I think its really hard to play an effective pressing game in the Prem

not like the Championship, because in the Prem players are good enough to pass around you if you don't do it correctly. It's not something you can just tell the players to do, but something that has to be worked on for many weeks in training. Because its counter productive if just a few players press properly and the rest don't.

Also, it's especially hard when you don't keep the ball well, and so are having to chase it back for the majority of the game. In the Champ we were dominating possession, so it was a lot easier to do a few high intensity bursts of pressing.
