I think we made the right move by not appointing Sergio Conceicao. I don't think Milan's season is receiving enough attention in the media. It is a fucking zoo there! Conceicao is always saying the same thing in his interviews, "we aren't aggressive enough". And then to show how aggressive he is, he answered one question in the press conference, said 'that's enough' and left after 30 seconds. Take some responsiblity you sore loser.

The narrative cannot all be about Magic Mike's mistake. After 3 minutes, Milan had 87 minutes to turn the game around. Every single time when Milan play with that front 4, other teams park the bus and punish them in transition. Joao Felix was atroicious in this game. Rafa Leao again MIA. Reijnders is wasted at DM.

And on that note, Italy fall behind Spain in UEFA ranking for 5th Champions League spot.

In case we dont lose in the Netherlands - Who would you prefer to face - Inter or Arsenal?
I personally think Inter are stronger but I rather we face them since they are usually our bitches no matter what season we are in. On the other hand its CL and we tend to screw it up there...

I think we have a realistic chance against both sides

Inter - they are seriously struggling in the big games. They have averaged 1.3 points per game in Serie A matches against the top eight.

Arsenal - they don't have a striker, lots of injuries, and struggling to compete on multiple fronts. No European DNA.

Neither of those sides would want to face us.

Well of course not when there is Milan also in it.. Juve might not be in their best season but are still better than Milan and tougher to play against.

Arsenal no European DNA - I dont know, its not like our team is just waiting to explode into the next CL winners..

Realistically speaking Arsenal are more about possession quickness creativity, good at applying pressure. They should be tough for us to overcome.
Inter are definitely stronger as when they hit form they are one of the best sides in Europe. Even in their loss against us - They created a lot and could finish off any of these moves in any other game. It happened also in the first encounter - They missed a lot but they also got our number until they became too smug and allowed us back in the game.

The way I see it:
Juve Inter - 40% chance of going through
Juve Arsenal - 45% chance of going through

Can we get any other team or is it only one of these two?
