that essentially discussed all the similarities between football and war.

To me the most important similarities are the need to impose your will on your opponent.

The idea of overpowering your opponent and breaking his will is very appealing.

You are better off if you can do that, but I like cunning and guile. I think an indirect approach instead of nose on nose is the way to go most of the time.

Power AND imagination.

It is not an either or proposal - but with our shortfalls, more cunning and guile might just be what it takes to move the ball, and I think JOK is better suited to adapt to something other than smash mouth football.
