I've never understood the focus from people on the 'dai, dai, dai' thing.

I know that when I'm at a game and I see a player has the space to drive forward with the ball, I'm likely to be bawling something to the same effect.
Milan at their historic worse, with the players looking completely clueless in every direction, the only thing you could notice was Allegri looking hopeless and screaming dai dai. It became quite ridicolous to witness, shortly followed by them choking or getting destroyed at home by yet another small team. When dai is used properly it makes sense, in the tragicomic state that was his Milan in their awful season, kinda signaled part of the farce.

"Allegri should work on his substitutions"


We are 1-0 up, Malmo isnt doing a goddamn thing against our organisation whilst we keep going ahead. Wich is kinda what we want.
Then why on earth change that ?

Substitutes in priority games, are a means to change the tactic when needed.

If you are ahead and you controll the game, it means you are doing it right and shouldnt change the tactic

I must agree. We all want to see new players or a new system but in this game in the second half we were ahead, playing good football (yet wasteful) and a substitution would be a mistake at that point. Especially that Allegri is still not very familiar with the players he has on the bench. Morata was injured the whole preaseason, Coman is very young, Romulo didn't play much and then there is Giovinco. After scoring the first goal we needed guarantees and the only guarantees that Allegri knows so far are those that were on the field as he hasn't had the time to test other players yet. Same goes for the system. Conte did exactly the same thing in his first games at Juventus.

There is no way he could take out Tevez for Coman only up 1-0. Morata for Llorente is ok to me but Tevez can't leave the field in a CL game until the match is settled.

I wouldn't go as far as to say Juve pressed.

However, they didn't retreat and cede territory and possession after going 1-0 up, so there was less danger of Malmo sneaking a goal simply by virtue of spending time in and around Juve's penalty area.

we did not cede ground to FCK last year either and i am pretty sure we had more shots on gol last year too, but some people prefer to lie to themselves to feel better

Subbing Llorente for Morata isn't changing tactics, just a pair of fresh legs who might or might not add/try something that we still haven't tried up front at that point.

In fact i'm glad he did the sub at all, we got a goal because of that.

I want to see more of Morata.
