Key Strengths
Dynamic Attacking Front

Quick Recovery with Counter-Press

Conflicting Directions
Inverted Wing-Back Role
The IWB role may limit width provided by conventional wide play, hindering stretch across the pitch.
Counter-Press vs. High Defensive Line
While effective, it could expose the backline to quick counter-attacks if not well executed.
High Tempo with Direct Passing
High tempo may lead to rushed decisions and poor passing accuracy under pressure.
Tactical Suggestions
Adjust Full-Back Roles
Consider changing the IWB to a more conventional FB role to maintain better width and balance.
Monitor Defensive Vulnerabilities
Assess the team shape during transitions to avoid being exposed by quick counter-attacks.
Utilize Bench Options for Flexibility
Evaluate adjusting Mentality or Tactical Style based on opposing team strengths or weaknesses.
