I haven't been able to get to grips with that as yet. It seemed to work for me with L2, but I'll certainly be giving L1 a go now and seeing if that's the case.

I always envisaged that it'd allow you to keep your defensive player facing the attacking one, but slow him down a touch in the "going forwards or backwards area" so that you could move him laterally really well along the defensive line whilst he faces forwards. If it's not the case, can it please be made to do that?
