It ought to, but it depends on how versatile your players are, the quality of the oppositi

on and their tactics. It's incremental - attack more, and you leave more space for the opposition in your half. Percentage football - it's what Hoots is playing. It got us a result against ManU for example. It can still come unstuck if there's a defensive error, but we haven't had too many of those (Sunderland and Wigan were exceptions).

I hate watching it, but it's a bit more bearable than Lambert's effort at parking the bus. And I would hate even more to get relegated because of a Villa-style 3-4 loss.
