3🔍 Why it matters — what to watch for
A high press drains the legs, a low block gets pinned back. The mid-block balances economy and aggression: “fine to let them have it this far — bite once they step in.” Read the three line heights and the manager's intent shows.
Analysts say“A mid-block today — not chasing needlessly, luring them into midfield before pouncing.”
