Good point. Mowbray's team played tiki-taka, which many Baggies disliked while other fans applauded. Not only does it allow you to probe for an opening in the opponents' defence, but it gives the back 4/5 a breather. Currently we breathe a sigh of relief when we manage to get the ball upfield; but it comes straight back because I don't think we practice passing during the week!
Mowbray should have stayed with us. He's failed everywhere else, but I'd have his style of 8 years ago any time.
I might agree with that! What does Ron Atkinson do these days!?!
