Overseas american soccer is known for its physicality and directness. not a lot of tikataka passing like you will find in latin america and south western europe. Obviously these are generalizations but wycombe plays a very direct and physical style. They were 2nd to last or last in almost every possession statistic but their opponent last night (oxford utd) was 1st in almost every possession statistic but wycombe still won the match. Peter played club ball in baton rouge growing up, helped start the program at catholic high and played at georgetown so the american style is ingrained in him, which is why its so cool to see it implemented in his club now

Gotcha. I wouldn't call that "uniquely" American which is what tripped me up

This is brexit style football. Burnley plays it. Stop Americanizing the sport.
