The setup

Goal kick - Playing out diagram

Step by step

1
Only if this is on, the keeper can go short to the left back or right back.
2
Option one for the fallback is to go into the wide midfield player.
3
Option two for the fullback is to go straight into the front man's feet.
4
Option three for the fallback, if there's nothing on, is to clip it in behind the defenders and get them turned.
5
The front man could lay it back to the third man running, which would be a centre midfield player.
6
The centre midfield player should be able to see the whole pitch ahead of him and potentially spray it out wide to the left side.
