    Use of Width

    Wing-backs contribute both defensively and offensively, stretching the play.

    Conflicting Directions

    Possession Management

    Heavy reliance on counterattacks may lead to phases of ineffective possession.

    Tactical Suggestions

    Consider adjusting the duty of one wing-back to support defense more effectively.

    Adjust Midfield Dynamics

    Implementing a deeper role like a Defensive Midfielder for more balance.

    Utilize Clearances

    Encouraging longer passes from the back during counter situations could lead to better transitions.
