Tactical Identity
4-2-3-1Mid BlockAlt: 4-4-2In poss: 4-2-3-1 — two DMs hold deep, direct vertical passes to striker, wingers stretch wide to create space, simple and direct build-up with limited riskOut of poss: 5-4-1 low block — back five defends deep, midfield four narrow and compact, survival-first — concede territory and defend on edge of own box

Compact, physical, direct. Parker's organized defensive block. Limited quality at PL level — fighting relegation. James Trafford sold to Man City reduced GK depth.

Parker's survival instincts. Physically strong, set-piece reliant. Limited technical quality at PL level but hard to break down. Identical approach to their previous PL stint. Need January reinforcements to stay up.
