I think he will play less of a high line with us and adjust with the personnel a bit better.
He will have learnt that from his time at Chelsea
Problem with this is the high line is a HUGE part of his tactic, high line means less space for the opposition to knock it about in also means more pressure when the opposition has the ball. You are correct in that this was hugely his mistake at Chelsea, in Portugal I would say the teams try to play better football and keep the ball on the deck so wouldnt have been as exsposed, in the PL its much different with a lot of teams opting for a long ball from the off (liverpool anyone ). As the article staes we do have better much faster CBs in Kaboul, Chalker and hopefully Verts, will certainly be intresting to see how we line up.
If AVB is tatcially as good as they say he is he will be fit to adap.
