Set-up

Full squad walks and jogs through the game plan for Monday. Coach talks through the press triggers, the defensive shape, the build-up pattern. Players in their match positions. Ball moves slowly — this is visualization at half pace. No defending unit; just the structure in motion.

Coaching points

  • This is the map in your head — we're just making sure everyone has the same one
  • Ask questions now if something is unclear — Monday is not the time
  • Know your first job when we have the ball AND when we don't

Progressions

  • Speed it up to match jog — same patterns, slightly more realistic
  • Coach calls scenarios: 'we're 1-0 up, last 10 minutes' or 'we're 0-0, middle of the park' — squad adjusts their shape mentality
