Yes, yes he can. He's shown on multiple occasions he can set us up to be harder to beat, most notably on tougher away fixtures in the CL. He often changes tactics season on season, or even mid season to adapt to players. He also can see when players aren't performing.
Pretending the best coach in the world can't do anything different is an insult.
The only things I've heard here are drop into a deep low block or play the kids. He's been tweaking the team constantly since the crisis, some out of necessity and some to try and squeeze space. But ultimately his football is based on dominating the ball and playing as close to the opposition goal as you can do.
 
I'm not defending the form, we look shite. Truly fucking shite. But Pep isn't going to change his style of play, and getting rid of Pep would be fucking madness. My point is if we sacrifice all the work we have done for a decade to drop in to a 4-4-2 (or whatever system people on here want) we simply won't dominate the league like we have done ever again. I'm just saying we need to take our medicine and back him.
No one is asking him to change the style permanently, what I'm asking for is get a bit more pragmatic and temporarily change the style for this current run.
 
Kovacic, Nunes, Doku, savinho, Phillips, Gvardiol.

There’s part of the issue not one has improved us. Before anyone says Gvardiol he’s not fit to lace Laporte’s boots
A list not including Walker, Lewis, and Gundogan, I can't take it seriously.
