I agree with that, the only thing I'm not sure on is how our style translates to results

In the Champ, we were simply too good for teams to handle. The quality of our football was too much.

In the PL, although we will be better technically than a lot of the bottom half sides, the gap will be considerably less and they will have their strengths, be that pace and power, or counter attacking, or whatever it is.

The thing Im not sure of in my mind is whether Farke's total football style is capable of success in the PL on a budget. I totally see it when a team is the best in the division. Us last season, Man City in the PL etc.

I really hope it works because it's brilliant for NCFC. However, most sides that come up and stay up, particularly those on a tight budget, have a more pragmatic, direct style, which is based on high energy and just being really intense to play against. Dare I say it, like we were under Lambert.
