They soon picked up our "plan" (CM drop in to a back 3 and FBs push on) and how easy it was to defend against by blocking/pressing correctly.
That does appear to be Wagner's one tweak to our tactics. Works a bit better when Núñez is the CM and Kenny alongside him at CB but when Kenny is the CM everything has to go through him and it's all so very predictable. We usually end up hoofing it and losing the header.
