Interchanging positions. Yes. Did that very well, whereas on Saturday it

seemed that we did the opposite, with two or more players in the same position, trying to chase the same ball or make the same tackle.

There was one occasion when, in midfield, three of our players went in for the same tackle, which the Ippo player spun out of, therefore beating three with one move and leaving nothing between them and our defenders. I think we eventually got away with it. Was the most dramatic example but similar was happening all game, especially in the first half.

Also, I noticed that now and again we are more often trying to "hunt in packs" on the counter-press. However, again it is not well organised and all the pack are just going for the ball at the same time meaning that even when we did manage to rob it, there was nobody there ready in space to receive the ball so we just lost it again
