We won't get in play offs all the time we sit so deep in second half of games ,

I'll have a stab. Essentially you've answered your own question. They were the best English club back four, so could play a high line. They had such a brilliant understanding, forged over years and years of playing together, that catching players offside was their trademark. No teams play that way any more.

Ha! Didn't get this far down! I've just agreed in a more long-winded way... Well put

Answer this, be he first !! Tony Adams , Martin Keown , Lee Dixon and Winterburn ! They never sat deep , certainly were not quick but were best back four I've ever seen....

You've just answered your own question with itself.

"best back four I've ever seen"

Why don't we just pass it around the opposition and score every attack? Barcelona do it and they're the best attacking team I've ever seen.
