They don’t enjoy our “brand” 
inter of football. Can’t stand that term.

We played really good footie in allegris first season, and was by no means “champagne football”. It was a very defensive but composed counterattacking team and we excecuted it marvelously, only to lose to a superior barcelona.
Now, we are all over the place with our formations and gameplan.
We are pulling things because we are juventus and we have individual and collective quAlity. But theres a big room for improvement and the problem here is exactly that. Bar injuries, this team can be much better, it should be playing better.
I would like to see a better balance
I think we are too conservative with tactics and transfers
Should be more ruthless with our best players and not let them go so easily
Should be more aggressive with our attack and not have to park the bus every game
I want to see high pressing up the pitch or at the very least a counter attack if Allegri insists on parking the bus

Yes and no. It's pretty awesome that we've won the league every time since 2012. But we have sold so many star players in the meantime and tbh I get the feeling we didn't capitalize enough on our success. We built in safety margins (which is sensible), but never really took a risk by trying to hold on to key players or buying superstars (apart from Higuain, Dybala also came at a 'normal' fee).
And because of this it's pretty obvious that our team right isn't strong enough to win the CL. In a very real way we have regressed significantly compared to last season. So why be happy?

Allow me to rephrase. Yes we're appreciative, but we can't rest on our laurels. As things stand, we could very well end the season empty handed; we must continue to live in the present. Naturally, fans are fickle. When you're winning, you always expect more.
On another note, PSG, Bayern, and City are a lock to win their respective domestic titles anyway, barring a calamitous collapse.
Yeh pretty much what i would like.
If we can keep our current defensive composure, but get more aggresive in our offensive game, i would not object.
Or at the very least return to the 2015 plan, of defending compact and using fast players like morata to counter. Now we dont even have someone who can counter... or we do in costa but we dont use him like that anyways.
I think he is referring to next season. This one ,our midfield is incomplete or injured. We need more players or replace the ones we do not need.
But for next season i expect a different approach from our midfield and team, the one he mentions.

Last year Bianconero81, Vialli92, and others were bitching in the Autumn about how there was next to no possibility we'd get past CL Rof16, QFs at best, and that we were terrible, our midfield and attack disastrous, Dani Alves was garbage and past it, Allegri was a pussy and coward, and so on. Then, lo and behold, like every year under Allegri, we found form in January, and absolutely dominated for the next 4.5 months, before a single disastrous half in the CL final. We were scoring a ton, creating a ton of chances, playing attractive attacking football in our 4-3-1-2, but the second half implosion apparently erases all that, and now revisionist bullshit from these posters says it was ugly, poor, football, with only individual goals, and no chances created, and as soon as we played good opposition, we got beat badly. I guess there was only 1 good team in the entirety of the footballing world last year.

Yes. After saying the same thing for seven years.

The most annoying part.
It makes me wonder how some of these posters survived the first 5 years post-calciopoli.
