Interesting article from Souness on how boring he sees this .
He quotes RM on saying he’s embarrassed to only be on five points but won’t change his police .
Possession stats mean nothing in reality.
Most impressive passing stats involve the ball passed in the defending third and shows most passing to be backwards or sideways .
It must be frustrating for a striker these days as they are not given the ball when they should .
We are so typical of this .
My opinion is that it is the primary reason so many home fans have walked . The fare is simply boring .
Fans want goals,excitement in front of goals . Endless sideways passing really is boring .
It’s time .

Totally off topic sorry but similarly, Chris Martin caught the tube to his own Coldplay concert in the O2 Arena. He was surrounded by Coldplay fans (all 2 of them😂😂) who didn’t recognise him. Laudable I suppose but still can’t stand the band. Sorry Max [Post edited 19 Dec 10:24]

We have never lost by more than one goal all season.

Losing is still losing. Nothing wrong with possession football BUT it has to be possession with a purpose, not passing for the sake of it.

Arsenal weren't mucking about on the edge of their own box, they were pressing high and put Palace under a lot of pressure.
