Should we keep playing this way? Will it pay off in the long run?

Well it's not really been paying off has it. What did Einstein say, madness is repeating the same thing over and over again and expecting different results....

but if you read the article our results have been worse as our pressing has been less.

Well, well,I have seen all Palace's home games this season and the Everton game on TV, but I never realised we played a pressing game.
"Pressing" seems to be in vogue and I would imagine you need to be super fit to last 90 minutes playing such a tactic.
It looked to me that we played more of a counter attacking game.Mind you I saw Wales v Serbia ,and Wales played a kind of pressing game,in which Joe Ledley played the best I have ever seen him play,he was in people's faces,tackling like a demon, and generally running around like a man possessed.If all the Palace players followed suit on Saturday they'd scare Man City to death.

Yes, if you want to play attacking football then you need to press.

It's probably because we're 2-0 down barely 20 minutes into most games. Hence the need to press.

What worries me is that we tried this with Holloway and it didn't work. Think we need to go back to basics and be a solid unit first and foremost. The way Burnley scored past us was embarrassing really. All their goals were gifts.

His legs went and he wasn't good enough for the PL anymore. Stop living in the past.

We still play Cabaye.

He hasn't been on the pitch at the end of a Palace win in the league since April.(Norwich).
Before that it must have been the game before Stoke last December.
