It’s not really saying much Nuneaton, nearly every Team in at least the Top two leagues if not more play out from the back now.
It’s just the latest modern style, nothing unique at all to City or us.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Missing the point. The term Nuneaton used was ‘obsession’. Every team looks to build from the back to an extent - but they will vary their approach and adapt to the situation. Eg - Leeds and Liverpool play a high intensity counter press quite effectively. They will build from the back but if pressed themselves, they have no problem switching the play and going long.
Some of liveroools best goals over the last few seasons have been from long plays from Trent and Robertson - they’ve even gone completely route 1 at times. Maresca yesterday was telling Doyle for attempting to do the same. The key difference with Kompany, Maresca and indeed Rodgers is the obsession with the short build up AT ALL TIMES.
This approach is painfully naive because when we push our full backs into midfield, teams can simply press Hermansen and if we lose the ball (or even if the CBs lose the ball) we’re screwed. So does every team that plays out from the back play like Leicester and Burnley? Heck no

Enzo threatened Hermandsen with being replaced by Stolarczyk if he stopped playing short balls.
