30% possession today... on 20:41 - Dec 2 with 5845 views | poppiesman | Spurs best 5 wins this season have come in the 5 games where they have had their less possession. Proving that the possession stat is the biggest load of b******s going. | | | |

Closing down and pressing on the halfway line forced them sideways and backwards a lot making their possession ineffective, this was a part of the tactics that really worked for us. | | | |

30% possession today... on 02:50 - Dec 3 with 5379 views | harlingblue | Just a job for a stats person who doesn't really watch or understand the game. It is what you do with the ball in your style of play, either passing or shooting. | | | |

Precisely. A sloppy and open team will probably have higher possession stats than a team who play high press thoroughly and consistently. | | | |

I don't think it proves anything of the sort to be honest. Man City have won nearly every game this season and had the highest percentage of possession in each of them. I think it shows there is more than one way to win a football match and more importantly its what you do with your possession that counts, particularly at Championship level. | | | |

Leicester won The Premier League on those exact tactics. | | | |
30% possession today... on 11:03 - Dec 3 with 5109 views | longtimefan | I think it also shows what happens when the manager’s philosophy is too work everything from the back and the players really aren’t good enough to make it work consistently. How many goals would we concede through mistakes in procession if we tried to play like that? Think yesterday’s game also showed you really don’t get the best from Murphy if you operate a slow build up and don’t get the ball forward early. | | | |
