We’re being a bit careless on the ball here.

Match thread so quiet.  Posting to test if it works

Quite happy for it to be deserted for the next ninety minutes and the most tedious 1-0 in history.

It isn't really, we play a high line on purpose, sometimes that will mean teams will get in behind and score but get flagged offside, it happens so often that all it really does is show that our gameplan is working.

Chelsea look a lot like us in the years we were finishing 10th-14th.

Play it into a midfielder who isn't really moving, pass to another midfielder who isn't really moving, pass forward to your best player who loses the ball.
