Loss against Vietnam despite having all the ball. Seems that "effective possession" has been forgotten. No ball playing midfielders and noone upfront to score goals.

Arzani should have been in this squad and then we would have seen "effective" possession.

Viewing a number of games across many leagues that have been brainwashed with the idea that incessantly passing across the back, with the odd foray forward to a wing, is just boring midless possession. I am serious when I say that I have seen centre backs on the ball three or four times as often as number 10's. Hello coaches... The idea is to work in forward in multiple ways in order to open up opposition defenses. Hell friggin lo. This country is failing to develop attacking players because attacking flair and desire to take players on or take it up the middle of the park, is coached right out of today's talent. Arzani has made it by bucking the systme, by constantly going agaainst coaches orders. I have seen the kid made to play centre back and pulled after 10 minutes becaue he dared to take people on. It's the system of coaching here which is killing creativity, flair, attacking skills and development. It's not the lack of players willing.

waduwino, 100%. When I start seeing constant passing back to the fullbacks or keeper I lose total interest in the game. When a team starts playing that way, they've got nothing to offer upfront and are basically playing the possession game. They won't score a goal by the stats will show 65% possession, woopidoo.

tarzan,
Yes it does. The ball can get up front to those forwards all game long and if they score it will be a penalty or an own goal. I'd put money on you scoring before they do.
