Krasic has offered more than Pasquato.

He was constantly being used on the right and he provided many crosses. Pasquato had a good run or two, but that's about it.
None of Krasič crosses were anything close to being dangerous, our only chances came from the Pasquato wing. Pasquato isn't wroking wonders too, but at least you know that the guy is from our youth not internationally established player, who is supposed to be one of the leaders.

    Del Piero in for second half, Matri-Vucinic isn't working at all. Krasič should wake the fuck up. Pirlo, Pasquato and De Ceglie are the only positives I've seen this far.
    lol where did you notice De Ceglie?

    He wasn't on his place, both Bonucci and Barzagli covered his ass a couple of times while his contribution in attack was 0

    ok i just checked the stats for their numbre 22 (montero). he's obviously more style than substance... did have 2 goals and 3 assists in 32 games last season and the season before he played in the 2nd league scoring 10 goals...

    His crosses were not off, all of them were in the box. Not great, but not bad either.

    Anyway, I said he's static but Pasquato offered nothing but 1 shot.

    Krasic has not had one cross that has come close to resulting in a goal, not to mention offsides, getting skinned alive more times than I can count in 45 mins, while pasquato is actually posing a goal scoring opportunity...today, pasquato has outplayed krasic.

    i feel like Krasic has the Amauri syndrome: hard work no end product means a great game apparently.

    Barcelona worked on this style for many years now. Conte (well, any coach) working with the team for just over a month isn't going to develop that, sorry.
    Well I can assure you Conte could work for 100 years on this team but if he plays with 2 strikers who do fuck all standing around up front, we will never come close to winning.

    This is how you beat the 4-4-2. Use your 4 man defence to pass the ball through our 2 strikers. The 2 strikers now stop moving. Now the ball is in midfield. Drop a striker off the 4 man defense. Now you have a 5 on 4 advantage. Bring up a fullback, now it is 6 on 4. Maintain possession for entire game while positioning players in between the "2 banks of 4". Watch the "2 banks of 4" shift side to side like a 1970s pong paddle all the while never coming close to the ball because they are outnumbered.

    If 4-4-2 team manages to get the ball they are all in a fucking straight line so they can only pass sideways. Press them and recover the ball.

    He's got very sloppy ball control and seems off balance every time he gets the ball

    His ball control is fine, but bang on the 2nd bit, he is off balance easily as holding mid/CM in two man CM duo. Allways been basically, he is just dissapears and is too ineffective in that role, doesnt have the physical presence to handle it. But it doesnt have to do with his lack of technical ability or ball control, which are fine, its one of the more refined parts of his all around game (that doesnt mean he is a maestro at ball retention like Pirlo next to him, but quite capable).

    if you want results, why are you bitching around how we play right now ? we had the same number of scenes in the penalty box like the opponent and its still 0 - 0... so nothing to cry about if you really only look for the results o_O
    Yeah, thanks to Barzagli's butt and some horrible finishing we are lucky to be drawing with Real Betis at the half time. Why shouldn't I be fapping is the question?
    Let's spend another 50+ mils, change 5-6 player and we could be leading them. Well... next year, anyway.

    I remember some actually, Vucinic was close to head it.

    He can afford being skinned, but Lich can't... and Lich got owned on the right too, Montero did skin his ass a couple of times pretty bad.

    He did nothing in attack, but stood his ground in defense and contained his winger well. Maybe he is responsible for some counters after free-kicks and corner-kicks, but that's Conte's responsibility how many men he sends in the box.

    I just disagree, as he was out of position almost always and I've seen Barzagli cover his side many times. I have no idea where he's place when he offers nothing up front, and sucks in defense too. Hell, even Bonucci came to cover the left side.
