need to be in a good straight line, Godin is our leader at the back and should control this. We should be generally just on the edge of the area where there is not enough space to play behind and trying to restrict them too long range efforts. Cahill and Godin both have a height advantage on Tevez and should make the most of that by winning all of the aerial balls.
Cabaye and Bender - Big role for you two today. I don't want us getting too deep on the back four, however if they play a CAM we shall drop a little deeper to account for that. Bender will look to break up play, Cabaye also. Marchisio likes to make runs from deep, so it is paramount that you track these runs as he is dangerous. When in possession, we hit the wings quickly. Cabaye look to break from deep, Bender you hold fort at all times.
Shaqiri and Gaitan - Boys a huge role today. You must be disciplined in your defensive duties. Get back in and double up with your FB's, and don't let the wingers/fb's cut inside, force them wide. When we counter, we are looking to you two to cause trouble. Take on your full backs and whip in crosses for Mandzukic, or cut inside and shoot. Be direct, it is important we attack at pace.
Mandzukic - Big role for you today and you play it amazingly well. If we have to go long quickly, we hit you. You must hold the ball up, so it allows us to relieve some pressure. When holding it up, look to hit Cabaye or the wingers. We will look to get crosses in, you are a great header of the ball, so look to pinch us some goals to win us the game.
Kehl - Unique role for you today. You follow Pirlo around the pitch. You stick to him like a leech. I do not want you more than a yard away from him at anytime. You have no position, your only role is to make sure he does not dictate play for them from deep. Even when we attack, you stay with Pirlo. If he takes a set piece, you go straight to him afterwards. I want Pirlo smelling of Sebastien Kehl after the game. And I don't mean after you've swapped shirts with him.

Team talk:
New manager at the opposition today and a number of changes. We want to take advantage of the short preparation by really getting at Bratwurst today. We anticipate a 4-2-3-1, so we are going 4-4-2 to try and exploit the fact they have wide forward players being further up the pitch and full backs who like to push on. through our own flying wingers and full backs.
Defensively we will press the ball immediately and win it back as high up the pitch as possible. We will play a high line and squeeze the space for the attacking players of Bratwurst
Buffon Stand tall, come for crosses that are close to you making them need to aim crosses further out. Use all your experience to command your defence. Distribute short as much as possible. Be on your toes for balls in behind the defence and sweep them up.
Full backs You are part of a unit, so keep your shape and defend together. Play a high line to squeeze the space for them to play in. Pick up any wide players , keep tight and force them to cross from wide and deep as much as possible. Get forward when you can, to support the winger, overlapping and getting low balls in between keeper and defence.
CBs – Howedes will pick up the main striker, Barzagli will pick up any second striker if there is one. If not, he will play spare, sweeping up, plus tracking any midfield runners into the box. Play a high line to squeeze the space ahead of you.
CMs –. Pirlo to sit in deeper playmaker position, get on the ball and dictate the tempo of the game, feeding the attackers. Get the ball either into the wingers feet, or in behind for them to run onto. Marchisio to provide the drive and energy in midfield, breaking up attacks before they get going. Occasionally drive on to the edge of the box, looking for chances of shots on goal When the FBs get forward, you should both support the CBs and cover them.
Wingers – Alternate between receiving the ball deep and running at the defence, and spinning in behind. When you get the ball, we want the full box of tricks. When we lose the ball, press the ball straight away and win it back as quickly as possible, then attack before they have a chance to organise themselves.
Striker – A perfect partnership to keep the defence on their toes. Fischer to provide pace and look to get in behind, to try and force their defence backwards. Tevez to drop a little deeper bringing the defence out. We want them unsure of whether to sit higher or deeper. Defensively, both press the ball early.

- Dos Cervezas por favor v Deportivo la Chorizo
Injuries: Ashley Williams, Jesus Navas4-3-3/4-5-1
Sergio Asenjo (SPA)
Pablo Zabaleta – Mats Hummels – Laurent Koscielny – Yuto Nagatomo
Moussa Dembele – Jeremy Toulalan – Mikel Arteta (SPA)

Subs: Thomas Kaminski, Victor Ruiz (SPA), Andoni Iraola (SPA), Pedro Obiang (SPA), Mateo Kovacic, Ronaldinho, David Villa (SPA)
Manager’s note: The start of a double header against our Spanish rivals, this week Chorizo’s injury is Paul Pogba. Their main threats are Soldado upfront with Isco in the hole and Menez out wide. I expect them to play a form of 4-2-3-1, with Matuidi and either Benat or Sissoko in the middle of the park. I want us to play a high tempo game and get at their midfield, which is why we’re playing with three CM’s. Control the middle of the park, Susaeta and Costa to drop back to a 4-5-1 when we don’t have the ball but 4-3-3 when we do.
Asenjo, command your area, stay in communication with your defence, use the fullbacks and midfielders dropping deep to begin attacks with the wingers and the ball over the top as an option.
Hummels/Koscielny, Soldado is your main target, I want Hummels to be all over him, give him no chance to turn and shoot, force him deeper into areas he struggles in, Koscielny to be the one who cleans up and stops any runs into the area from Isco.
Zabaleta, possibly up against Tello, force him wide, don’t let him inside. Use your head and don’t dive in. Let him dribble into no-man’s land, close down any crosses and occasionally support the wingers.
Nagatomo, up against Menez, you’re one of the few defenders in the league with pace to match him, watch out for the ball over the top but also don’t be afraid to push him back. Always force him outside as crossing isn’t his strong point but still stay close to cut out any passes.
Toulalan, I want you to sit infront of the back four rather than track Isco. If he drops deep, let one of Dembele and Arteta pick him up, don’t allow space in behind you. If he’s running at you, cut him off. When on the ball, use your fellow CM’s. Cover at fullback when one of them gets forward.
Dembele/Arteta, help out when we don’t have the ball, but when we do I want Arteta to be the deep lying playmaker, look for the wingers and Dembele making runs. Dembele I want you to be marauding through their midfield, Matuidi wont know what’s hit him. Shoot if either of you get the chance.
Susaeta/Costa, drop back to 4-5-1 without the ball, when we do have the ball I want you to burst forward, look to catch their fullbacks out, get crosses into the area for Berbatov, but also look to cut inside and link up with each other. Get shots in if you can.
Berbatov, playing you ahead of Villa due to your skills at holding up possession and feeding the wingers. Classy finisher, I want you to be in the area looking to poach a goal or two when the crosses come in. When you don’t have the ball, stick to Varane, he’s young and temperamental and if you annoy him by keeping the ball from him he will react. Turn and shoot when given the opportunity.
-------------
Subs: 70 mins
If winning: Arteta and Berbatov off, Obiang and Villa on. 4-5-1, Costa and Susaeta sit deeper at RM and LM, Obiang to add more steel to the midfield as we close the game out.
If drawing: Susaeta and Costa off, Iraola and Villa on. Nagatomo and Iraola as wingbacks, Zabaleta part of the back three and Villa joins Berbatov upfront as we move to 3-5-2.
If losing: Toulalan and Susaeta off, Iraola and Villa on. Zabaleta part of a back 3, Nagatomo and Iraola as attacking wingbacks and we move to 3-4-3 with Dembele and Arteta in CM. Push forward for the equaliser. Villa at LW and Costa to RW cutting inside to pass, shoot or feed the wingback, something different out wide.
If still losing on 82 mins: Dembele off, Ronaldinho on. Extra creativity in the middle of the park, try something different.

-------------- Soldado (c) ---------------
Team Talk - Tight game today against our Spanish rivals, they are tough to break down but we have the attacking talent to get around them. The battle in the midfield will be key, Matuidi to pick up Dembele who is usually key to how they play. Isco will have room to operate in as he is likely to be marked by Toulalan who he knows well in real life, drift into the space and look for the quick passes to get Tello and Ménez into the game as well as Soldado. Most importantly I want us to keep posession and get them chasing shadows, keep the energy high when we attack and get the ball back quickly when they have it.
Caballero - Control your box and make sure Varane and Garay are aware to any threats
Azpiliceuta/Monreal - When we have the ball I have no problem with one of you going forward to overlap your winger but make sure that you get back as soon as they have the ball. Even without Navas they are dangerous on the wings so it is imperative that we are never caught out.
Varane/Garay - They are likely to play a lone striker in Villa so I want Garay to mark him, Villa doesn't have the yard of pace he used to so make him feel your presence. Varane to sweep and pick up a second striker if they play one otherwise pick up any runners from deep. Be strong in the air and a genuine threat from corners as always.
Matuidi - You are one of the best DCMs in Europe so I'm deploying you against Dembele who is likely to play in an advanced role for them, if he doesn't then pick up their CAM. Either way I want you to rough house them and make them uncomfortable. Finally if you find yourself forward for any reason have a pop as you've got one heck of a strike on you!
Sissoko - Box to box again this week for you, when they have the ball get back and make a brick wall with Matuidi that they will have to get through. Keep the energy up and break up their play. When we have the ball break forward and provide Isco with another option as well as allowing our wingers to have another dangerous option to deal with.
Ménez/Tello - They have fullbacks who will look to get forward which gives us the perfect chance to exploit this and get in behind them, make the fullbacks life a living hell as to prevent you they are going to have stay back and fight their natural instincts. You will also have the option of our own fullbacks this week so use them on the overlap. I also want you to switch wings from time to time so that their fullbacks are fully bamboozled! Alternate your runs between going outside to whip in crosses and cutting inside to link up with Isco.
Isco - Play between the lines and make a nuisance of yourself, undoubtably they will deploy a DCM against you (As mentioned in the team talk it'll likely be Toulalan). Feel free to roam into space and pull him with you as this will provide room for Sissoko to burst into as well as Ménez and Tello to drift into. Use all of your bag of tricks to force your way through. You proved this week in real life how much of a handful you are!
Soldado - Utilise your great movement to provide room for us to operate in, I'd imagine it will be new signing Hummels who will be deployed to mark you. We can use this to our advantage by dragging him out of position as he won't want to move to far away from his central area. With our attacking talent behind you I can promise you will have chances!
----
Corners - Ménez/Tello - Matuidi to stay back with the fullbacks, aim for the big heads. We will have the advantage at set pieces due to the likes of Varane, Garay, Sissoko and Soldado.
Freekicks - Isco
Penalties - Soldado
----
Subs:
If winning at 75 minutes - Azpliliceuta off, Gámez on. More defensive minded right back, help us see the game out.
If winning at 80 minutes - Sissoko off, Beñat on. Bring on Beñat to increase possession, if we have the ball they cannot score!
If losing or drawing at 80 minutes - Sissoko off, Mkhitaryan on. Go to the system we had last season with Mkhitaryan and Isco doubling up on their DCM, overpower them in the center with Matuidi holding behind them

Captain: Howedes
Free kicks and Corners: Pirlo
Penalties: Tevez
Italians: Perin, Marchisio, Pirlo, Cassani, Florenzi, De Sciglio
Team talk:
Defensively, we press high up the pitch and win the ball back quickly before the opposition can even think about how to attack.
Offensively, Pirlo to dictate the tempo and feed the 3 attacking mids. If you are followed closely, we bypass Pirlo and it should mean Jovetic in more space to run at the defence. Tevez to operate up front, but with the AMs in close support.
Perin Stand tall, come for crosses that are close to you making them need to aim crosses further out. Use all your experience to command your defence. Distribute short as much as possible. Be on your toes for balls in behind the defence and sweep them up.
Full backs You are part of a unit, so keep your shape and defend togetherPick up any wide players , keep tight and force them to cross from wide and deep as much as possible. Get forward when you can, to support the winger, overlapping and getting low balls in between keeper and defence.
CBs – Ivanovic will pick up the main striker, Howedes will pick up any second striker if there is one. If not, he will play spare, sweeping up, plus tracking any midfield runners into the box. Both will go forward for corners and set pieces.
CMs –. Pirlo to sit in deeper playmaker position, get on the ball and dictate the tempo of the game, feeding the attackers. Get the ball either into the wingers feet, or in behind for them to run onto. Marchisio to provide the drive and energy in midfield, breaking up attacks before they get going. Occasionally drive on to the edge of the box, looking for chances of shots on goal When the FBs get forward, you should both support the CBs and cover them.
Wingers – Alternate between receiving the ball deep and running at the defence, and spinning in behind. When you get the ball, we want the full box of tricks. We want to keep the defence on their toes and stretch them all over the place. When crossing, go low and hard between the CBs and keeper. When we lose the ball, press the ball straight away and win it back as quickly as possible, then attack before they have a chance to organise themselves. Switch sides to keep the full backs guessing
Jovetic – A free role behind the main striker today. Get on the ball and run at the defence. Go where you want to create the most havoc and cause the most damage. We want to keep the defence on their toes and stretch them all over the place. Defensively, press the ball early.
Tevez – The main focal point of our attacks. Work hard and stretch the defence, and bring the AMs into the attack. When the ball goes wide, get in the box.. We want them unsure of whether to sit higher or deeper. Defensively, both press the ball early.

- FC No Respek line-up v Afro.
------------------- Foster -------------------
Walker-- Bonucci -- Chiellini -- Baines
----- Wanyama -- Carrick -- Giggs -------
------------------Eriksen------------------
-----------------Ba---Defoe--------------
Subs: Butland, Mexes, Zaccardo, Montolivo, Camacho, Totti,
English players: 4 (Foster, Baines, Carrick,Walker)
Injuries: Erik Lamela , Alexandre Pato
TACTICAL SUMMARY:
This is a winable game they are missing there best keeper and CB in Gianluigi Buffon and Andrea Barzagli so we should cause them a threat as Buffon is key to there team as is the CB so look to get past there CB's and cause them problem do this for the fans..and most importantly for AZZY!
INDIVIDUAL INSTRUCTIONS:
GK - Foster – let the CBs know if you can claim the ball or if there is danger lurking around. Parry shots away from danger, try to catch the ball but punch to distance if you need to.
LCB - Chiellini – you will pick up the main striker. Keep tight on him, don’t let him settle, if he moves then move with him. Make sure you don’t dive in - keep him at bay until Bonucci can come across to dispossess him as you are captain make sure there is good communication in the defense
CCB - Bonucci – you will pick up the second striker (if there is one). If they play with one forward, you will sit slightly deeper than Chiellini, covering for him and ensuring the rest of the defence know their jobs.
LB - Baines – I want you to concentrate on your defensive duties today. Keep tight on the winger, force him wide and block the cross. When you can get forward do so, but always make sure you’re in position defensively.
RB - Walker – ensure that their LW is nullified – keep him on the outside, get physical on him and don’t get any crosses get in.
CM - Wanyama – you have two jobs: to get stuck in and put them off their game physically, and to keep the ball moving – get the ball to Carrick or Giggs, and find Lamela and Pato in space. Be wary of anyone playing in the hole – if the opponents play an AM, stick to him tight and don’t let him play.
CM – Carrick – your job is to sit deep, control the play, and support the attack with your trademark through balls. You have a great range of passing – use it to feed Eriksen in and to help him try and get our strikers in , and get the ball slid in for Ba’s runs at goal.
CM – Giggs – I want you to help Wanyama defensively, and to help Carrick with setting up attacks. You can drop deep, move wide, do whatever you have to get the ball moving and the opposition tired. Your main task is to get balls forward to Eriksen/Ba/Defoe
AM – Eriksen – You have a free role today and our a key man in our creativity– get into space, get the ball, run at the defence and into the gaps created by Ba and defoe I want you to attack the defence, get through them, and get shots on goal. You have great pace so you will tire the opposition, keep going til the very end!
ST – defoe – get on headers when needed and try and get shots on target. – y. Get into space, get on the ball, run at the defence and get shots on goal. Ba will be there if you need to play the ball to him, try and confuse CB and give them a real hassle.
ST - Ba – I want you to keep the CBs confused so keep moving, and make plenty of diagonal runs across them.l use the space you create, so make sure you drag defenders with you, and get into the box for crosses and half-chances.

-----------Bender---Cabaye----------
Shaqiri----------Ben Arfa-------Gaitan
--------------Mandzukic-------------
General Tactics: Right today boys we are going to take the attack to Pass the Deutschie. We're going to get the ball down, and play with pace using the full width of the pitch. Full backs will have license to bomb on, with Cabaye pulling the strings in the middle of the park. Lets play some nice, fast paced football today, whilst also playing a high pressure game on The Deutschie, not allowing them to feed there good attacking players.
Tactical Instructions:
Adler - Command the back four today. Anything floated up in the air, you come and get it. They will take shots from long range, so be ready, nothing will beat you from there if you keep your concentration. Look to distribute long to Mandzukic or through the full backs.
Carvajal and Schmelzer - They will look to hurt us with there wing play today. Do not let them cut inside and shoot. Force the wingers out wide, and into crosses, we can handle there aerial threat. I want you two to play a much more attacking full back role today, even if there wingers stay forward, you push on and look to create overlaps with Shaqiri and Gaitan respectively.
Cahill and Godin - The back four need to be in a good straight line, Godin is our leader at the back and should control this. We are playing a high pressing game, so look to squeeze up when possible, communication is key here. Cahill has the pace to cover. Cahill is good enough to bring the ball out from the back, and feed Cabaye.
Cabaye and Bender - Big role for you two today. I want us to play a high pressure game when defending, so look to really get in the faces of there CM's Bender will look to break up play, whilst Cabaye will pull the strings. When in possession, we hit the wings quickly. Cabaye look to break from deep, Bender you hold fort at all times.
Shaqiri, Ben Arfa and Gaitan - You three have full attacking license today. I want you interchanging throughout the game, unless one of you has the beating of a FB, then you stay there and carry on beating them. When on the wings, either cut inside and look to shoot or pass to the overlapping FB, or look to get a cross in for Mandzukic. Don't be afraid to shoot, Freidel is old, he can't get down so quick no more. When playing CAM, you find that pocket of space, and look to turn and run at the defence, causing havoc.
Mandzukic - Big role for you today and you play it amazingly well. If we have to go long quickly, we hit you. We will look to get crosses in, you are a great header of the ball, so look to pinch us some goals to win us the game. Really get stuck into there CB's, don't let them bully you.
Set pieces

Free Kicks - Cabaye

Subs:
If winning/drawing: 70 mins Ben Arfa for Kehl. Go 4-5-1/4-3-3 and look to play on the counter with the quick wingers. Kehl drops in alongside Cabaye, with Bender going to CDM. FB's not so attacking now.
If losing: 65 mins Cabaye for Kießling. Go 4-1-3-2 with Bender holding, and Kießling up top with Mandzukic. Attack like crazy.

Team Talk: Let's get our first win of the season. Go out there and show why we should be higher up in the league. Fight for each ball fight for each other and give your all.
Fridel: Communicate with defenders let them know if you can claim ball try to catch but punch if you have to. Make yourself big tip shots away from danger.
Defenders play a high line as we have the pace to get back.
Jung: Priority is to defend first watch ball jockey your man push him away from goal block crosses. When attacking make forward runs making space.
Rami: Pick up main striker don't let him settle on ball shoulder barge him. Don't dive in try and limit the space he has. Push him away from goal.
Boateng: Watch SS/AM they will try to make passes block and intercept get in the way. Don't dive in and don't get dragged out of position.
Jung: Priority is to defend first watch ball jockey your man push him away from goal block crosses. When attacking make forward runs making space.
Ledesma: Dictate the tempo get ball of CB look to spray long balls to wide men or shorter balls to CM keep ball moving. Track your runner and jockey him.
Gundogan: More defensive help Ledesma close them down get in thier faces make them go backwards. Drive forward with the ball times.
Holtby: Try and get forward make through balls to striker run with ball get into pockets free space run of Huntelaar.
Farfan: Give us width and delivery get balls in for attackers vary your crosses. Use your pace and control to beat your man make him commit.
Rodriguez: Cut inside get a shot or make a pass. Trickery and pace to beat your man always ask for ball and run at them. Get balls in for attackers. Get behind the RB and CB.
Huntelaar: Play central dont drift wide, get the ball and pass always stay on the move. Make late runs gamble on where the ball will go and get there.
