"What stats allow you to do is not take things at face value. The idea that I trust my eyes more than the stats, I just don't buy that because I've seen magicians pull rabbits out of hats and I know I just know that rabbit's not in there." - Billy Beane

Actually, I think you may be wrong there. There is a range of potential pitch sizes to my understanding and it does have a massive effect on the way teams play, even that few yards you suggested could be the difference. This gives a good explanation as to the potential issues surrounding pitch sizes:

The interview Richard Dunne done today in papers more or less says it's how Harry has sent them out away from home to be defensive said he hopes Saturday there allowed to attack
It's harrys tactics last season he deployed exact same strategy and after millwall Stopped our clean sheet streak we never won that many more away games this season away is a continuation of last season away be defensive, be compact and hopefully keep clean sheet so you get at least a point, catch them on break and take all three. That's the strategy awayComment

Excuses but I do agree with Del.I think it's more a case that the Manager for whatever reason goes into away games with a defeatist mentality which rubs off on the team and reflected in the way we've played and performed.
Rather than looking at the game and working out a plan of how we can hurt them and win the game, he is clearly focused on trying to negate their stengths and prevent them scoring in the hope we dont lose and as such maybe nick a point.... this is the Premier League FFS, where most teams, including us, on their day have the tools to beat anyone ,but that wont happen unless you go into the game trying to win it!!Comment
