as is the norm, doesn't make him tactical astute, whenever he's expected to take the initiative it falls apart. That's why these teams have to scrap in mid-table most seasons because they have to play 19 home games against it too. The top teams are in a rut but they find ways through it in the majority of games, we've just dropped off a few levels and gone down the wrong path tactically, it doesn't mean we all have to camp on our own penalty area from now on, tactics have phases when they're particularly effective and someone unpicks it and people rush to that tactic. It was the same when Hodgson unpicked Mancini in 11/12, same when Simeone did over Real & Barca, same when the likes of Laudrup and Monk tried to imitate Pep and then teams have started to try the Klopp press, gone back to being more direct and when playing top teams gone to anti-Pep to compensate, at some point someone will bring a tweak in and it will work really well and there'll be imitations of that. Same with the 3 at the back that was a fad after Conte and is now brought back in this year to counter the big teams.Almost all of the teams in PL are playing that way away games.
