Episode Notes

Charlie Zazzera is joined by Aston Villa Women head coach Carla Ward and Leicester City Under-18 head coach Adam Barradell to discuss Middlesbrough’s shock defeat of Manchester United in the FA Cup and, as a related topic, coaching a mid-block.

The guests define exactly what is meant by a mid-block, explain why teams use it, and share their advice on how to coach a team to set up in a mid-block out of possession and, in possession, how to play against it.
