I watched the highlights only but what is obvious.

-We should stop the long balls tactic

-No one perfromed that good except for Del Piero

-Palladino should get his head straight, there's no way in the world he's going to be or arrive to Del Piero's level If he continues with this style

-Our midfield was just too weak.

What I cant get, is that CR tried Tiago and Almiron together before and it proved to be a wrong decision!!!
why is he insisting on that choice?! if he wanted to evaluate them, he should have introduced one then replaced him with the other one later in the game!

Although almiron was 0 and should already buy a one way ticket out of turin, i think there are some other players who didnt do much either. Like marchionni and well palladino was also not that good. Neither plays in XI although they have played more then tiago&almiron, they had chance to show what they can do, palladino had chance to show that he could play in XI, marchionni had chance to show that he can push nedved out of XI, and that his muscles are effective when they arent injured.

And although we are rebuilding, it seems we need to rebuild all over again in the next summer. WHAT A MESS.
Palladino was very bad but IMO Marco was one of the best "bad performer" against Empoli.

This is really pissing me off.

I cant believe we played long balls yesterday with Palla & DP upfront.

i don't believe we payed so much for those two. and don't tell me anything about tiago not getting enough chances, why did we buy him when he can't even start in lyon's midfield?

And he is blamed for benching them. And he is blamed for playing with the same starters, and now he is blamed for playing with the reserves after this game, while he is usually blamed for not giving them time. He is blamed regardless of what he does.


They do not work well together, but they played against parma too, and he is mainly using coppa to give time to the eternal benchers. And the eternal benchers are benchers for a reason, they do not perform when given the chance. Screw the tactical problems and how they arent match trained or whatever, not much expected, just to show they give a damn and some, even just little, individual competence. Not a single ounce of that was shown.

People are saying that the mistake was playing Tiago and Almiron together, well fact is Almiron alongside anyone is a mistake. Better yet Almiron himself is a mistake to football.

maybe he is an average footballer I mean not that bad, but the money we spent on him was a huge mistake.

No he is not an average footballer, he is a really bad footballer. He does not pass the ball, he kicks it away. If he intends to pass it he send it either laterally or backwards. He does not run, he does not follow his marker, he does not know how to defend, he does not know how to make zonal coverage. He is lazier than Riquelme and he thinks he is the new Veron.
