Whilst I dont disagree that we could look after the ball better (with Matip and TTA are the most culpable), we play in a very direct manner. It's not quite route one, but it goes from A to B very quickly. The midfield's job is simple. To get the ball back as quickly as possible and get it to our attacking players as soon as possible.
City are a little bit more measured in their build up play.
