Not sure about that. I fear that his return could shift us into super-slow motion mode in Europe, which isn't ideal there.

i like your posts in the marchisio thread then, also i recommend reading the live thread before we scored then compare it to what was written in the allegri thread after the game concluded
. What am I supposed to be looking for, Tuz fickleness?
This was supposed to be our easiest match of the entire Champions League this season, after all. It's only downhill from here.
I'm really looking forward to seeing how we square up against Atletico in a few weeks. Will be one hell of a game. Atletico will really be looking to go for a win, so that might blunt their counter attacking style a bit, we could take advantage. I really hope Pirlo and Vidal are back by then.
Are people seriously whining about our performance today, where we won 2-0, with 21 attempts (7 on goal) to 4 attempts (1 on goal), and 79% possession to 21%, and 0 yellow cards (yes, this is important)...
Edit.
They didn't have a single attempt at goal after the 34th minute, that's how dominant we were for the last hour. Not even a single attempt from distance, nor a blocked attempt, nothing for the entire last hour.

we still very much lack advanced attacking element/flair... the 1st goal for example, such a move should've been attempted much earlier in the game and IIRC we didn't even try that before that goal... we really need that attacking midfielder or creative wingers, 3 CBs, 3CMs and 2 relatively skill less wing backs cannot offer us enough attacking flair.
Enough with the attacking flair nonsense. We had plenty of it in this match. And we had plenty of decent chances before our goal. Of course this is Malmo, not Real Madrid. 79% possession wouldn't happen against Madrid. Limiting an opposing side to 4 attempts on goal, and not 1 for an entire hour of the match doesn't happen against any team besides Malmo. We could easily have scored 4-5 goals from the chances we created this match. Easily. We didn't. So we won 2-0, instead of 4-0 or 5-0.
Also, we're not Real Madrid. We're not always going to bury 5 goals against mediocre teams. We're rarely that clinical with our chances. Utter domination and a 2-0 win is a performance I'll always be happy with, regardless of opponent.

First half performance was so bad I thought Conte had returned to manage us.
The second half was better, but this was also in part because after Tevez scored the first, Malmo lost some of their discipline and it opened the game up much more for us. Had Malmo still kept their shape we wouldn't have created a lot.
Llorente was our worst player for me, when he's surrounded by defenders he contributes nothing to the team. He was way too static and missed a sitter to put the game beyond doubt. Morata should start vs Meelan on Saturday.
MOM was obviously Tevez, but I thought Caceres was once again fantastic, Barza is going to have a hard time winning his spot back when he returns from injury. Asa was also very good. Lict exceptional too.
Get a draw in Madrid and I think we have set ourselves up nicely.
