Blaming the style of play is wide of the mark.
If it’s merely a case of attacking teams more why have we had 21 years outside the top league?
Why didn’t the other managers realise that all you need to do is attack teams and the results follow?
How did Sabri achieve our 4th best finish in those 21 years?
Why haven’t the other managers, who presumably played the ‘correct’ style of football done as well as Sabri?
It isn’t that simple.
The ‘style of play’ is one of those excuses which fans use to justify wanting rid of a manager.
Sabri - too defensive
MoN - too hoofball and outdated
Karanka - too much boring possession
Warburton - too gung ho and naive
Etc etc
None of them were sacked because of their style of play. Results are everything.
If Sabri is replaced it will be because of results, not style of play.
