There's a similar puzzle with defending corners. If all 11 players defend, the attackers will leave one player on the half way line, giving the defenders a numerical advantage in their penalty area of 2. But if the defenders leave one forward on the half-way line, the team taking the corner will mark him with two players. Giving the defenders a numerical advantage of....2. Leave two on the half-way line and there'll be at least three of the 'attacking' team kept back to mark them. Leaving those defending the corner with a numerical advantage of....2.[/QUOTE]

totally agree exile. can,t see the point of getting everyone back especially the ones that can,t defend, seen a couple of times in the last 12 months where non defending players have got in the way of a defender and caused an opposition goal.
