How many goals have west Brom given away by hoofing it. Any style of football played badly will result in defeats and loss of goals. Arsenal play the possession game badly and they get beaten as a result. Leeds play it well and overachieve and have done better than Burnley this year. Picking one team is a nonsense argument overall keeping the ball means you are more likely to win trophies and matches. Giving it away needlessly means you are less likely to win matches |

The tactics being advocated were outdated in 1995.

Ok Baldie you are talking in general terms , so what i think we would agree on is if you have better players, better manager & better tactics you will get better results , yes ?
Burnley have a a style of playing as they have poor players and maybe wrong tactics for a Premiership side , If Dyche started to play modern football with the players he has do you think his side would be in the top 7 club ? Play to your strenghts which is something that you can't grasp ?

I agree you should play to your strengths which is why I don’t think city would do well with long ball tactics even though they have brilliant players. I don’t think we have players to play long ball football at the moment. Nearly all of our players have been brought up with a view to keeping the ball. Very few of our players play in 442 direct football systems. I don’t think we have a good target man and poacher you need. I can’t think of one European cup winner that played the long ball game. Arsenal are probably the only English league winners who did it back in 89.

Big for me is the matches you watch that they have meaning I throw together a list of games worth watching over the weekend. This weekend
Friday 19.30 Wender Bremen vs RB Liepzig Pokal Semi Final Leipzig have never won a major tournament in a semi final versus Bremen who are in the relegation scrap Saturday 15.15 Elche vs Atletico Madrid La Liga Elche in the relegation zone tied on points with Real Valladolid and one behind Deportivo Alaves versus Atletico Madrid who have bottled the title but still top by two points PSG vs Lens Saturday 16.00 PSG fighting for the league title versus Lens in 5th one point clear of Marseille in the Europa League spot. Lens were only promoted last season Dortmund vs Holstein Kiel Pokal Semi Final Saturday 19.30 Dortmund looking for there first title since 2017 versus Kiel. Kiel haven't played in the First Division since the 1960s. Played in the 4th division in 2013 now look on track for promotion to Bundesliga but this is still a David vs Goliath clash. AC Milan vs Benevento Serie A Saturday 19.45 Milan were riding high for most of the season now find themselves 5th on goal difference in a season where European money is crucial. Benevento are 18th on goal difference tied with Cagliari and Torino. Inzaghi coaches Benevento and brought up from Serie B Real Valladolid vs Real Betis La Liga 13.00 Sunday Valladolid only outside relegation zone on goal difference versus Betis who have resurged this season under Pelligrini but without key man Fekir. Betis are in Europa League spots one point above Villarreal Napoli vs Cagliari Sunday 14.00 Napoli have been brilliant this season at times under Gattuso and Lorenzo Insigne unplayable at times. Only 5ft 3 100/1 shot for Euro 2020 Best player has been probably Serie A player of the season, Napoli are third tied points with Milan and Juve. Cagliari tied 18th with Benevento Monaco vs Lyon 20.00 Sunday 3rd vs 4th. Monaco two points off top and four points clear of Lyon. A real 6 pointer for Champions League football both play nice football as well, agin in the current climate champions league money is massive Honourable mentions World Snooker Final has full capacity which changes the event on its head and usually is interesting. Celtic Ranagers, Manchester United Liverpool, Valencia Barcelona, Juventus Udinese, Lille Nice, Fulham Chelsea, Besiktas Hatayspor, Real Madrid Osasuna, Sevilla Bilboa, League of Ireland
