This beautiful passing game I keep hearing about. Is that the one when we stroke the ball from left to right then back again( or vice versa ) several times deep in our own half, while the opposition waits patiently for us to mount an attack, that due to certain players being bereft of ideas at the business end will ultimately end in nothing !!
That’s only because, as you point out, we aren’t very good at it. I saw the alternative at times last night whereby we hoof the ball long and it runs straight out of play for a corner or goal-kick.
Equally unproductive but easy on the neck muscles watching it. conversely, it must be better for the pitch
