Now that's the example of a proper plan B, a slight adjustment.Perisic was the plan B, and it was a good plan B. I think he's the biggest loss playing against packed defences.
Keep playing the same way but hit a few deeper earlier crosses.
Not what people have been advocating and changing things.
And you are right, it didn't feel like he'd be a huge miss initially as we looked greaylt but I'd say our performances actually suffered as soon as him and Solomon got injured as we lost some unpredictability.
Teams have adapted to us but they wouldn't have been able to adapt to a tricky winger and a player that can whip crosses like Perisic and if they tried to our typical play would be able to flow again as they'd have to leave spaces
