I don't think he's talking about winning the whole thing, but winning at least a game.
We still have 3 chances to achieve that :D

I'm disappointed about last night's result (not so much the performance in itself) as well, but do we really need to go full retard in every single thread? If I'm going by what I'm reading here, I'm surprised not everyone committed suicide a few years ago.

I'm not going full retard by any mean. My stance has been the same even before the start of the season. We have a deep team with a nice core of players. But i always said that we don't have difference makers, star players maybe bar Pirlo, altough his form has been supbar this year, this is why i thought that we didn't need to go and buy another 4 " squad players " and buy one star and he would've have more influence on our game than those 4. Especially that you only need 14-15 players in your squad not 20 players.

Yeah, I know your opinion on the matter. By heart now :D

But the bit I quoted confuses me. With a squad of 15, we'd probably already be out of the scudetto race by now. If you're supposed to challenge on 2 or 3 fronts, you absolutely need a squad of 23-25 players. Most of them being players you should be able to count on immediately.

Good luck.

This is something i disagree with some of the posters here, imo you only need 15 good players and you can complete the squad with the Giaccherrinis of the world.
I gave example of Barca and how many option in the bench they have ( Adriano who can cover both flanks, Song in the MF and Villa and Fabregas on the attack+the other players they feature are basically youngsters )
Same thing for Madrid, Mourinho plays the same team the whole damn year.
My point is that if you had a good starting team with a couple of stars that can make the difference for especially that we have a great defence, and 3/4 good options on the bench, the end of the bench doesn't matter in a scenario like this because you can get by playing anyone if the your team is strong enough.

Actually attack isnt the only missing part of this team IMO, our defense is Soo slow it's ridiculous and personally I've said this before, this defense would get exposed against faster tempo teams in Europe.

Only Bonucci is, and he plays so deep it's not really an issue.

So you're basically saying our defense is now a weak link?

What next, midfield, because they are in so-so form?

This is utter bullshit. We had an off night and got a very poor result and suddenly people forget that we're unbeaten in 47 Serie A games, have the best attack and defense in the Serie A and that we in general play really nice football.

:blah: :blah: :blah:

We lack quality in attack; it's painfully evident, even to the blindest soul out there. Hopefully we can progress in Europe, and somehow this goofball realizes that we needs a quality player in attack to make us competitive. We can't rely on Vucinic to bail us out every single time, because out other attackers are all domestic/local level strikers.

Honestly, I'd rather play our youngsters than the likes of Matri, Quag, Gio, and Bendtner @ this point in time. We know what we get with these guys, close to absolutely nothing, while some of the young ones might actually surprise.

We know what we get, yet you were the one thinking we would win 0-3 (at least). Strange.
