If we're going to play a 3421 we really should use Mandzukic instead of Douglas Costa imo.

Max doesn't know how to teach his team how to circulate the ball and pass with purpose. We are painful to watch against any decent side.
Our easy opening round of fixtures has given a false impression of how good our attack is. Dybala was just in red hot form against mostly average teams. In the Champions League we have scored 5 goals in 4 games. That is the worst out of all the teams that (right now) are going through to the Ro16. All the others have scored 7 or more.
We are slow, predictable, and clueless when transitioning from defence to attack. We aimlessly pass the ball from side to side, and then usually just score from individual brilliance or a set piece.
This is a serious limitation of Allegri as a coach that needs to be addressed.

You want to talk about statistics:
- Last season we scored 77 goals in the league. Napoli scored 94 and Roma scored 90.
- Last season we scored only 1.69 goals per game in the CL. That was only the 9th highest.
- This season in the CL we have scored 5 goals in 4 games. This is the worst out of the 16 teams that are going to advance.
Our attack is a complete joke compared to other top teams in Europe.

Yep it was like some 50 year record we broke. I feel like we score with many different players which should be noted. For instance the game Khedira got a hat trick or other games where only our midfielders/wingers score.
Says a lot about our ability/diversity in general during game play. It’s when we concede a goal our heads drop that worries me...

it's all tied together, if our attacking play sucks, then we lose the ball too often and defense comes under pressure way more than it should, if our defense sucks then we don't get the ball to attack the way we should, even worse, if we concede a stupid goal or two, we have to face an opponent happy to sit out the game 10 guys behind the ball
In fact if you look at premier league, la liga, bundesliga, ligue 1 and serie a only two teams out of like the 100 in the top five european leagues have more goals than juve. Just Man city and psg and one of these two spent half a billion dollars and plays in a mickey mouse league
Our attack has never been near as prolific as this
