Our 'Unique' approach doesn't allow for that, it never has, we allow possession, time on the ball,don't get our midfielders in advanced positions, defenders don't step out. It's rigid, completely rigid, and if there was ever a style of play that thrives against our system, it's Swansea's, even though they aren't up to much.
We allowed that to happen yesterday, that's the biggest disappointment, played into their hands, and that's because we play a rigid, crappy, flat style of football that only sees our wingbacks as an advanced threat, Stop them and we are ****ed, we beat ourselves, because there are no other options or ideas.
