Our defense looked old this match. Yes after we took the lead we improved but till that point the 60 mins basically we looked slow at the back. Its worry going forward.

It doesnt help if u play cb as rb. These Tottenham youngsters caused lot of problems. If we face a bigger team say Bayern/Real next we will have big problems. Need to bring Caldara in the summer. And start Rugani.

Barza is a legend but maybe its time to call it a day before it turns ugly. Against serie a teams we wont see these problems cause usually we are so much superior. But in CL we face other leagues top3-4.

Need to sign a new RB and a top mid to replace Khedira. Enough is enough.

Yeah although he had an absolute field to run into all game. He is good though.

Loved how Lichtsteiner mentally bullied him when he came on though. Kicked him, squared up to him, forced him to commit irritated fouls. Such a bastard :D
Absolutely! Steph definitely made a huge difference. Son has lots of pace and technical quality, gotta be physical with a player like that. Can't just let him run free.

Will always love Andrea, but at 36 there's no way he can really compete in that matchup. Needed Lichtsteiner to lean on him a bit.

No, I beg to differ. Conte DNA barely got us past the group stage of the CL. That DNA style meant we were predictable, one-dimensional, and had no plan B if we faced adversity.

I'm not saying Juve is fine, but Allegri isn't our main problem right now. Healthy game-changers on the bench and a midfield that can actually control the ball are my biggest concerns at the moment.

Patience was a big factor in favor of Juve today, not so much a specific moment of the Spurs fucking up. Juve fucked up lots today too. It's what you do when those opportunities show themselves and do you capitalize on them?
Allegri sets the team up to win/draw based on what outcome we require. It differs greatly from team to team and competition to competition. Against Lazio we played not to lose, with the CL game coming up. Only after we reached the fag end of the match did we even try to attack and get bonus points. Max does not care about style or DNA or possession or any of that. Trophies at the end of the season is all that matters. If we win by a single point or a single goal, doesn't matter. Some people might not like it, some may call it un-big-club-like. Those people can fuck off :D

What we need is a clear game plan. A clear idea of how we want to play. There's no Allegri DNA. We had a DNA with Conte. The 352 and the players in it. Barza, Liverpool, Tottenham - hell even Napoli have a clear DNA. A brand of football. You can replace the players one by one and it won't change much. We need a style of play that is us. We play a different type of football every god damn game. We won because we have a world class coach who read the game and made the right changes. But he was wrong up until he dared make those changes.


We scored two goals today but the recipe is really hard to explain. Higuain scored on his single shot at goal. Dybala scored on his second shot on goal. That's an effiencicy out of this world. We need to create more chances. I agree Tottenham is tactically too offensive, but the two goals we manage to score is not because we play great. It's because Tottenham $#@!ed up.
Not this crap again. Napoli got schooled in europe. What identity is that?

We were largely meh with Conte in CL. His identity got smashed by Real, Bayern but also Galatasaray. The only good memory was win away to Chelsea who already were struggling as they had been found out and lets be honest. RDM fluked/lucked his way towards that CL they won previous season.

Btw Spurs' backline :howler: Trippier and Sanchez :howler:

I liek what Pooch is up to at Tottenham, but he can't organise a defense if his life depended on it.
