Antonio Conte (203 Viewers)

[Suns]

putting Chelo for Matri was the wrong move, not Ale for Mirko.

It was not the wrong move. He wanted to help Lichtsteiner defensively by moving Pepe back to the right and Esti on the left to help Chiellini.

People questioning anything this match . We had about 5 breakaways during the game and in the last 20 minutes Inter couldn't even get a shot. What do you want. He can't do much more than he did. On a different day it could have been 5-1.

This!

OK but Chelo started playing FW till Ale was brought on.

People always have something to moan about, It's incredible. The only mistake Conte did is the 'timing' of his subs, That's about it.

And Quagliarella instead of Del Piero.

I actually think del piero did master work with forcing of penalties and time wasting

The man is way too cautious with his subs, and anal about losing balance. What he doesn't realise is, players like Vidal and Marchisio will not be a 100 pxt if he plays them week in and week out without subbing them. Its just an absolute no fucking go. And where is Quag?

It's bad luck for Quag because a certain someone demands playing time.

Also Marchisio and Vidal are young, and we only play one competition. For a couple years, Barca's team were playing the same 11 for 50 games a year.

Whose that certain someone ? Speculate much

I agree with all you said here. I just want to add that we really should stop looking at players and their names and see the team as a whole unit. a lot of the frustration from thwarting people questioning conte is he doesny play quag or when's ellia coming on etc etc meanwhile were still in first place alone!

I think you need to factor in the way we tend to play our games. Or wind them down. Today may not be the right example as we were defy itely more solid on the ball vis a vis the last game towards the end. While Quag is being looked at as a player, I am actually seeing him as part of the bigger unit. The way to optimise this team, its movement and consistency, is having personnel cover key positions. By playing your team for 90 minutes every weekend, you will have people taking their places for granted, you will have players getting fatigued, and most importantly, their substitutes will not have the much needed time to find their rhythm. This is not about today. I think it's a pretty rigid outlook, to not play somebody for match time if nothing else, when you are well aware of how much they can contribute to your team. Its an outlook as a coach, where its good to see he's not rigid with his formations, I'd like him to have a si liar outlook to his personnel.

This 4-3-3 is continuing to convince me even more, it's pretty much how I expected the team to line up after several games and he would eventually drop the 4-4-2. The midfield three are the obvious strong point, I'm glad he's recognised that, so now he can be called "another stubborn Italian manager that won't change from his beloved 4-4-2 formation". There is a good variety of players from Pepe, Matri and Vucinic up front and they're working quite well with each other.

If Juventus has a more capable left back that will provide an attacking threat (and link up with Vucinic), like Lichtsteiner does on the right, then it could go quite far.

He doesn't start Elia

we had been saying this since preseason, thankfully he has seen it as well.

and Pirlo is not even playing well yet...

Conte must see something we don't we don't have all the information like him. all I can gather

Screwww Elia as long as we are winning!

 

[Azzurri7]

Everything he did was spot on tonight and great except for Matri-Esti subs IMO.

If you want to take Matri off, put Ale/Quag in. Vucinic was killing them on the wings and there was no need to move him from there.


Grande Conte.

Would love to see what Elia can create for us on the left flank.

Isn't he scoring in all the practice sessions? I guess we'll know more once the coppa italia begins.

What speculation? You think ADP is going to play 0mins in his last season. Of course we put him on ahead of Quags... and rightly so.
