I would say most elite level teams are playing a possession based style like us. However they have elite defenders to be able to play it although they also make the odd mistake. I get why we play it as it's the modern way forward but we need the players. Last season the crap defence wasn't really worked much as we were in the other half of the pitch most games yet they still conceeded a fair few.
