Don't be afraid, you can name me. I'm the one who publishes photos of him, and other players and Juve's matchs, and I do it cause I like it and cause I can, it doesn't have to be that superficial, if you're trying to say that. When I make comments about his hairstyle and banal things I'm just kidding and being ironic. But I don't understand why you use that as a poor argument to defend your great contributions about your monothema.
Nah its not just you and I know that you are not an idiot obviously, I like your contribution on the forum. But its not that I am posting completely crap just bashing him because I dont like him. I bring different content to 'prove' my points.
And a thread about an individual player is always gonna be a monothema. The monothema here has been that Mandzukic is our greatest player and that he works harder than his teammates and that he is such a qualified football player, something I completely disagree with. I have been trying to break that monothema bringing stats and critical views into the picture. Obviously he is a great football player, else he wouldnt be playing at Juve, but I think we have so many other players who are not getting nowhere near similar credit, for much harder work and contribution to the team.
Then there are a bunch of people who likes to act cool to gain online credit and feel good about themselves, by throwing insults on those that are already not so popular on the forum as an easy way to archieve that. That is of course hilarious but something that can be expected from a somewhat poorly moderated online space that can be accessed by even simpletons.

We dominated half the game, the other half was pathetic. I wouldn't call this our best performance either, and certainly not "a qualified team." And perhaps Mandzukic would've given that "sharpness up front" to score more goals.
Most people seem to think that this was our most impressive European away show for quite a while, and we usually never control a team the way we did yesterday. 2nd half was not the greatest, but more like how we usually play against big teams, and we needed fresh legs in midfield clearly.
Maybe Mandzukic could have scored a goal, we will never know. But we know that his goal statistic is not great, so it would be more likely that he wouldnt. We won the game convincingly, so it seems a far reach to claim that he should have played instead of one of the others. Playing with Mandzukic also means one man less in buildup and to create chances. You win some and you loose some.
