They've just turned to the zone game after generations of the sweeper system.

I wonder if Hoddle will use the sweeper system and/or play.

Depth is also a principle of defence, and the sweeper system (or other arrangements) provides such.

Goals via the through ball are always hard to come by at the highest level because of the quality of defenders and the sweeper system.

It certainlt was not a sweeper system.

Grimsby frustrated Middlesbrough in the early stages with their sweeper system and repeated back passes to their goalkeeper.

Hoddle's pivotal role in Swindon's sweeper system stifled United's customary flowing football.

By the late 1980s, McDonald was playing as stopper in QPR's sweeper system.

My best attempt at a sweeper system:(I'd probably replace Walker with the guy who sweeps for Norwich.but I don't know his name!!)

Perhaps Wilko should consider alternating Rocky with strachan or Fairclough (assuming he keeps with the sweeper system) for Cup matches.

'We played a sweeper system up there to try and nullify Dean Saunders' pace and Dalian Atkinson's flick-ons, and it worked well for us,'Gunn said.

In an attempt to change the direction of the game, Kendall dispensed with the sweeper system he had experimented with - but it was Liverpool, inspired by John Barnes, who increased their command following the break.

I think we need the sweeper system, OR forget attacking using the full backs unless we are completely in control - and push Speed/Strach wider and have them running into space pulling the full backs wide, so giving wallace/deane more space to run into in the middle area.

At the 1990 World Cup, Pearce had a goal ruled out from a free kick during a group game against the Netherlands, but played well throughout the tournament, setting up a goal for David Platt in the quarter-finals and operating as a more attacking left back than normal as England deployed a sweeper system.
