We need to hold onto the ball find the short options and not over-handball - which Bolton rightly pointed out invites pressure. Control the tempo and avoid getting run off your legs chasing tail.
It's obvious to say this results from deficiencies in player experience and skill, but some of it is due to deficiency in training as well.
I found it abhorrent that MM nursed young players through pre-season to avoid collision injuries, it just slows progress in the critical areas of skill development.
You must train the way you want to play, or you'll end up playing the way you train!
