Spot on. Get the ball down and PLAY, lads! When you do, we look half decent.
And even when we played the long ball, they were down the line in behind the defence, instead of the useless hopeful crud.
Yep. Sick and tired of seeing the ball end up at the feet of our centre halves or full backs (normally because we've been chased down with it) and we go from possession to 50/50 long balls down the middle that we rarely win. As you say, at least if you aim for the channels you have a chance.
