Changed against Chelsea too but the early goal ruined it and we reverted. This myth about him not changing tactics should've died the day we went to City and won 2-1.
Maybe he could do it more but we've seen a number of big games where he's changed things over the last few years, unfortunately it's had limited success vs the likes of Bayern but it's not very often that it's the formation which lets us down...either shit player performances or lack of defensive structure rather than the shape itself. Even if it doesn't work, he has definitely tried more different things in the last 3 seasons or so.
CBA with beating him with every stick known to man, he deserves enough shit without people ignoring certain things he does try and improve.
Who cares about any of those changes when they all came 3-9 months late?
No-one cares about him changing tactics when the league is already gone
Changes in CL too to give us a chance when we go to Bayern. Worked well once at least and whilst it wasn't all down to Kos...and in all likelihood we'd have lost anyway...the same tactic was applied this season.
He can change it when he knows we are the inferior team, unfortunately he doesn't think we are inferior as often as we are. He's no master tactician but I just don't think it's fair to say he never changes tactics anymore, the better criticism would be that his changes are indeed mis-timed or just not that successful anyway.
Maybe I'm giving him too much credit but don't you lot get bored of blaming him for the earth rotating?
