(IMG:http://tinypic.info/files/qhd668scb8dl1npyzckn.png) Torino FC vs. AC Milan (IMG:http://tinypic.info/files/8r7c9y3dqeb7ngh5x0dw.png)

After seeing Milan over the past month it seems every game is going to be a tough one for us. hopefully Pirlo's return will make us play better football. hopefully a different tactic will see us do better up front. hopefully...

Well not being productive as you want to call it could have cost us the points since Chievo came close to scoring twice in the second half.

I personally call it useless, sure we're keeping the ball in our possession but not trying to even do anything with it is asking for us to lose it and they somehow score on the counter.

and thats what makes this great game...opinions (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
i understand what your point is and in parts agree. But like i say i just can't agree that possession is useless we rely on constant passing of the football thats are game and possission is 9 tenths as they say. I'm a football purist and thats just my way i think the game should be played (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

I respect that but at some point you have to just say, stop that and actually play some football, I'm ok with possession that will eventually lead to something, but to see us passing it around in the midfield and sometimes even going back to the defence and when they pass themselves into a corner they just punt the ball up is imo, wasting time that could see us scoring a goal to kill the game.

Last week against Lecce I think if you add it up atleast 30 minutes of the match was wasted passing the ball arounf between the defence and midfield, and at this point we needed a goal. I even commented about it during the game, I would go through the thread to find it but I don't really feel like it ( (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) ) I voiced my frustrations at the fact that we were passing the ball around in the defence like we were winning 3-0 instead of still drawing.
