I totally get setting up like against city or arsenal but to do it against Fulham seems so negative and if you give a goal away you’re then relying on a snatched 94th min equaliser to salvage something .
Feels like you’re just creating problems for yourself , he doesn’t need to be adventurous free flowing but they aren’t binary choices . Just maybe not completely surrendering the ball .
He set us up like that against Doncaster in the cup.
It’s the only way he knows how to play footy.
