Hiya can you guys fill me in with the new guidelines on the counter attack/break on as I always thought the idea was to get the ball forward quickly and take advantage of the numerical amount of players before the opposition catch up many thanks :)

Unless you've got pace on the pitch you're not going to complete a quick counter attack. City have nearly always lacked pace, that's why Edwards on loan from WBA has been a breath of fresh air. Watkins and Wheeler added pace too of course.

Thanks maybe that's why our guys seemed to cut it back today every time it seemed that let all the defenders catch up before unsuccessfuly pushing on.
