I can kinda see what they mean....

But I don’t agree with them.

Our style is patience and possession with a view to controlling the ball and controlling the game. It’s not hell for leather intensity.

If you think back to Nigel Worthington’s Norwich side, there was a real intensity to our play at home, we were often 2-0 up inside 20 mins. I think that’s what they mean.

At points, I think we are a bit too cautious - I think the midfield are at points guilty of being a bit too safe rather than going for that killer ball. But that’s because Farke values keeping possession so highly - if we were a counter attacking Lambert style side, we’d go forward at every possible opportunity and would not worry about possession.
