honestly i am really worried. we have a serious problem on our hand, and while the return of 3 and 22 should make the defense a lot better, it won't solve the fact that the team lacks serious form. Last season we sucked at finishing too but almost every match we played we played with conviction, were almost the better team in 90% of them. This season i can remember maybe 5-6 matches that we looked really like a championship winning team.

I am not trolling when i say the only way i see anything positive happening is by the return of pepe. No B81 and Dule he is not Maradona and we aren't going to magically win every match. but his play will bring some intensity to the team and conte will be more likely to switch to 4-3-3 with him
Don't worry bro, I think I've become quite good at distinguishing your troll-posts from your more serious ones. And I'm with you all the way here. I agree 100 %. We're more arrogant this season, from the coach to the players. We play like we expect to win the title, and it's gonna backfire if we don't wake the fuck up.

I know it was only 15 minutes or so, but when he switched formations there was absolutely no width. Isla was terrible all game, Peluso wasn't even trying to get forward, Quagliarella isn't a wide player, Vucinic was playing through the middle and don't get me started on the other guy.

“Oh they weren’t penalties, the referee is always right,” said the Coach in an extremely sarcastic tone.

“In fact, Vucinic dived. He should’ve been booked for simulation and Marchetti didn’t touch him at all. Seba Giovinco was booked for diving? He should’ve been sent off, for you cannot try to con the referee like that.

“As for Klose, ooh, it was a very violent foul. An evident penalty.”
:lol: Baws.

he should really stop blaming the refs and the world, its not helping our team at all. the coaching team and players needs to take responibility and shove on the pitch we deserve to win.
Yeah but vucinic's one was clear penalty and that would change it everything.
For genoas game yes they should't blaming the refs because its only genoa and we should score 2-3 goals. But with lazio its different story because this is semi final. I don't know what the ref saw in that situation.

i didnt see it, but i really dont care anymore. we need to focus on our game, and not get cought up in things we can do nothing about. we have gotten our fair share of penalties this season, unlike last season. we are setting ourselfs up for failure with all this talk about refs and incidents. pure loosertalk, and it needs to stop

The 3-5-2 is our safest formation in terms of ball possession and limiting chances on our net. That's why we continue to use it. You play the odds. If you can control the ball all game and limit chances, you will win more times than not. Many more times. But it can be snuffed out if the opponent comes with a flawless gameplan like Petkovic did today. And if you're missing a proper regista. This is our 3rd meeting this year with Lazio and we're missing SIX (!!!) starters. That was a big problem.

Lazio trapped our wings all game and left Marrone relatively free. Teammates didn't trust him because he wasn't up for it today. Our build up became predictable. The same balls were being played all game. Made it easy for Lazio to become more aggressive on the backs of our forwards because they were receiving the same balls time and again. You can run through a forward if you get a head start.

I thought we should have went to 4-3-3 at half because:

1. When your opponent snuffs you out completely tactically, you have to do something, anything to change the game in your favour/introduce new variables/mix up the game. Especially when you are do or die.

2. We only needed a goal. If we concede another we can still get to extra time.

He should have seen by half time how badly Padoin and Marrone were miscast in such a fast, aggressive game. The time was at half to make the changes.

I think Conte could have done better today. I think he's become less willing to change the game as he was last year.

Well, crisis is a word, milan could have used at the start of the season. when they were just above relegation zone.
i look at circumstances. We miss a whole left flank, every goal comes from the left flank, for 6 games in a row now. We tried , but we simply cant close the gap there, and conte tried everything, but peluso and de ceglie $#@!ing up very hard this season.
I know, if we had chiellini or asamoah, we wouldnt be in this situation. Marotta's gamble on Peluso doesnt pay off. good its a loan. if we redeem it he's an idiot.
Having Pirlo and Marchisio struggeling ill/injured, is bad to. having vucinic injured for a while, knowing he's essential for us, is bad aswel.

Considering circumstances, its not a crisis. We can even drop -4 to napoli no problem.
Once we got our left flank and mvp up and running, with a fit vucinic in front, we'll seriously destroy this league.
I disagree completely, but thank you for actually explaining your view point.

Whats so Boss about his comments? He acts like a freaking 12 year Old girl... Should take a look in the mirror before blaming the refs... Get your tactics and players straight and there's no need to whine about every decision... Srsly things even out over the time. Remember catania this Year?

Conte being very sarcastic in the press conference.

"Juve's goal should have been disallowed because there was a Peluso foul. Vucinic dived in the penalty situation"
He needs to stop sounding like a sore loser and get on with it. Like seriously, man the fuck up with all your rigidity first up, boss.

Not it wasn't, the ball was going out of play and there's no way Vucinic could have arrived it with our without Marchetti touching him.

Too much talk this season, way too much. Last season he talked on the pitch, this season he is taking things for granted on the field and saving his "talents" to the press.

Disgusting actually and he is not only making us more hated than we already are, he is getting into the players heads that we are being mistreated. Instead he should do his job and fix the problems and stop asking Marotta to bring him Peluso, Padoin and Anelka.
