Yeah, that's just them stylistically though, they pass it around the back to death until the opposition losses patience and gets drawn out. Especially against United who play on the counter, you knew before the game they'd dominate possession. I was actually surprised United had as much of the ball as they did before the first goal.
Interestingly we seemed to have moved towards this style of play more this season vs being quite direct last year, especially away from home. It was notable how we killed the atmosphere at both Palace and Everton by hogging the ball.
