Which makes me reflect actually.

All of this is conjecture, obviously before anybody says it. And I know that everything that I say on this is completely my own interpretation and just a little bit of curiosity.

It makes me wonder though, why the sudden change in football style to a point where we do not keep hold of the ball at all? After all, we came up using a style where we dominated 3/4 of the game, had a ridiculously high passing accuracy stat, and were very patient.

Maybe, there is something in those silly rumours (and I think they were silly) that said Farke was not fully controlling the dressing room. Maybe the players were foolishly acting against him, at their own cost. That would be ridiculous, but ridiculous things do happen. More likely, it was a case of lack of confidence among many of the players, but still they had clearly abandoned the template.

Why? At whose instigation?
