According to a piece in Mail On Sunday sports pages possession in the 4 top leagues:
Soton 66.1%
Man C 65.5
Notts and Leicester C 62.3
Peterborough 62.2
Read into that whatever you want!!
Every other team mentioned got a lot closer to the top of its table than we got to ours. If anyone thought that good possession stats meant high table placings, then we're here to show that it ain't necessarily so.
Possession stats are meaningless
Manchester City boasted 74.3% possession in the first half, completing 349 passes (over three times as many as United) but only mustered three attempts and a single shot on target. Guardiola’s men notched just 0.15xG in the opening 45 minutes, while United registered 1.37xG.
