Thank you, you kinda helped prove my point. Even super offensive teams like City with Pep at the helm, who usually deploy midfielders as CBs, are winning lots of games with clean sheets. Its a bi-product of great football, where you are somewhat solid defensively, and lethal offensively...

Something is off with your math mate :D A guaranteed clean sheet compared to what? Compared to conceding 2 goals? If so, then that should be equal to the alternative of "2 goals scored" obviously. A goal not conceded is worth a goal scored obviously.

Oh we moving the goal posts again now. Noone is arguing against a properly working defense. But you and a few others are arguing for spending most of our energy on the meta-goal of keeping clean sheets. If our sole goal for the rest of 2021 is to not concede any goals, then it would be very...

Take a deep breath and read the messages, then I think you will understand my point. If not, then thats also fine.

:lol: both of you still dont see how ridiculous it is just to say "if we had a clean sheet we would have won these games". As if it doesnt come at a cost of something else. If we can just pick what we want, then Id just pick 3 points in every game by default. Then we dont even have to bother...

So how do we enable this free "clean sheet"-cheat that only Juve can apply? Do we sacrifice Berna on a fire or what is the process? If it comes without any costs then we'd be stupid not to take it.

What is the trophy called? 3 points are 3 points, its all about winning, isnt it. If we spend all our energy on keeping a clean sheet and start over-optimizing on defending corners or preventing other random shit from happening, thats a waste of energy. And what can we gain? A clean sheet only...

What is this obsession with a freaking clean sheet? Our team has been shitting the bed for years now, we cant really rely on that. Had our performance today been absolutely amazing had Rebic's header hit the post and gone out instead? Would that have made everything fantastic and instead of a...

So whats your point? We must spend less energy on attack (as we believe we will still manage to score 1 goal as if thats a given) and then use more energy on defense? Even if that entails less threat to the opponent and inviting them to bombard us for 90 minutes? Is that the obvious solution...

We played 352 most of the game which often looked more like a 5-3-2. Danilo, Chiellini and Bonucci all doing the job that should be done by 2 CBs, and Sandro and Cuads playing as backs in large portions of the game. Thats been one of our biggest issues, we have weak and insecure players, and...
