Our style was suited to being flat track bullies
We were impossible to s**thouse because of the creativity buendia and the finishing of pukki.
Our style was less robust and translates less well to being a struggling PL side.
Absent buendia, we lost the thing that made us good at what we did and it’s far too much of a transition. You need to come into the PL with energy and momentum, we did not and there’s no coming back.
