:lol: We are the team who had most shots in Champions League and some people are acting like we have some problems in attacking...

Yeah, you heard it well... More shots than Bayern, more than Barça, more than PSG, or other overhyped teams.

"But 3-5-2 is sh#t"... :lol: Some people doesn't even watch matches and gives judgements like this. I give up already if you can't understand this.

To not mention the fact that the last one was a hockey match played at 2:00 PM, without our fans, with our players tired (without hotel until midnight, FFS) and stressed... Let's look at the 5 football matches.

In the match tied with Galatasaray we had 27 shots. It's a record in this CL. Away at Copenaghen we had 26 shots, their keeper saved everything, best night of his life. It's the second record.

We set a new record of shos against Madrid, 24. Not even Borussia last year or Barça could do it. In Madrid, one-man-less for a half (ridiculous ref), still had the same number of shots, 13 vs 13. "But Conte doesn't understand nothing in Europe..." :lol:

What we missed in this CL was luck (but we had a LOT of bad luck instead). some better finishing, some mentality from some players, and a pair of brainfarts in defense.

But saying we played bad in this Champions League is a massive bullshit, you must be totally result-oriented and didn't watch most of he matches.

The way we played Gala at home was a complete joke and there is no excuse. We came out defending. They had the ball most of the 1st half. They had just switched to Mancini and had just come off a joke loss to a trash team in their domestic league. All we had to do was press the shit out of them from the 1st minute and we would have killed the game off immediately. Instead, we tried some ridiculous Italian bullshit defensive tactic and predictably conceded the 1st goal. We then played properly for the last 30 minutes and were unlucky.

Guess what. That's what happens when you leave yourself 30 minutes to score 2 goals. It was a complete joke of a tactic from Conte. And the first game against Copenhagen was not much better. Basically the same thing. Those 2 results were pathetic and killed us. You don't come away with 2 points against FCK and Gala at home and blame luck. It happened twice in a row.

I love how people bust out stats when it suits them. We were abysmal and embarrassing in Europe, and we paid the price for it. We should've destroyed the Danes away and Gala at home. The Madrid results were acceptable, as well as the approach/attitude in both those games. The results and manner of play in the other two games wasn't.

Again, how does a coach who played 2 seasons in the CL scoring lots of goals in the first and a mediocre amount of goals in the second be labelled unable to score in Europe? Why is your assessment based only on this season? is this a different Conte or a doppelganger? You conveniently ignore the parts of his record where he disproves your claim and focus on the part that somewhat barely supports it. Ironically enough you are using the Celtic of this season to weaken the Celtic of last season.

You are clutching at straws here brother.
Because like you mentioned , our first season in CL we had mediocre striker and now this season we have better strikers. But where did we end up. 3rd place . And half of our goals, is from PK. From open play we can take 50 shots in a game but there's no use if it doesn't go in. Using luck and form is an easy excuse. Last season, we didn't have good strikers. This season we have the strikers, the excuse given is bad form. Lose the objective and start giving excuses.

Lets see what excuses come when we don't win the EL. Agree to disagree my friend.

Winning isn't everything, it's the only thing. No body remembers losers regardless how good they are.

We tend to overestimate every team in CL. I suspect this is due to the fact that we play a lot of average teams in Serie A.
