I loved the guy but hated his attitude, I am just glad we have Max now and wouldn't swap him for any coach in the world right now. Never thought i would hear myself say that because i used to think he was terrible at Milan. I never rated him until i seen what he could do with us.
Don't be ridiculous.
His defensive tactics were almost flawless. Very organized and collective like, the back 4 worked together at almost all times. I'm starting to believe we stand a chance of surprising everybody and going much further than expected.
At matches like this you see why he's better than Conte ever was. Keep it up, boss!
Wow I didn't expect a statement like this from you tbh. If we go past Dortmund we need to get another 'easier' rival (some other team than Madrid, Barca, Bayern or Chelsea) - otherwise we'll be out. We're still not good enough IMO as we still can't keep the possession comfortably. We're too far behind on technical level in comparison to most teams that are left in this competition. We still look shaky with the ball and individual errors like Chiellini's one happen too often.
Overall we took a huge step forward in comparison to what we presented under Conte in Europe though. I didn't expect Allegri to do so well and he actually did things I never thought he'd be capable of doing - improving our possession play (when being pressed) but also our counter-attacking ability which is very important in Europe and
huge asset to us. I thought he'd refuse to adapt to BVB just like Conte kept doing but did actually the opposite. He prepared the match perfectly and can't be blamed for Chiellini's blunder whatsoever. The only thing I didn't like was starting Pirlo and forcing Vidal to play as AM. Other than that he really did his homework.
Cerci in the national team... he has been a nomad for over a year now

el shwarma has been on and off with injuries for years again. As i said it doesnt really stretch beyond zaza and giovinco so i dont see how its Conte's fault.
Ironically prandelli tried and tested the 4-3-1-2 and 4-3-3 with Italy and looked terrible whilst I can recall members of this forum hoping that Italy would switch to a 3-5-2 or similar as it suited them better, namely when Italy played Spain
Dude you're wrong. To prove Conte's stubbornness I need to drop just one name: Veratti. He's the biggest Italian talent out there and he still doesn't see any room for the guy in his team.
I'm thankful to Conte for what he did as he was amazing here but he left on his own with conviction this team couldn't go any further. So far it looks like he was wrong and the only one being unable to do it was him.
If it was Conte on our bench last night winning this game you'd be fapping like there was no tomorrow. Since it's Allegri you keep on complaining. Try to be more objective.
One cannot but notice how this team improved by leaps and bounds compared to last season when it comes to European matches. We lacked confidence above anything else and Allegri was the right man to instill confidence among our ranks. His tactics and player selection has been spot on, for the most part of this season. I must say that I really didn't expect us to win last night. Continual underwhelming performances in Europe made its toll. After we conceded it looked like a typical Juve's European game, nice start and a good team effort only for someone to make ridiculous error that will ultimately compromise the objective. Was rather surprised that we hit back and scored another one before half time. After that second goal I really think, or like to think that our players started believing more in themselves, in their abilities, as their talent was never questionable.
