Do you agree tho that progressive direct football shouldn’t be too much to ask for?

not saying we need to play like city or Bayern but some sense of attacking capability would be nice
Spring 2019 vibes all over again lol

last time you lot thought firing max to hire Sarri was a good idea :lol:

In the long run shoring up the defense first is positive. We're always going to be a successful team if we have a strong defensive identity. When we've secured the defense then we can work on the offense.

I expect us to look like a professional team in the final third. Is that too much to ask for?
Well today, we had quite a few chances in the final third. Locatelli was linking up well with Vlahovic and Morata. Our issue was more with letting Spezia get too much of the ball in our own half and not having any idea how to counter their press.

Tired legs as well. You could notice in the 2nd half the significant drop. If only he used his subs...

In the 1st half we had complete control, should have prolly scored few more. It is a huge problem when your players cant seem to catch their breath and the best you can pull off are Mirante, Ake or Soule. We are running on fumes atm, so I ll take any win coming our way without too much scrutiny. We are decimated with injuries.

There was a time when we conceded too much and too easily...although the squad has improved with vlahovic and zakaria..it has been raped with injuries, still has too many average performers...yet we are in the top 4 and only a handful of points away from the top. I'd consider this a decent effort by allegri.

Yes we need to play a nicer brand of football, but I think the objective of season 1 under allegri was to steady the ship, figure out the team and players and make sure we are playing CL football next season.

They fired Deachamps to bring in Ranieri. That should tell you everything one needs to know about the requirements set by Agnelli.

At this point if max were to be replaced this summer it should be Landucci
The Agnelli wet dream would be Italiano. He’s got the nationality advertised on his name, can’t get better than that
