I'm sick of us dropping deep to deal with pressure, we have not prssed the opposition in i dont know how long. Every top team is pressing right now we are the only team that drops deep to deal with pressure, that tactic kind of works if u have a counter attack but we dont have one so it then takes us forever to start our build up play to get to the opponents box.

These pussy tactics my work in the league because we have the best players by a mile but pretty soon Roma might close the gap on us in the league in the next year or so and we will be playing backwards football while they are playing free flowing attacking football.

I think sitting back was a decent tactic given that Torino's big strength is hitting on the counter.

Plus look at the goals we have conceded in recent weeks from pushing too many forward and then getting hit on the break.

I think we sat back a bit too much and should have done more to control the ball which was poor, but overall I would not say that it was the wrong tactic.

Hahaha true true, they had time to rest and in the end looked like shit and jaded.
That's because the "resting players" is a poor excuse because he doesn't want to admit with the media that he doesn't give a single fuck about that Cup.

We must have one of the least fit squads out there, or Conte must be insane. Because I swear if we play more than one game in 7 days half of our squad are dead on their feet just after half time.
Actually, the problem is that we don't rotate much, and when we do, it's not in the league unless it's forced due to injuries/suspensions.

Juventus have used the least amount of plauyers in Serie A, we are resting our players and saving them to when it most matters it seems.

True. Instead of rotating the standard way, we play our starting XI in a long string of games then we end up replacing half the line-up with Peluso & friends. Really it would make more sense to play 1 or 2 of our sub-standard players in the league from time to time, instead of being forced to use most of our bench in one go.

I remember against Bayern he played the same team he played 3 days before in the league. He doesn't believe in rotating and Bayern were nice and fresh for that game.
