THE SECRET OF FASTER FOOTBALL
SAYS WALTER PILKINGTON.
It was thought last season that football in England could not be played any faster. On the evidence of the opening" games of the new campaign, however, it appears to have achieved even greater speed. There is a certain illusion in this, like a conjuror's quickness of action, because the best teams are combining speed with anticipation and skill.
The players themselves are not faster, but the game can be if the ball is made to do the work. Many managers have been impressed by the technique of teams in European and other countries. They have noticed that the ball is rarely allowed to be still. It is kept moving with uncanny swiftness by flicks and pushes made with- out hesitation, the secret being positional play. There is always someone in open space to accept and transfer the instant pass.
the
Wanderers, two of
In recent years, Manchester United and Wolverhampton the most successful English League teams, have proflied greatly from this scientific, best progressive style of play. They may not have been quito as artistic as the European teams but they have been more effective because they have consistently shown superior finishing power and had better organised defences. These teams, at their best, could have been depended upon to master any rivals from abroad in three games out of four by their greater dash and determination in the vital arts of preventing goals and getting them.
