We did dominate regardless of the stats... we had far more chances and pegged Man Utd back for the majority of the match.. that after convinceingly beating Hamburg midweek whereas you boys struggled to beat Celtic!

so if stats reflected 35% possession in a game of football you would say have been dominant?

Possesion stat is almost useless though, a team could retain the ball at the back all day if they liked, ie it doesn't say where the possesion was, if you had a team full of David "backpass" Batty's who could only pass backwards you could have shit loads of possesion and not get anywher. Premier league teams don't even press the ball the the other teams half most of the time, for a start off.

a team can have 35% of the possension but worthless unless you score

PMSL

at the end of the day both Arsenal and Man Utd have had some poor results. Boro for us, Arsenal and Reading for Man Utd.

We should be doing a lot better if we're going to challenge Chelsea for the title imo.
