Vital 1st Team Regular
It seems to me that the philosophy of the manager creates the mentality of the players.
Watching WBA play Utd away they suddenly looked like a football team playing under a manager who has freed them up from over complicated systems and micro management and allowed them to play within a simple system. Same players, 3 different managers, 3 different philosophies.
I don’t pretend to understand Poch’s philosophy, but I think it is fair to say that it must be very complicated if a top-level experienced international footballers need several months tuition before being deemed ready to play in the team.
I don’t want to see him go but I do want to see him evolve his philosophy into something simpler and more attack minded that Will unleash the goal-scoring talent we have. To be fair we are joint 3rd highest scorers so far, on a level with, believe it or not, Arsenal with 66 goals. Pool have 80 and City 98. Maybe Poch could learn something from both teams above us.
