It's not change needed at the Etihad, it's evolution. BUT, the longer we leave it, the more that evolution will need to become a desperate revolution.
We need to go back to Cruyff's 4-3-3 basics, with a flat back four & rebuild our form & confidence from there. Aside from the first 30 minutes at Klanfield, no one has dominated & played us off the park for significant periods.
Regardless of injuries, we're honestly not that far off a return to form imo. HOWEVER, as you pointed out from the article, is Guardiola a man for turning, or REturning to the 4-3-3 from whence he came?
