need to add some flair and quality in the attacking 3rd.

for all our endeavour we only had one big chance, Benfica largely untroubled even with 10 men.

you call that tactical reasoning? we're in need of a goal so lets take off our most creative ball player and stick on a right half who has been useless all season, at least osvaldo as much as i dislike him is more likely to score a goal than isla ever will

i'd sooner see padoin on over isla

in such situation we didn't need slow ass DLP's creativity (besides the role would've passed to pogba or marchisio whatever), we needed pace and directness, players who can beat men with ball on their feet, isla is better than padoin in that aspect... if it were up to me I'd sub in gio, isla and quaq, with pirlo bonucci litch out, 1 cb 2 fbs 2cms 3 ams 2 sts... the hell with defending against tired 10-9 men team in horrible weather at home SF match trailing a goal from qualification to the final with 15 minutes left.

Sack him, no one rates Serie A, we have 31 titles, and only 2 CHL, no wonder they call us cheats Inter and Milan have less Serie A tittles but more CHL.

Inter have 2 as we have.

There is nothing to argue , its conte for or conte against , not many realize with what he has he is doing a good job , any neutral watching the game would say what he said in an interview we did outplay them really but yes we dint take our chances , we are not good in the final 3rd but realistically thats all we got .
Some here are saying we play pussy tactics , this is what jorge jesus said : We won the final because we did better in calculating the two games. Juve are a good team, but Benfica has made ​​two great defensive evidence. "
We couldnt break them down , if players dont take their chances in such games it proves costly and it did for us.

I guess you're right, Conte is never wrong. You finally convinced me.

Inter have 2 as we have.

Unfortunately it's 3.

 

[zizinho]

Pogba deserves a medal... IMO he was world class... Hats off to a 21 year old..

he and Vidal are the core of the team. we can build a CL winning team around them in the next few years

yeah sub a player who is ineligible

 

[GrandeGigi]

Late in the game we had pirlo on the ball on the ball behind the half way line, and there was a back 4 behind the ball. I can't imagine any desperate team chasing a game doing that, it defies logic.

 

[DUKAC]

And also I don't understand why we have a poll MOM in a game like this.We should arrange a poll'Flop of the match" .There will be many contenders.

 

[napoleonic]

yeah sub a player who is ineligible

whatever, anyone but subbing out llorente for osvaldo

 

[enzo]

Well fuck this. Conte and Juve forever.

 

[AOD4]

Inter have 2 as we have.

3 actually. Fuck them and Man U for having more CL than us.

 

[Mister]

I guess you're right, Conte is never wrong. You finally convinced me.

How would you have done it ? Do you think a different formation perhaps ? . In this game he went all out in attacking mode with our subs too , i dont see what really went wrong other than us being poor in the final 3rd of the pitch .
what do you feel went wrong ?

 

[Badass J Elkann]

whatever, anyone but subbing out llorente for osvaldo

seriously what did Llorente add to tonights match? and if we were able to sub on vucinic instead you'd still be hating so what's new?

 

[DUKAC]

Unfortunately it's 3.

Are you sure?I am not joking I think that Inter got 2.

 

[abstract]

Are you sure?I am not joking I think that Inter got 2.

Yes ,they have 2 CL titles.
You're right

 

[swag]

Caceres was actually my MoM. Would have voted Pogba, but he disappeared in the second half when we needed him.

I have said it multiple times before, ask some of those who share your opinion and they will help you out. They consider my posts preaching doom and borderline suicidal.

 

[no_name_boys]

Benfica have 7 CL finals. Won 2.
Benfica have 3 EL finals. Lost 2, and 1 to play.
