of under-the-hood, non-determinant but contributing subtlty that is a beautiful part of the Game.
But if your peeve is essentially that there is too much weight given to things like style of play, "attractiveness" of play, etc. that is not connected directly with scoring then I think you have a point. I have long called out certain schools within the Game for essentially glorifying possession in and for itself. Tiki Taka. Sometimes Spain and Barcelona is guilty of that. Almost possession for possession's sake.
