Hopefully Conte sees that a formation change is needed, like the one today. Would be nice to see the same lineup/formation for Genoa this weekend!

I hope ronaldo gets stabbed with a knife full of aids, cyanide and poison.. after that someone will chop his leg of with a catana...

Also: sell marchisio if someone offers 20M+.. he is a useless ghost..

Pogba motm in my opinion..

- he gets away with that sort of thing commonly
- Marchisio was the reason they looked bad? You're right, his tactical approach stifled everything they did
- good in build up at times, generally too slow and too easily loosing the ball
- mhm
- Giovinco has looked good all season when given a chance
- no whilst vidal and pogba were going in for interceptions, marchisio closed many passing and running angles, explaining why we made a surprisingly high amount of balls recovered, and why real's passing was far from as fluent as usual
- pirlo offsets everything with his value in the build up. But my god pogba has matured. perfect in his role.
- yes, because conte gives him very few chances, but allways when there is loads of space. He could have scored, but the ref allowed tackling from behind and after that the real defence just kicked him out of the play without consequense

Btw I have to admit we played good, especially in the first half. One of the best matches this season from us.

And it was a very good match to watch.
Very enjoyable indeed. And change of formation obviously contributed to that. We must continue with this 4312/433.

We looked good. Some nice combinations in midfield and the defence felt solid apart from a few individual mistakes, which turned out to be decisive. Could have ended differently with 11 men.

I must say I'm happy Conte finally made a freaking formation change. Good thing he didn't stick to his usual stubborn guns.

I think this bodes well for the remainder of the season regardless of the UCL - I hope we try our hearts out in the EL.

bs red but stupid to give away the penalty. chiello needs to take a break

nice instinct from fernando

lol at vidal appealing for the penalty

i love martin

If saying the truth annoys you you'd better not read my posts. I have no goal.
The truth is that real madrid is an impressive team. That we went to bernabeu and had more possession then them when with 11 players, we had more chances and same passing completion. they created 1 single chance from open play and it was a big offside trap failure.

Juventus, whilst making 2 rookie mistakes, was better in the game, came back from behind and was actually looking to do the same in the second half

we went down to 10 players and didnt got overrun. No actually with pogba and giovinco twice, we were more dangerous then real madrid.

I'm proud of our players, who played with their heart and soul, and refused to give up.
