Question Help - dismal possession

Playing a new game, still in pre-season friendly matches, with Rotherham. I played a month in 2 games to figure out the basics, but have not gone further with the game.

I have been mostly concerned with getting everyone's legs ready, so a lot of bench players are getting PT. Results have been mixed, having lost a friendly to Newton but beaten Barnsley.

The one thing that is common across all games is truly awful time of possession, under 40% against Wolves in a 3-1 thumping. I expect my playing style (4-4-2, two variants used, Defensive mentality, Quick tempo, Direct passing, low Creative) is not going to dominate the ball, but I would not expect the results to be this dramatic. More importantly, I don't know how to change styles to use the mediocre talent I have effectively - more possession oriented passing probably won't work - but I know the League will be grim if I play most matches in my own end.

Any suggestions
