In the absence of a midfield that can move the ball well and penetrate…

Oh er missus, the opposition lines, a possession based team won’t appear to be attacking.

It will look passive, like a farke side on a bad day in his first season.

To be attacking and possession based, you need some magic tactics (Ipswich?) or a star player (buendia / Maddison?).

Think we’ll be relying on the former. So if he’s not a tactical mastermind, we could be in trouble.

Massive summer for knapper coming up too, he’s got to give Thorup a squad that suits the system, or Charles’ premonition will be reality come November.
