Finally a great game in Europe by this team. Hopefully it stays like this all the way to the final. Keep this, Conte.

Is there something about 2012/13 in there?

 

[GordoDeCentral]

ok i cant help you any further

 

[radekas]

I will make it easier for you as obviously you are too stubborn to admit you tried to play a smartass.

Finally a great game = It's been so long since we had a great game

Hope this helps.

radekas just say you meant finally a great game this season in Europe We played better games then this in CL last season.

 

[radekas]

And once again I have never said we didn't.

Although I think we didn't dominate a team that much in Europe since the 3-0 Chelsea game so it has really been a long time.

Let's just enjoy the fact that whatever Conte fielded in the previous two matches.. we won... clean sheet... we gave a couple players who hardly had any playing time some playing time... we learned a few things about some of our players... and we didn't have any injuries..... plus we gathered some coefficient points along the way...

awww yeahh... now lets focus on bbilan

Yeah, but let's shit on Conte anyways for not taking the competition seriously and playing pussy tactics.

Conte: "Giovinco did well with the assists, but he is right to get angry when he doesn't score. He is a striker, so he should want to score goals."

Love Padoin - every team needs reliable squad players. He rarely lets us down.

Honestly I am a bit worried after this game.

Conte tactics failed, what made the difference was actually the huge gap between 2 teams regarding quality. We have Tevez-LLorente, they have Pazzini - Taarabt - washed up Kaka.

The main reason why we played so badly was more on the players attitude I guess. Exhaustion from the trip to Turkey probably influenced.

But once again, the team was utterly dominated when sitting back, instead of pressing upfront, like we are used to do. This has failed many times in Europe. And once again we struggle badly against teams which press and play a high tempo - exactly what happens in Europe.

I really hope Conte can notice this and make the adjustments. But I'm not very optimistic this will happen, in view of our sheer domination in Italy.

so you want us to press with only 2 full days since our last game when playing away to a rival?

We get territorially dominated so often against all types of teams that is a cause for concern.

Well apart from Pogba (who played less than a half) and Bonucci other guys didn't play. Marchisio has been rotating.

Anyway, if Conte decides to play it back from the midfield, 442/433 is better suited IMO.

i personally think we played it almost perfect, we sucked up the pressure well and only really let our guard down with really silly give-aways, our first gol was a thing of beauty only real teams can pull off.
