I couldn't think of a better name, All I can say is you better watch out for that counter when you opponent has a formation called the umbrella.
With two defenders, one defensive midfielder, 2 box midfield to support the attacking and a whooping 5 man attack consisting of 3 attackers and two wingers. 2-1-2-5
two defenders as usual because two is enough defense is mostly shadow marking and incisive tackles .there is a keeper at the post he shouldn't be useless
one defensive midfielders directly infront, He is the conductor to be assisted by the two midfielders in the front who either spread the ball to mthe wingers to attack from the flanks or cross it to the three man ever ready to score.
cross and nod are deadlier because there is always a man in the box, it becomes this permanent point of scrimmage where there's sure to be rebounds fouls hand ball and penalty
defense will be on edge they can be countered
With a high pressing you can be assured of goals with 3 attackers and an additional 2 wingers .
When taking corners target the near post either left or right they are hard to defend.
Any player around that point should be able to flick or head the ball inward from there
As usual give me 1 shot on target for ever 2 to 3 minutes and we should have a good game.
At defense like the umbrella we simply shrink up we completely collapse the middle the midfield who line behind each other tot convert defense into attack 2- 5- 2
the wingers become the ones in the front the attackers collapse into the middle and join defense.
With the Umbrella rebounds are assured as there is a lot of manpowr at attack gen gen pressing the defense are on their toes, and can afford to be countered.
What happens when the Umbrella takes on the Dragon Fly... hmm what will happen?
