Possesion

[lyoj1]

Would like to know what the best way to play so that you can hold the ball and see out the last 10-15 mins of games. What's best to do in terms of instructions with any formation and what formations are best for possesion.

Short passing
Slow Tempo
4-5-1
PPM's for players things like 'Play 1-2s'
I cant really tell you much else, youll just have to wait for one of these tactical geniuses to tell you

Possession doesnt always mean Short passing, U can play long/direct/mixed passes and still remain in possession. But since Ur lookin only for last 10-15 mins, then mebbey shouts like Retain Possession wud do the trick regarding em. Time Wasting Often/Sometimes, tho it can backfire U, remember it. Slow Tempo came up already, put ur attacking players to hold up ball.

You can instruct your whole team to hold up the ball if you have the players that are composed in doing it
