Strengths
Structure without the ball
Distances between units stay short for long periods.
Restart value
Set pieces are a genuine, repeatable source of goals.
Considerations
Chance creation
Open-play volume is limited when the team has to lead a game.
Pressure absorption
Long spells defending increase the chance of a late concession.
