We still play like garbage. We are still lucky teams in Italy don't know how to punish a low block. I don't think Conte will succeed with his vision if this 523 is the way. We brought in players to build a top team, not a team that can barely compete in Europe, and get lucky 1 goal wins in the league. Today Juve were utter garbage and lost almost every ball, they are clealy not gelled. What did we do? Destroy them for 5 minutes only to park the bus and let them back in the game.
My brother in Christ Conte is from the school of win by any means. I don’t care how we look as long as we win
Juve has played 20 competitive matches this season with substantially this roster, and another handful just before that at the club cup. Most of their transfers came before August. I don't think a lack of time together is their issue. Winning by one goal is fine. Only getting one point or none when we spent part of the game up a goal is not. If we had a single striker who was always good for one goal, and a defense that never gave one up, I would shake my head at the ugliness on the field with that 9-0-1 formula but I'd still celebrate a fifth championship.
I can’t believe when this team is losing everyone comes on here bashes and wants conte kicked out the club. when we get results and positive changes are being made nobody celebrates. we can’t be negative on this team all the time guys…
Some fans were booing at our team at 1-0. It looked like the team was asked to play in 1st gear after we went 1-0 up. When Yildiz scored you could clearly hear booing towards our players. Luckily McKenny gave us a goal. Juve did not show up at all. A real beating was there for the taking, but instead Conte makes it interesting by limiting our team. Imagine if it ended 1-1, against this juve side?
I am happy with the team at the moment. Just busy, coincidentally. But still, I just had to express myself before, as the excuses marathon was too worrisome. As you can see, even with more injuries, we can get results, so does that not mean we were completely right? Think about it, even with fewer injuries, we played like anyone, literally even Slovan fckng Bratislav, could have easily beaten us. And Conte? Good game, Neres will be ready in a parallel universe, Lang, who that nga? He needs to masturbate me 27 times before he can even see the pitch, haaaa. Conte was simply bad, took it out on players, and took zero responsibility.
Hh, you got me into that position where one thinks of a myriad of possibilities, each less likely than the one before, yet fails to see the obvious connection.
Considering that this season, we have faced both an injury crisis and our manager's apparent inexperience when it comes to CHL games, we still can remain optimistic. If Conte manages to get ahead in the league, we can concentrate on defending the title this year, and perhaps trying to get the hang of playing the CHL alongside Serie A next season. This round, Milan and Napoli face more or less the same opposition. There will be the same kind of pressure on both teams, and both sides have had more than enough time to gather energy and analyse their opponents. However, there still is a chance we will get the hang of playing the CHL this year, since we should still be able to reach the playoffs, and perhaps use the playoff games as a ladder to gain more experience. Furthermore, the roster will hopefully expand rather than diminish even more, and chances are Conte will not mismanage the games this time, but rather get the best out of every team member. I would personally be bold enough to aim for 3 points against Copenhagen, and 1 point against Chelsea at home. Considering our performances in the CHL, it is optimistic, I know. But we do have more than 30 days to prepare for the game with Copenhagen. More importantly, as nobody really needs 30 days to just prepare for a game, we should be able to count on both Lobotka and Lukaku for the game. This is the greatest advantage, as I must say Lobotka is an important chess piece when it comes to managing games/results, and so far Hojlund can hardly be considered a satisfactory substitute for Romelu. The significant factor will be how ready Lukaku can be when we need him so much, so fast, but knowing him, I am calm. I am more worried about Conte not using him to show the whole world that we are lacking everywhere, rather than use what he has to show them an honest fight.
Blatant yellow card for lang being brought down (kicked down) which was 100% a technical foul and dirty play - no yellow given because "too early". Fuk i hate this league.
Good grief the steam is starting to look like old episodes of Soccer made in Germany. Did the NFL just start?
