I'm not saying everyone should be Leeds, in fact I'm not sure anyone should do what Leeds are, but you've got Saints playing very decent football at the minute with a pretty average team talent wise. Leicester and we also play decent enough stuff and our teams aren't in the top 5 most talented. It can be done.

I just strongly disagree that the teams with the least talent can only survive playing poor anti-football.
West Ham aren’t being negative though, if you think they are then you’re watching a totally different game

The problem is they still have three DMs on the pitch. They're going for it because they have to but he hasn't put on actual attackers to take advantage of the pressure. Which is ultimately him being too cautious.
 
Wolves boss Nuno Espirito Santo tells BBC Sport: "Football is a physical game, a game of contact and referees taking the decisions and being fair but the referee is not good enough to whistle, Lee Mason is not good enough.

"The way he handles the game, it is about the major, crucial decisions, it is about how he handles the players, both teams are always arguing the decision. He must improve because the game requires good refereeing and good handling of the game so the players can perform.

"It is his job, he has to improve, he has to get better. When we saw the nomination, we did not understand it because he is a point of distraction. He worsens the flow of the game."
Fine incoming??

That makes no sense whatsoever. He had noble sitting on Jorginho, it worked because Chelsea couldn’t play and West Ham we’re the better team. Jorginho has since gone off and Noble has now dropped back

You’re confusing tactics with negativity. You want him to go after Chelsea and get torn apart, its just plain ridiculous

Well he's getting nothing out of a game where they had the better of play for a solid 40 minutes or so but didn't really create a concrete opportunity and for me this may not have been the case if he played Manuel Lanzini at #10, who by the way can probably follow Jorginho around, instead of Noble.

I just can't construe 80 minutes of Noble, Rice and Soucek as positive in any way.
