Yeah, the strategy worked for the trophy. And there are compelling arguments to keep him aside from that (the injury crisis and the fact that until then we were 5th in the league, and the record with the full backline was 15-3-2).
On the other side, though, things were dreadful aside from Europa and a reasonable Carabao Cup run. I'm far from a master tactician, and could draw up the way we conceded a goal repeatedly. Surely, if some guy whose expertise is not this can see that the long ball to the back post for the open man is crushing us week in and week out, then our professional coaching staff should be able to sort that out.
