Howto: Possession, Attacking and Movement off the ball

Here is a good YouTube video of several Barcelona FC at their best: in possession.

"Offer, Recieve, Pass, Offer"
is their philosophy.

They have achieved such great success because they recognize and help each other with good supporting positions. When one player makes a darting forward run, another fills the space that was created. This constant movement creates confusion in opponents defense and gives Barcelona chances to score.



Bonus: Notice how the #2 and #5 are really attackers in the Barcelona/Sac Utd system and how eager they are to get forward. Something to think about.
