ADVICE OFFERED TO ALL PLAYERS
OF THROUGH PASSES FOR CENTRE FORWARDS
ATTACK SHOULD BE AS VARIED AS POSSIBLE
Most leaders should believe in through passes as a tactical move of the game, duties of which fall vory naturally more upon a centre-forward or a contre-half than upon others by virtue of their playing in the central positions. Thus a centro- forward or a contre-half should be able to dis- tribute passes on both sides better than other members of the team.
A ball coming to a centre-forward from his right side, if passed back to the same side, would find the opposing defence fully alive to the situation, but if passed to the left side there is a possibility of finding the defence on this side not so alert. It may not be in- ferred, however, that a centre-forward or a centre-half should in- variably pass the ball received from the right to the left or vice Persu; it is up to him to decide the change under the circumstances.
Attarks should always be as varied In their nature as possible, and changing the gome is only one of the can be laldi variations. No rules
