We are so ungrateful. (my self included)
By the end of last season our squad has collapsed. The players lost faith on Max and the ambition to play for the win. Esp after the CL disqualification. How can we forget that months we have forgotten how to win.
Regardless of the coach rumors and the unrealistic expectations for Pep, we had an agreement with Sarri. We all know that switching roles, formation and tactics take a lot of time to adapt. And we were bound to pay in results and valuable points, this accommodation period.
In the champion's cup, we looked like the least prepared team and still unfocused.
We are still playing ugly football and i know how this hurts our expectations. And we look very unconvincing out there.
BUT , ask your selves, what's the most important thing for our club?
That's it! The results, the points, the wins, these attract sponsors and pay the bills.
And Sarri has surprisingly overachiever expectations there! Like club history records!
This is why we ultimately got him, this was the point of criticism in his earlier long career.
Against Atletico, we didn't have to win, we were already qualified. Last year Juve would never waste the effort. There was a characteristic lack of ambition to win such games.
But obviously smth has changed and it is not the personal egoism of CR7, or Dybs, it's collective mentality.
We only complain that we don't win in elegant way, but the other teams and fans still see us as a major threat!
The most displeased of them all, are, ironically, the Juve fans...
