I think when you play a high intensity pressing game it kinds becomes hard to bring that energy level down when you do get the ball, and then get it back up again when you lose it. The best teams can do that but we've only just started adopted this approach. Don't think our passing stats against Sp**s was all that great either but we allowed them the least no. of passes per defensive action in the whole season. Emery needs more time to work with this team, and with better players.Great performance without the ball not very good on the ball . We were much better on the ball v Sp**s and Liverpool . Not sure we could get away with that level of erratic possession against United .
Playing Mkhi and Iwobi would definitely alleviate that a bit .
