I said it the other day, looks like we have another coach in Europe. It's pathetic. We didn't deserve to go through playing like this in Europe.

This. Our finishing was awful through the two matches. His tactics were pretty good, there's something lacking in the mentality of our strikers and goal scorers in Europe and Conte has to take a little of the blame for that. It seems our players get really nervous on the ball around the opponents net in these big European matches this year. Part of that is mentality.
playing 2nd grade tiki taka with defenders is very good tactics? :rofl: always relying only on a pair of WBs to attack wings is a good tactics? :rofl:

the more I think about it the more ridiculous it sound :rofl: you see we always in every matches try to play from sides and deliver crosses, yet we always done it with so called defensive wing backs that are rather inept at attacking :rofl: it should be that at very least once we tried to attack wings with peluso litch asamoah and isla all at once... but so far it never happened... it's cringe worthy tactics....

but wait, what's most baffling is that conte once played with 4-2-4 and 4-3-3 that had one or two wingers and that those wingers we once had weren't at any significantly better level than guys like asamoah and isla yet conte moaned about the lack of wingers :sergio:

Juventus, Conte: "In the end who earned less. Cheated by the referee "

Crashes into the dream Juventus against Benfica Jorge Jesus. Portugal in the final of the Europa League. At the end of the challenge lost the Stadium, Conte spoke to the microphones of SkySport: " We played only 49 minutes actual, the referee has allowed this "open polemic with the referee. And "Benfica goes into the final with two shots on goal in two games, missing a penalty for us." "There was the episode in our favor. I'm sorry, but because we did not play Benfica, has made ​​great filibuster. There was also a mockery of the arbitrator has given six with three minutes of recovery that were not played. They have absolute values, are used to these games, but in the double challenge we deserved more. We gave everything and the season is exciting and we can go head-on. There was also a sensational penalty is normal and regret. " Season long and expensive? "It 's been a season-consuming, but today we ran up to the last second. I'm just going on who earned less. "

Google translation - he is blaming referee :sergio: what the fuck :sergio:

Conte: 'Benfica don't deserve Final'

Antonio Conte complained about the referee and Benfica time-wasting. “The team that least deserved it went through.”

The Coach spoke to Sky Sport Italia after a 0-0 Europa League semi-final, which sent the Portuguese through thanks to their 2-1 first leg win.

“What didn’t work was that we didn’t get that incident going our way. It’s a shame, as these games are right on the limit, Benfica obstructed us at every turn and the referee allowed them to do it.

“He gave six minutes of stoppages when we were already three in without playing, so it took us for a ride,” said Conte of English referee Mark Clattenburg.

“It’s a shame, as with two shots on target over two legs Benfica went through. Over the two games Juventus certainly deserved to go through.

“I think Juventus gave all they had. It is an exciting, but also very exhausting season, because for the first time we’ve reached the final stages of European competition.

“I don’t think we saw a team struggling to stay on its feet tonight. They ran from the first to the 95th minute. It was a strong performance, we didn’t get the lucky moment we needed to change the game, so in that sense Benfica were more fortunate.

“It was a real pity, as in the first leg there was a red card and penalty for the elbow on Chiellini, while tonight there was an obvious penalty not given. The team that least deserved it went through.

“You just have to look at the statistics. Benfica had two shots on target over two legs. That was it. They have international experience and showed it tonight, as down to 10 men they stopped us playing and I am truly disappointed the referee allowed them to get away with that.”

The Europa League Final will be at the Juventus Stadium on May 14 between Sevilla and Benfica.
Add insult to injury. What a fucking idiot.

First of all we allowed ourselves to be in this situation where we really need to score against one of the most defensive teams in Europe, that is not down to luck, it's simply down to lack of ability to put yourself in a better situation.

Secondly, you are playing at home and want a win and you play with such a line up, sort of like Mourinho did at the Bridge and look what happened. Conte should have watched Chelsea - Atletico to see the suicide Mourinho commited. Do we attack? Yes we do, do we have a plan? yes we do but we don't execute it well. But above all, we have one plan only. The moment we changed formation we could not create anything and it's simply because we are not used to it. In other words, we lack variation. We cannot surprise our opponents. We are too predictable and when the clock ticks it becomes much easier for the defenders to stop us.

Last but not least, that interview is simply a shame. This is exacytly what I mean by pussy attitude in Europe. Do whatever you want with that statement, we play pussy football and we have a pussy attitude and it's obvious where it is coming from.

Ok, here is the thing. Conte can play as DEFENSIVELY AS HE WANTS. I don't care, hell, even Real Madrid and Chelsea play defensively. But make sure you always have more than 1 player(tevez) who can create something to win you the game.

This notion that you can't play defensively with good offensive players is absurd. Real use Ronaldo, Bale, Di Maria and Benzema and still manage to park the bus and close out all the space. Same thing with Chelsea who at least have Hazard, Willian Oscar out there to counter or attack with.
but but but... they are all just flair and fancy :rofl:

The way some made fun of Benfica before we played against them. :lol:
Benfica proved the are a cheating and lucky team over 2 matches. We where clearly the better team, but with the attacking firepower of a broken softgun, we manage to be the biggest disappointment in 2 eu cups in on year. Biggest eucup dissapointment scudetto to juve

Its not really about winning eu cups, but more about progressing to teams much worse than juve, like galatasaray. Not beating københavn, nordskjelland. Going out against benfica who is or atleast should be considered lesser than juve. Its just not good enough in europa.
You have selective memory. Why don't you mention Chelsea or Shakhtar?
Juve's bench is as good as your average EL team.
Did you watch Isla and Ogbonna playing against Sassuolo?
