I think that we are pretty much on the same page.
When we are slowly going nowhere and someone tries to force a pass that isn't on we can get into a real mess.
Is it the players not being good enough or not understanding the system, the manager not being able to get the ideas across or teams knowing how to play against it? Or perhaps a bit of each?
With slow central midfielders and no Rodri to cover them and set the tempo Man City are now very open to fast counters. |

Agree that it's the same principle but for whatever reasons, a lot of the time it isn't achieving the objective because it is so slow and predictable.
Then it effectively becomes possession for possessions sake as we are not being constructive.
We may not have the quality of Rodger's team but to be effective I agree with both yourself and RichardO we have to move the ball quicker and be more aware of where the new point of attack needs to be. |

Was wondering if there was a double agent as well, or was that Martin's? |

The crowd could recognise what was happening.
“They clap, they square the pass, then you play a forward pass and it changes the point of attack. It is recognising the game and that feels good for the players. They do not see that as a negative, it is to start a new attack.”
When it's all about looking to switch the point of attack then there is a point to it. When it is passing it back without looking to switch the point of attack that is a different issue. |

Fair point but would we have the money to pay off Williams, pay a new manager the going rate, pay off his employer and sign new players? |

Agree and replacing a manager at this point in a transfer window isn't going to help bring in players that will improve the match day squad |

Would I lie to you?
Is it true or is it a lie? |

Interesting as it appears they are resigned to letting him go but trying to create a story so that if it goes to a tribunal Peterborough will get the best fee.
With his current injury I would be surprised if anyone went in now. But as you implied in another thread it's a funny old game saint. |
