Learn from mistakes and get it right.

Or…….learn to adapt and grow.
Ok explain the difference between the two sentances..
----------------------------------------------------------------------
To those willing to look, we do adapt. It's not all out attack all of the time, as some will assert.
The other factor is, we play a pressing game. This only works in compressed space. Dropping 5 or 10 yards either gives more space to the opposition and weakens our press (how Utd played was the perfect example last week) allowing us to be played through, OR gives the opposition more possession and space at the back. The latter is usually when we drop a lot more than 10, and we do this often. We don't just high press the entire time BUT we do and we have to maintain similar distances between the lines at all times otherwise the system fails and we turn into Man Utd with gaps everywhere and opposition running at us. We don't usually have them running through us and at us, it's usually beyond us. So it's a trade off.
If people want a defensive Plan B, a retreat and bus park Plan B then so be it. But they all moaned about Conte and Jose and now they want us to go defensive at 1-0...how has that panned out in the past?
I asked what a Plan B looks like because I don't think people understand that slight tweaks from A is not a different plan and you cannot pick and choose bits of A, it works or it doesn't. B would he very different, low block and counter attacking....that's not who we are mate and I still cannot figure out why folk have not realised it yet.
Adapt or die.
For those who can’t (refuse) to see, you will when we play the big teams/games when our opponent knows exactly what we’re going to do.
I can’t explain if any better so I’ll leave it there.
