Next season we must be starting Marchisio at CDM

Pirlo goes down as a club legend for me, and he's a footballing great. But I don't care how much I like an individual player, the club comes first and even if it meant dropping a team full of my favourite players in place of a bunch of unlikable scumbags to improve results then that's how it should be.

Right now, we play better with Marchisio in the middle, and with anybody but Llorente in the team. So that's how we should approach big games. Pirlo can get plenty of minutes, but Marchisio, Vidal, Pogba should be the trio.

I am pissed that Romulo has been an injury wreck, he's a great option in rotation. I would not worry about him starting in any Serie A game.

Our tallest defender, Bonucci seemingly can't win shit in the air inside our own box, albeit he can do it anywhere else. Chiellini loses concentration too much on set pieces and Barzagli is not exactly athletically gifted, we resort to wrestling in the box to try and make up for it. Sadly there's not much we can do as i'm sure this team have worked on it plenty of times to no success.

I guess Caceres is doing way better defending the air in our box than every center back we have!!

Ok saw the whole thing.

Firstof all, yeah party poopers, i have to agree that they showed little opposition, and were mostly afraid of us and waiting the inevitable. I would like to see this kind of approach from us against propper opposition who press our plays... but...

Fack that man...some of the goals were sublime (holy coman Nedvedpowerbomb),

Obvs Pogba was ruling the fields of justice...showing his technique here and there. Good practice for him

Giovinco played well, but as of late continues to get too selfish sometimes and poops it. Im sure it is because he is faked as hell fr not getting playing time and doesnt care a damn...but well..

Pereyra did ok and sealed it with a nice goal with a nice touch and nutmeg

Coman came in and right away made his presence felt. He misjudged just one decition,,,the rest were all dangerous runs and nice passes. IN a very short space on time, and that goal was...welle veryone saw it to judge. This guy definitely has HUGE potential.


Im specially happy for 2 guys: Pepe and Cheesio. Marchisio played very composed and i cant deny i fuking love him playing as Deeplying playmaker. he can start plays and dictate game, but he can run his lungs out and tackle. Not to mention he got decent skills in dribbling and ball control. A jack of all trades DM who should be playing waay more in this position. He finally found his place.

Pepe. He continued the good job he was doing in preseason. One guy mentioned it but no one commented: what i liek of him is that eh is eager to run into spaces with the ball, no matter fi theres a dude to beat on teh way. Sometimes we simply need to be more direct and do this kind of things like Coman and Pepe did..instead of being passing in circles with no purpouse. I was saying it before the game,...and ill say ti again...Pepe could be a great asst if he recovers more of his form. He is no wolrd beater, but he isnt shid and has good lungs and will to run for the team. Good job.

Also no one mentioned one guy...Storari!. Did greaatsaves and was ready to stop his goal to be ebaten!! thumbs up for him}!

Allegri, please...think about this game... please.

Obviously a weakened Verona who were never in it but a good performance and a fantastic result. I wouldn't think a repeat is likely this weekend though. Brilliant goal by Coman. I really do hope he is given a chance to play and gain experience and maturity because he is without a doubt a star for the future. A lovely goal by Pereyra too. Two really nice touches. We seemed to move the ball better and have much greater variety in attack, rather than the standard forward movement we have seen again and again lately. Definitely some positives to take out of it. While his performance was good, scoring twice and winning a penalty, I'm not overly happy Giovinco played. It is clear he won't be around come the end of the season, so we shouldn't even pick him. Focus on our future and give someone else a chance to develop. Overall though, extremely happy.

Almost every time coman plays we wonder why he doesn't play more. So the question is, why doesn't he play more?? He's going to be the next Neymar.

Coman is like an improved Giovinco by the looks of it.
Better decition making, better mentality, good shot (both feet), good dribbling, eye for assists, much younger.
