    Possesion stats are clearly bollox. wolves had over 70% “possession” v Sunderland on Saturday. Lot of good it did them. Also the stat that shows how much distance the players have run. You can run around like a lunatic for 90 mins, what does that prove?

    Apparently clubs completely disregard "Distance run" in favour of "Intense sprints per game"
