Perhaps, but Joe's had over a year to try and adapt. We knew about Pep coming in, and his preferred style of play at least a year ago. To think that an employee of the club wasn't aware of this even sooner is absolute naivety in the extreme. We as fans do not have a clearer picture than the club and it's employees, despite what we may think. We don't train and converse with these people day in day out. We merely pick up media snippets (most of which have very little foundation). Joe seems to have decided that he doesn't want to adapt - which he's quite entitled to do. However, if he has chosen to do things his way then he has to to be prepared to accept the consequences should it go tits up.
