Notice how they’ve had 5+ players attacking the opposition half whereas they hardly came out of their own half against us.

Parking the bus and utilising low blocks is how teams try to overcome heavy possession sides. It makes for a boring watch but a tighter game, often seen throughout La Liga matches. With the way Man City/Leicester play, the opposition's gaps are the most important thing to take advantage of. Once found, a set of play can be initiated swiftly and chances can be created.

Which is why Tottenham has a history of setting up like this against Man City, ensuring they don't allow gaps to be penetrated. The teams that are successful at this method need to have decisive finishers who are clinical because they will only get a few chances on the counter and need to make them work.

A couple of weeks ago I had the misfortune to see Neville making a guest appearance as a judge on " Dragons Den"
His dulcet tones appeared on a radio show the same night where he was the dj
He's outdoing Dion Dublin for appearing on shows where he knows sweet FA
 
Seeing the game and a whole lot of the thread - I swear some of you should watch our Estonian Premium League games this season :D It would be hilarious to see some of your's input of them :D
