I'd argue we don't have any identifiable style anymore. We used to be possession based, then we added some long balls, now we're slow possession and sloppy long to a target man who isn't.

You can see how the injuries and squad depth have so broken any hope of consistency, and how Maynard just doesn't have the experience to cope, so there are reasons. But ultimately we're a mess stylistically, and the squad lack the minerals and grit to impose our will otherwise.
