Rubbish ,so you think when players play keep ball or pig in the middle at half time is not a skill and a waste of time. What exactly do you suggest we should have done in the last 8 minutes. I know you have an obsession with pace but not everything n the game is built around pace ,passing close control and ability to hold on to a ball are far more about football than tactics and running fast.
I think that you have misjudged what 'holding onto a ball' actually means.
Ask Clough next time you see him.
