It turned the game into a chaotic sprint, bhala, stripping away the beautiful, structured build-up we worked so hard to create. Now it's just long balls and hoping, with no real chess match between defence and attack. I know because on the field, you could see the intelligence drain away; my own role as a centre-half became less about reading the play and more about sheer, desperate recovery. It broke my heart a little, the same way my old harmonium's notes blur if the bellows work too fast.
