41212 Narrow

[drfcraz]

Could someone please give me advice on what some good instructions & players roles would be effective for a narrow diamond?

I want to be a good passing side which picks teams apart.

My current instructions are Normal tempo, shorter passing, slightly higher line, exploit middle, work ball into box, shorter passing, tighter marking, sometimes press & stay on feet.

So you selected all those instructions without any idea of what mentality, roles and duties you'll be using? So you haven't seen the tactic in action at all... how do you know that you needed them?

It's also very difficult to suggest anything without knowing the squad and the players and whether they suit what is suggested. It's far simpler for you to make the decision yourself.
