The thing is for this you need to have high quality attacking players as you are giving the opposition time to get behind the ball and regain there shape.If he wants to play slow build up, high posession football, then the squad needs a major overhaul
At least when you get it forward a bit quicker you give your attacking players a bit more space on the ball, which our forward players need as they aren't very good. Not long ball but just working the ball into the strikers feet or down the flanks faster than we are at the moment.
