Analysis

Only one team moves the ball faster than us - villa. But they do it less direct, meaning it’s typically a three-pass sequence, not a one pass. This means they’re more accurately finding players, playing on the break. Taking the Spurs game out of the equation, where we changed formation. Match that t...
