seriously? 
capello had the best squad in the world in '04-05, yet he played it so safe, that his team managed to score zero goals against two english teams on two must-win return legs.

Capello seemed content to play a rigid 4-4-2 and not having much creativity in the team
We played with 2 defensive midfielders as well so there really was not much imagination in that team apart from Nedved and Del Piero but he liked to bench Del Piero anyway
I think Allegri is a far better coach than Capello and would definitely rather watch Allegri over Capello

What are you even on about?
That 'embarassing' performance that you speak of could easily have been a 3-0 / 3-1 for us by half-time and it could have ended there if not for poor finishing from Higuain both on the one on one aswell as the missed penalty. All this are just irrelevant details to you anyway, right... Then again, did we play some Serie D team disguised as Tot'num or what? Correct me if i am wrong but as far as i recall it only finished 2-2, afterall Spurs are EPL runner-ups and UCL group winners, genuinly not as far from us in terms of individual quality as some want to make it seem like btw, and still if not for some bad luck on our side we could have easily won the game that night...
Obviously not a perfomance to remember for us as we blew a two goal lead and allowed our heads to drop after that, but all in all our display was far away from anything even remotely close to embarrassing, still a second leg to play and maybe you need to be reminded again that even in the middle of an injury crisis we still undefeated in 2018 and pretty much in contention on all three fronts as protagonists.
You really don't think before you post, do you? There's genuinly been tons of arguments aimed at your posts and you still don't seem to understand how all of this works...
It's simple, just stop labeling a whole season after one average result/display.

It's a lost cause reasoning with you tho, i think i'll just step aside from here on and won't bother responding to anymore of this useless/nonsense debates.

We were unable to string 3 passes in a row for most of the game.
Yes, we could've gone up 3-1 if Piggy hadn't fucked up but if was an embarrassing performance nonetheless. Just ask any football fan that watched the game. We were clearly outplayed.
Would you have called it embarassing if it finished let's say 2-1? Or better yet, what would you have called it if we lost 2-3 or something? Assuming we would have played the same way ofc...
Afterall it only finished 2-2, don't get me wrong i agree it was a poor perfomance but obviously it was down to a couple of indivduals which didn't step up while let's not iggnore our ongoing injury crisis either as some players were vital for our game-plan to work, under this circumstances not being able to 'string 3 passes together' while being 2-0/2-1 up and missing a penalty is far from embarrassing imo...
Am i disappointed? Obviously, but embarassed? Just no tbh, after what happened in Cardiff i simply can't look at this draw/display as being somehow embarrassed by it, i'd rather point out that the quality of both teams is highly debatable atm and probably should'v been seen as more evenly matched than some here thought, experience is on our side ofc just that i believe tonights game will tell us more about how 'embarassing' that first leg result was, if we play the same but get the win this time around i don't think anyone other than maybe @Vialli_92 gonna moan about it...
Even with this half-injured team i still think we'll go through tho.
