Hi Steve,

You should try to make an attack when the ball is long.  You do need to make sure that it is a good attack though.  See if you can look at the best place to put the ball.  You also need to think about the pace that you play the ball.  Faster is not always better.  Sometimes you can play slower and get a good result.
