We aren't playing any different to last season, it's just that the quality of teams we're facing is higher.
We aren’t playing even remotely a similar system to last season though, I wish we were! One full back in midfield, one high and wide. High pressing. It’s all gone completely

I’ve no doubt all our players are technically good with the ball at their feet. Unfortunately you need more than that in a team like Burnley.

I’m still VK in, I believe he will learn from this season and put it right with time.

We should have stuck to our in depth VK system, 4231 inverted full back, high press possession and overloading the wide areas.
