Today’s Football - 2024/25 Season

What is this playing out from the back rubbish that's afflicted the Premier League?!

Spanish managers, it's the style here. I think generally the better football is played down here, but the problem is even [Poor language removed] teams like Southampton, Burnley do it now, and look nowhere league competitive.

I'd be absolutely fuming if I was one of their fans.

Yeah, trying to do it if you’re not a top half premier league team is suicidal, so it’s not a surprise that these crap teams keep getting mulched when they try it

It's what I call it's one of the main task of a manager to make your team playing a style that gets a good output of results given the circumstances you work in and suits the team. I hate Dycheball, but I don't want the other extreme either, if you don't have to he players to play that style, see Russell Martin.

Then I see Burnley Kompany that played very good football having the best team in the league got 100p in the championship to finish with 24p in the next season not adapting to a league where you have the 3rd worst team.

What is it worth then?

I think you can play possession football and still be defensively solid. Brighton under potter for example
