I really hope you're right. My instinct tells me you've got to have some muscle for when the fancy football gets a bit fragile.
Maybe that's because we've not fully got the style down yet Danny wants. Once we're passing more accurately and faster then we should hopefully limit that from being able to happen.
When we hit our passing stride the opposition won't know where the ball is let alone be able to kick us to get it. Stop whittling.
Some of the best footballing sides have physicality to their game. Roy Keane at Man Utd? Sourness at Liverpool.
