they play to their strenghts

put the ball into the box as much as possible, and sometimes it will end up on the striker's head with no defenders anywhere near the striker. Importantly don't criticise the player when the crosses & lobs are rubbish , or the striker who misses most of the crosses just encourage them to do more and more.

so, our players are not better or worse but different and they are playing at the top of their game.

I suspect if they were made to play like Norwich then we would have smashed them.

their game plan should have been beatable, cut out the crosses and mark the striker - their goal only happened because the defense switched off and gave sharp a free header

They also have a brilliant keeper who made 3 saves in 3 seconds -a top 6 team at home to bottom team and the goalie is man of the match doesn't say much about the rest of the team
