Well going by the last few pages everyone seems to be bitching about not wiping the floor with Fiorentina and maybe not winning the EL
You seem to twists argument at ur will just to have a say on this.
What u ignore, is the fact that we have a VERY strong team in comparison with most teams around the globe...and not only that, but we show it smashing opponents left and right on the league. So, the natural would be that in the same way we show courage on the league...dominating most opponents and such...we would at the very least try to emulate that on Europe. But thats not the case, and in fact , is totally the opposite.
THATS why we get mad. Becuase we see an inexplicable apathy from our team and above all, from our coach to this competitions, and is frustrating as fuk.
And Badass, i think no one has forgotten the DelNeri/Ferrara/Zach times. But dude, we have come a long long way from that. We are in our momentum. We have still some champions of an past era and newcomers eager to show their worth, so the least we can do is to do our best to win what we can.
We have new standards now, we cannot be living on those times because we have a much much better squad now. Yes, most of it is thanks to Conte, and we are grateful for that. But he needs to stop acting like Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde in relation to Europe and Serie A. Because its sickening.
Yes we do not have a WC squad able to win everything yet... but when u see Conte playing our first eleven to its fullest on weekend against genoa and a 14 point lead, with a must win tie coming in thursday....then it makes u wonder why his priorities are soooo bended to a league he has alsmot in his pocket.
I want Conte to continue his work with us, i really do.. because IMO he is a perfect match for us. He was a good player, he knows the game , he knows the institution and is a fiery coach. And for all of this, it hurts me when i see him failing so hard in Europe... because the only explanation i can find for this, is that he still lacks the knowsledge and the right mentality for this tournaments.
But i also have to admit that we lack some crucial units in the team, so ill wait until conte gets the players he wants to see if h can make it or not, because lets be sincere...we are one foot out of the EL.
I remmber that when this current season started....Conte strictly said his ain objective was the scudetto, and the rest was a plus. So it must be that he was also ordered by Agnelli to focus only on the record scudetto and nothing else.
We will have to wait for next season to see what his objectives will be. Maybe they will go all out and buy players to tackle europe seriously, who knows. So then and only then ill give my final verdict to Conte.
