In this episode of The Huddle Breakdown, we dissect the "debacle" of a football match against Hearts, asking if Martin O'Neill’s new "Chaos Ball" tactics are destroying the team's identity. Alan reveals shocking data showing the lowest pass completion rate in 11 years and argues that the current style is turning Callum McGregor into a "terrier chasing a plastic bag." James and Alan also engage in a deep forensic debate over the Auston Trusty red card—using geometry and "The ZR Dog" to argue why the laws of the game are broken—before defending Arne Engels and previewing the Europa League clash with Utrecht.
