Yes, that's true. They showed a graphic on The Round So Far that highlighted precisely this point. But I'm not sure that's the main reason their forward line functions so well. They just seem more coherent, more cognisant of one's another's patterns and movements, of the defenders' patterns and movements etc., than our boys.
