Most of our "possession" is us knocking it around on the half way line against teams who
sit off us such as Bulgaria.
The type of possession we need to have is in situations like the second half yesterday to take the sting out of the game. we had zero control of that game because we can't keep/move the ball well enough and control the tempo.
