Thats The Thing, The Passing...

Sometimes when one of our players receives the ball now I swear he's going to put it to one side, get out a little folding chair and blanket and have a sit down whilst he reads his paper-then, after a few minutes he'll remember the ball is still there and that it is interrupoting his repose and boot it away somewhere, anywhere...

We're so casual in possession sometimes, its laboured and has no intent. Retain possession yes-but move the ball about quickly, short or long: want it, take a touch, move it. Its a bit too get it, have a little wander, panic, get rid at the moment.
