King is basically criticising the same players for running with an opponent, so it can't be that they don't chase, he wants them to stand their ground and mark a space/zone. If they do that then you or he will say they don't chase. It's a no win situation for them in that circumstance.
The real problem is that we consistently have three players from our midfield not guarding anybody, not picking up loose players, not holding a zone and not involved in the play. They run one way, and even then only run half the time!
I don't want them guarding grass like what happened with Bolton... You still have to chase and pressure even with little hope of success sometimes.. See Hooker vs Buddy..
Our blokes don't see it that way, often they just slow up and give it away..
