I found the thread where this was discussed, ten years ago exactly. AgaMonkey was the one who explained the above to me:
Breaking the lines = passing forwards
My son has decided he's a striker. I've had to explain what "boglining" means because there's no other explanation for his positioning.A ‘double pivot’ helps ‘play through the thirds’
My niece’s son has started playing for a team, he’s eight. I asked him what position he plays and he said “false number 9”…..
Wow…well remembered Bergen Blade! I’d forgotten all about that.I found the thread where this was discussed, ten years ago exactly. AgaMonkey was the one who explained the above to me:
Squad numbers
Adrian Heath messed with my squad number OCD when he gave Shaun Murphy number 7. His first mistake of many. One repeated by serial mistake-maker Bryan Robson in giving Beattie the number 6.www.s24su.com
It was either 4-2-4 which was popular in the 1970s or Ramsey's wingless 4-3-3.Wow…well remembered Bergen! I’dMy dad was a 2-3-5 man…he couldn’t get his head round the new fangled 4-4-2 at all
When I first started supporting Dem Blades our centre backs were Flynn (4) and Colquhoun (5) and then Trevor Hockey was no 6.
I remember Man Citeh at the time whose centre backs were Tommy Booth (5) and Alan Oakes (6) and their midfield destroyer was Mike Doyle (4)
These days you’re most likely to find me enthused by Tiago Motta’s 2-7-2 but that’s another story altogether
Don't forget high press, i.e. getting stuck in.
'Recycle the ball' really pisses me off

My dad was a 2-3-5 man…he couldn’t get his head round the new fangled 4-4-2 at all
When I first started supporting Dem Blades our centre backs were Flynn (4) and Colquhoun (5) and then Trevor Hockey, our midfield terrier, was no 6.
I remember Man Citeh at the time whose centre backs were Tommy Booth (5) and Alan Oakes (6) and their midfield destroyer was Mike Doyle (4) Flynn was right footed, Oakes was left footed.
The numbers weren’t always fixed. Teams often did mix them up just because they could and if confused the opposition well, that was a good thing.
No 7 was usually the right winger and no 11 the left winger. Our left winger was usually Geoff Salmons (no8) and Gil Reece the second striker was 11. Alan Woodward our no 7 was notionally a right winger but he was much much more than that…
It’s complicated.

Michelle is looking old and manly.
104 goals conceded - clearly we didn't.

Ok while we're at it, what's a telegraphed ball?
No one said he was any good!
Clearly, you never saw Paul Thirlwell play.
Could someone answer this followed by a "slide rule pass"
If he could finish I might tolerate it. As it is…Good lad. Clearly understands POMO better than his dad.
They aren’t the same thing.
A pass perfectly weighted between 2 defenders to meet the run of a team mate would my stab at that one.
Moving between attack and defence. Particularly relevant when players have more fluid positions, for example Alexander-Arnold at Liverpool moving between right back and central midfield.
Old reference to the pre-calculator days. It's a pass so exact it had to be measured perfectly. I'm pretty sure my mum still has a slide rule in the loft somewhere from her teaching days.
Thanks bud
Bog lining in South West Sheffield’s leafy suburbs (in the 80’s) where the sun always shines and course language was frowned upon in case a lady was present.
would've looked a right prat if he'd fallen by the wayside but that's exactly what I've been saying about him.
