We're not very good in possession at all.I agree, that pass Doug did just before the second summed it up.He gets the ball on the edge of the box, looks up to see Cash and makes it obvious he's going to pass towards him. Cash just stands and waits for the ball to come to him and Zinchenko just nips in and wins the free kick on edge of the box.Man. City just levels above, instant first time passing and players moving into the space where they know where the ball is going. Not just 100ms worth of talent but relentlessly drilled on the training pitch.Worth remembering that Leeds beat these when down to ten men themselves so not impossible I suppose. Thing is though they're the one team that are as well drilled as Man City and with a clearly defined style. I just can't see what our style is supposed to be these days.It doesn't help that Jack is out
