But did they continually look to pass it back to a Cody clone.U23's played 3 at the back, with 2 advanced wing-backs from the games I saw. Towards the end of the season they really showed how that system can be attacking and produce chances / goals. They played the ball out from the back quickly and the midfield was far more fluid than the 1st team. Found space out wide and in the box against teams who packed the defence. To be fair, they rarely played against sides who pressed high up the pitch and the central defence did sometimes get caught on the counter. Conceded some easy goals in games they otherwise dominated.
