Pep decided after 18/19 and the constant counter attacks we were facing that the name of the game would be control. He achieved that with a false 9 tactic which over the last two years produced phenomenal football and 2 premier leagues that we should all be grateful of.
The truth is that it is pretty obvious this year that the introduction of haaland has meant the spare man we had for build up is now firmly in the box and running in behind. The team aren’t used to this and it has changed the team dynamic. It is going to take time. It may require new personnel also. The truth is there is no better manager than pep to evolve the team again! I get it may be boring atm but even if we win nothing this year it’s hardly grounds for huge protest after the success in recent years and I’m confident that whatever needs correcting to thrive with the best no.9 in the world pep will be able to achieve.
