I agree, and I am a bit of a dinosaur for mentioning this probably, but I recently read the Watford Observer guy’s book on Graham Taylor and Elton John. Tayor pretty much adopted the FA Technical Director’s mantra at the time (can’t remember his name, Charles something- rightly much maligned for the most part) of recognising that scoring more goals meant getting the ball in the last third as much as possible.

Being good at keeping the ball is vital, but it needs to be part of a bigger and better plan. I’d say keeping it well at the back is basic good defending. Use it when in control, ahead and take time out of the game.
