Force counter:The role of this commad need to be explained cause is not always clear to many
Basically it says to give up possession in order to have chances by countering fast the opposition. So is a
Tempo command.

Force counter OFF ( SLOW Tempo ) : This should be used when you want max possession , and it says to
your players ” once you get the ball , keep it “. they will play patiently till
they found space to exploit ( TIKI-TAKA)
Force counter ON ( HIGH Tempo ) : This should be used when you want you team to play more fast, they
will not waste time by keeping the ball and they will perform high
speed counters to reach oppo goal, and you will see more shots from
player than passes ( an example is Kloop Liverpool style of playing)

So i usually play short pass+ counter ON, is a balance between good poss% and good amount of chances, when i’m winning like 4-0 and want to
waste time last 20/30 mins i switch counter off .
