I can't be bothered writing a long post. But Emery has struggled in his career vs team with a low block, he's historically struggled vs Atletico, and this season the low block has become the defensive structure preferred by most of the league. We have struggled visibly to create chances against a low block, and I think it is due to Emery's tactics. But we can't create chances, instead play gets forced wide, then we recycle possession, over and over. His tactics work vs teams that press our back line and midfields, but right now teams are pressing our back line, only long enough for them to establish their defensive structure
