A defensive mindset that leads to victory isnt as expensive as a total free flowing beautiful yadda yadda
Look at Leicester
A tactical simple yet efficient game can be played with role-players
Well he never managed to successfully do it at United, why would he do it here. The maximum we could possibly achieve short-term with Jose is 3rd at best. And as the seasons progress the players get bored.
Leicester was a once off, there was no City and Liverpool get 90+ points back then.
Further more defensive football leads to short-terms results but long term gets stale very quickly and even more so if it doesn't involve winning titles. There's a reason why Jose's reigns end in tears because the players get sick of the win at all costs/us against the world stuff that he forces his players to be part of. The players get bored his tactics stop being as effective and it'll end in tears, tho for Jose it usually comes with a nice compensation package.
Modern footballers more than any time in history simply don't want to be playing negative football. Most look at what Liverpool are doing, look at what City are doing and they'll envy that if their team is going for the pragmatic approach.
