With the Ward-Prowse free kicks I am afraid that we won't tackle outside our box, but instead lunge out when they get in the box and thus increase the probability of conceding penalties. Perhaps raise the defensive line a bit? Or play 4 at the back with a tighter midfield.
Im getting a bit annoyed with the pack analogy, cause it is used solely to promote the club as a brand. Players and staff clearly has been told to use the phrase as often as possible. There is no cohesion in this team now that would warrant a pack description. And the body language of players...
