    Force Counterattacks works when your opponent has the ball - to draw in their attacks and make them play higher up the pitch. If you have higher possession it can still be effective but probably just less often.

    Playing defensive and forcing counterattacks can actually produce higher possession where you wouldn't otherwise have it.

    Yeah I've noticed that happening.
