Got to agree with this, there's very little real flair....what opens up teams is when someone takes players one and dribbles past them, we just pass in front of a wall of players...it's pointless.

Perfect example was the Torres goal yesterday and with Hazard playing that lovely flick. Ironically we use to play like this before we adopting this boring pass pass football.
