You're not being paranoid, we well and truly threw the baby out with the bath water and don't play anything like we used to, teams didn't work us out, we stopped playing as we used to and started overplaying
The only excuse you could offer up for what for me was an absolutely disastrous attempt at evolution, it that we had to play a certain way that took us away from how we played at our best throughout 20-21 because of the CB situation and we went very badly off track from there and lost sight of too many of the things we had dropped that used to make us the best team in world football
Last season should have been about re-establishing all the automation and incredible ability to be direct and on the counter we lost from 19-20 through having to play a certain way in 20-21 first and foremost, but that never happened, which to me was one of many major fuck ups
