Some good comments there Tyldesley.
I think the general grass roots level in Spain though, ushers through more technically gifted players and although Bilbao might have had a more physical approach in the past, i bet the quality of player was still more technically astute than what English football has coming through.
Granted, we could definitely be more intense in our game play but man for man we could only dream of having the same ability in depth as they do.
Even if we train our youngsters to play like this, they will get poached eventually.
It would be interesting though to show our players the video of last night’s game and show how the system is expected to work and what is expected of them.
