With whiteman I don’t think the issue is forward passing he can do that it’s how long he takes on the ball. The sideways and backwards thing is played on a bit because with no players trying to create angles and demand the ball then what else can you do. However, whiteman wants the game played at a very slow pace and it kills all our momentum

He's not helped by the back 3 whose passing forces his first touch to be on the turn. Storey is particularly bad at this. I've lost count of the amount of times he passes to the RWB and the ball is behind them. Forces the WB to collect the ball facing his own goal and allows the opposition to close down quickly.
 
Bloke in front of me was raving about BW, he passes it so well on the floor. Yes he does, but it's mostly sideways and backwards, he needs to many touches on the ball so slows the game down so much.
As for his set pieces, floaty bloody corners, he seems unable to put his foot through the ball when shooting.
Saying all that, he was not the worst, JS beat him easy by giving the ball away so many times, good player when he does not have the ball!!!!
 
Been getting a free ride far too long, plays a few first time chip long balls into absolutely nobody every game and passes sideways and backwards for the rest of the game. Abysmal on set pieces, never drives with the ball into space, sick of watching him in front of a back 5. A back 5 with him and McCann leaves Dobson and Devine to do all the hard work

Just read his statement in the LEP, tell you what Ben , you and the rest of the sorry shite that played at Blackburn shove it where the sun don’t shine. We the fans have had years of this apologetic nonsense. Bloody sick to the back teeth of the shite you serve up. In future just keep your mouth shut cos we’ve heard it time and time again.

Are most of the segments on that chart not simply all the same things repeated?

Key passes, progressive passes, passes in to final third, forward passes, xT via Live passes, passes in opposition half...

is that 21% pass accuracy correct.

It's not 21% pass accuracy. It's his percentile rank for passing accuracy. So low passing accuracy compared to other central midfielders in the league.

Definitely some similarities.

Both points help to illustrate that he definitely doesn't just safely pass sideways and backwards, though.

right ok, getting somewhere.
so he tries to progress the ball, and mostly fails to do so

Which part of this image suggests that he fails to progress the ball?
