Football journalists be like:
“At the start of the season results are the priority. Performances don’t matter at this stage”
“During the hectic festive period results are the priority. Performances don’t matter at this stage”
“At the end of the season results are the priority. Performances don’t matter at this stage”
Fwiw I couldn’t give a f**k if my team play two passes all game as long as they win but it’s such an empty phase to continually roll out.
