IMO, this is the premier league way, sideways, backwards, sideways. Probing. Continental style. Not the fast attacking English football we grew up on. Mason has been coached into this style, look at England under Southgate, took the lead against Italy, sat back, cost us the euro finals, roll on two years, World Cup against Croatia, took the lead, sat back, cost us the semi final, last year the same in the euros. We do not have the players with the skills and know how to be able to do this properly and be able to hold on.
I would rather we pushed home our advantages when we have them, all our wins have been by a single goal, sometimes a good goal difference makes a big difference. We do not seem able to take our chances, our shots to goals ratio doesn’t appear that great.
But the important thing is it’s three points, the league will be very tight this year. Only three points between third and twelfth.
Come on you baggies.
