Foul throws, regular misplaced passes under no pressure, a goalkeeper that couldn’t come for crosses or catch the ball, a player going down for a head injury after meeting a cross with his forehead, a referee who then doesn’t know the laws of the game giving it to the other team. Hard to...

Please just stick on Thuram to offer a bit of protection to the back line who all seem to be having a stinker. We can’t stop giving the ball away in dangerous positions and then they are slowly ambling back.

With McKennie at LB I would’ve felt more comfortable with Thuram there if he’s available but Motta probably feels like he stumbled on something from the coppa game.

This made me check what actually happened to Alcaraz, turns out he was sold to Flamengo for €18 mill.

He often seems to struggle more when he has time to think about what he’s going to do in front of goal as opposed to the chances that require an instinctive finish that he doesn’t have to think about. With his one on ones, much like his penalties these days, he waits for the keeper to make the...

Of course I hope we win in every game we play, but just saying with our minuscule squad, a reduction in our fixture list with a minimal financial penalty, would be a blessing.

No, thus far he’s shown he can cut in on his left to cross or shoot, go to the byline and use his other foot if required, run directly at an opponent like the Leipzig game and in yesterday’s game showed an ability to attract two players, realise nothing was on and went back to Savona which...

I know all that counts is the ball going in, but he did head it straight at the keeper from 4 yards out with the goal gaping. His touch was better today and he held the ball well at times when isolated. Should be a minimum expectation but occasionally he fails to do the basics.

Great to see that no matter which generation of players we have out there, we may be able to put together a backs to wall, grinta type of performance that runs in the DNA of the club. Also, praise to Motta for a strong defensive plan that adapted in the second half by practically having the...

So many imprecise passes when we finally have an opening combined with a combination of players at the back scared of playing a vertical pass in fear of a counter attack. Leads to sideways and backwards football and we haven’t got the players to keep up this chasing of the ball for a full 90.

He was 3rd choice LB in a fairly small squad to begin with, seems the expectations were clearly set too high. You can only hide below average players in a strong settled group, which we are far away from. Not expecting anything other than a CB in January, so this guy will unfortunately be back...

Similar to Miretti in that he often finds himself in good positions but then doesn’t have the technical ability or composure to do anything meaningful with it.

This wonderful team can play beautiful sterile possession football, but when it became necessary to do it to kill the game, they suddenly forgot how to do it.

Look at Danilo running away on the goal at the end. Can’t go a game without a brain fart.

We take it. Thank fuck the goal was ruled out, was a foul but our luck is normally shit. Didn’t look like scoring without a striker ever appearing the box. All players in the team did bust a gut to sprint back every time they broke, much like the Milan game so that is a positive.

Would take a cagey 0-0, with no injuries and the game not getting stretched.

I can only imagine they intended to say 14 outfield players. So discluding the 3 keepers and McKennie who is now out, they may have got to that number.

Had 0-0 from the minute the line up was announced.

We have 5 outfield players on the bench, as shit as Verona are they had 13. New manager, new director of sport, same Jj - filled with overpaid physically and mentally fragile people. 0-0.
