A tactic used by Rotherham United in the Championship to get to 4th despite being expected to be in a relegation battle. Originally a cautious tactic, but board expectations wanted attacking football so in frustration, the mentality was changed and we just. kept. winning.
The idea is to get the ball forward quickly to the target man, who should lay it off to a winger or advanced playmaker who can penetrate the defence and cause havoc, whether it be with a key pass or a shot. Nothing revolutionary but exceeded all expectations.
