We have a few players playing every game that aren't consistently good enough with their passing. We don't really pass the ball too much. I don't even know what that means come to think of it.
I agree, it's cute that the perception remains that we're capable of playing any sort of intricate football these days when in fact our passing dies a painful death as soon as the front three get involved. At this point I'd be very happy for the days of over elaborate passing because at least we'd be putting teams under pressure for 90 minutes.
You can see that every time we get schooled by teams that actually pass the ball.
The real problem is, like Tim says, we commit too many players forward which leaves gaps and, as soon as we lose the ball, the other team are in which a chance to score.
