That's why Reyna was in the holding MF position, but his long passes tended to be toward wide areas forward. If you watched what Man City try to do against pressure is that they try to find that lane to advance through the middle, rather than out wide. The ball over the top out wide is saved as a last resort, for somebody like Jeremy Doku to run onto. [/QUOTE]
