I was at that joke of a game last night, and I can personally tell all of you that this team, led by Antonio CAN'T-e, is no fucking different that DUMB Neri's team of last season
We were promised an attacking 4-2-4, and what we got was a clumsy 4-4-2, with longballs being the fucking flavor of the night
And CAN'T-e is already coming up with excuses about 42 degree heat. When the whistle blew to start the game, it poured like hell, and the temp went down to a comfortable 25....I'm surprised he didnt use the rain as an excuse as well
We looked awful..... couldnt cover on set pieces, and had defensive lapses that made Sporting look like Barcelona FFS !!!! Did I mention the longballs, and the lack of creativity by the midfield an offense ???
What made matters worse for me, besides being poured on and watching a live replay of last season was the fact that I was surrounded by Sporting fans, and one family in particular next to me. They had a 15 year old son named "Justin" who screamed every 5 seconds (no lie). By the 30th minute, I wanted to push Justin down the stairs. I wasnt sure if I should get him a drool cup or a prozac at halftime. You can see just how shitty my night was......
The only bright spot was DP scoring in the second half...otherwise, I am sorry I spent my money on such a shit product. Now I know why the stadium was half-filled, and why there werent many Juve fans there.
CAN'T-e is going to go the way of another legend, Ciro Ferrara, who will be remembered more as a flop of a coach here, and not for his great playing years
