The truth being that Galata and Copenhagen are superior to all Serie A sides including Roma and Napoli? or that Conte who seems to outsmart almost all the italian coaches and Benitez suddenly turns into an idiot midweek in CL games?
The defense had low concentration and gifted Gala two goals in Turin and gifted Ronaldo a goal too. That very same low concentration was reflected in Serie A too in case you have forgotten. We had a slow start to the season and we started hitting form when it was too late. Its not like Gala and Copenhagen are any better than Shakhtar, Celtic and Chelsea (teams that we overcame last year without Tevez and Llorente).
Conte is a big fish in a small pond. That's the truth. Every time we let in goals, we blame low concentration, what about the inability to score in Europe. We beat a half dead Chelsea , a Celtic teams thats get beaten every season, even the current AC Milan whooped them 3-0 at Parkhead. There's nothing great in this games. Maybe the away game to Shakthar was impressive but that's it. Benitez Napoli, actually had 12 points , they are only the second team in CL to not qualify with 12 points. Do you think if we were in their group we would manage 12 points?
No one seems to be answering, if we don't win the EL where would that put our season at? We are the top fave's in EL aren't we? And Conte has already said we want to win it.
Its frustrating to see teams like Inter Milan and Man U has more CL wins than us, we go in 10 games winning streak in Serie A and in Europe we fail against the likes of Copenhagen or Gala.

If we win, the Serie A three times in a row, does that place Conte's achievement above coaches like Lippi and Mourinho comparing about their experience in Serie A alone.
