We were in complete control until roncaglia man a stupid decision. Being 10 man down away from home is not ideal, for any team.
Basel had an irregular goal counted, their second goal came when we should have been setting up to take a free kick, we had a stone cold pk not given...
Dude chill. You need to be able to tolerate another opinion. I watched the game. The red card was stupid but Fiorentina is good enough to easily win with 10 men when up by two goals. You just gave up possession and let them keep the ball. The team I have seen this season can easily keep possession even when down. Finally, it's 7 points from 4 games. Not good enough to overtake England. If we had that fourth spot you would have been in CL this year.
This lineup should be able to defeat Belen. Let's hope we won't need to call upon Kalinic & co, need them for Sunday.
I feel like this match has been very well officiated but that tactical foul on Borja should have been a yellow.
There was a time when Rossi ruled those tight spaces and could make decisive passes to open up opposing backlines but he's spent so much time away from the game that I'm doubtful he'll regain that ability.
"In February the situation will be different and we’ll see what happens." He knows that EPL sides burn out after the grueling Christmas matches.
We've never lost to an English side in Italy. Only time I recall not advancing against an English side was ManU in the mid-90s.
