We played with a lot more pace, quick passing, and movement in 16-17 and 17-18 with our 4-2-3-1 with
speed demons like Mandzukic, Higuain, Khedira, Pjanic as core members of the starting XI.
It’s up to the coach to get his players to buy into his tactics and ideas, and to motivate them to sacrifice with intensity if that is what he wants to see on the pitch.
