The second exercise worked transition defense after United lost the ball in advanced positions — fullbacks and midfield committed forward, the moment of turnover immediately punished by the simulated Chelsea looking for Palmer centrally or Mudryk on the outside.
On the first rep, United lost it near the box and the simulated Palmer tried to receive on the turn.
Demien had already dropped into position behind the attack.
「TRAIT ACTIVATED」 「Ball Winner」
He stepped across the pass before Palmer could turn with it.
「Transition Recoveries: 1/5」
United attacked again immediately without resetting through the goalkeeper.
On another repetition, the reserves escaped toward the flank before he could reach the ball carrier. He didn't chase blindly. He dropped through the middle instead, cut off the pass back to Palmer, and gave the recovering fullback time to get across.
