The championship is the very worst place to play a low tempo possession based game
and a low tempo possession based style is the very worst tactic if you want to compete in this league. It's not possible to combine it with being compact so you end up being wide open at the back. Unless you have world class players it's a disaster.
Zola tried it with Brum last year. This is turning into a re-run of that car crash.
It's not Farke's fault - he came in and was very clear that is his style. I blame Webber. He sought Farke out quite deliberately as the man and the style he wanted.
Maybe we can tighten up with different personnel but frankly I think Farke has to undergo a total transformation of approach. He may be able to do it but the patience we've been told we must show will need to be redoubled.
