Interesting.

It seems something clicked finally. Of course it helps a lot to have a possible WC striker leading the line, but the rest of the players responded well, specially moody dudes like my man morata and Dybala, both had excellent games.

lets see how this develops.

No, it wasn't a fantastic performance. It was a decent performance. They dominated us in possession in our own ground (53%), that's already not great. Using the one shot on target stat is also disingenuous and a poor metric to use when deciding whether or not we won comfortably, especially when you take into account that they had 13 shots in total, just 2 less than us.
The reality is that we didn't win comfortably. We were sloppy at times. Am I happy with the performance in general? Of course, I never denied that, as much as the fanboys here like putting words in my mouth. I just don't think it was a flawless performance. Apparently it's too much to ask for improvement, because criticising the manager is considered blasphemy these days. If this was Pirlo or Sarri on the other hand I wouldn't have recieved so much vehement opposition.
53% :lol:

53% is dominating possession now. From the same retards who bitched about how our 57% possession rate in Allegri’s last couple seasons wasn’t close to good enough. :lol2:

Good decision by Allegri to go all in with the new players. Loca will add some more quality in the middle and a trio of Loca-Arthur-Zak could be a very balanced midfield.

We’re looking much more of a team now, credit has to go to Allegri and I hope we can put Atalanta to the sword on sunday to try to consolidate a top 4 spot. We’ve not beaten a top 4 team this season so let’s start now

They dominated and had numerous goalscoring opportunities. Only luck stopped us losing. :lol3:

Even the sites that track goalscoring chances and/or xGoals have Verona as creating zilch. But Tuz’s Conte fanboi knows best.
As if Conte is famous for his possession football. If we had 70% possession, the same people would complain that we didn’t do enough with the possession we had. You can’t reason with some people, their mind is made up.

Seems like English isn't your fortè, that's something I already gathered from the way you write.
If they had 53% possession, that means they were superior to us in that respect. Does that make sense? Or do you need it explained to you in another way?

You wrote dominated. That would constitute far higher percentage of possession on their part. 53% is irrelevant and doesn't tell you anything considering who the better side was. In general possession stat is meaningless. What is important are chances we created, which last night we created in abundance, while allowing very little in return in front of our goal. Verona didn't have a single clear cut chance. Based on the way you writte and pick fights with everyone on this forum, tells me all I need to know, what a sad person you are.

I didn't come for anyone, you were the one who got triggered with my initial comment because I said that it was a good but not flawless performance. What an idiot :lol2:

That possession stat is not completely meaningless. We looked really bad at playing out the back/retaining possession for a few spells of the game, mostly in the first half and the beginning of the second half.

The good news is that we managed to break out of it and started playing better but this is Hellas Verona we're talking about. Lots to improve if we want to stand a better chance against good teams.
