Why does it take him a bad 45 minutes before he figures how to set up for the second half? It's not even a one off, it's every match. That is the problem. Play crap for 90 minutes then it's the players, but even against PSG we did great for a while in the second half until defensive substitutions. That's all Allegri. Nothing to do with signings or expectations.
I say it every match thread that Vlahovic needs a strike partner and Allegri does it, only in the second half. McKennie isn't a winger either. The guy is plain dumb.
The nicest way to say it is that this is a rebuild for Conte, then Allegri comes in to take us higher. Not the other way round. He has his qualities but this is the wrong moment for Allegri to be here.
