Possession without penetration is just passing for passing sake, but show me the xG stats first before I write off the whole philosophy. My *susegad* Saturday afternoons at the stadium tell me results speak louder than ball-hogging.
Possession is nice for the gram, saiba, but my granddad used to say: the ball in the net is what fills the belly. All that tiki-taka with no finish? Like frying chicken without masala — looks pretty, but what to do? ❤️
