We need to see a little more guile and patience.Happy when we get the ball in quickly to have defenders turning struggling to get back into position fine but once a team is entrenched in their defensive formation a lot more movement is needed on and on the ball, we can't just start piling players forward leaving us short at the back susceptible to counter attacks. Players have to come off defenders and get ball into their feet in tight areas or the box a wall pass and movement can create that little bit of confusion and space for a shot from nearer the goal, as a midfielder Lampard and Gerrard played it so often, the former getting so many goals from the returned ball often ricocheted through a wall of defenders that left goalies flat footed you wouldn't need as much power in the shot nearer the goal so little backlift means you get the shot away quicker.
