This is not Sarri’s first season of coaching. Then again. Americans know shit about football.
Americans make the most sense about soccer. Look at Reddit and this forum.
Big footy fans in Europe are your passionate (emotional) avg Joe type and arsenal, Dortmund fans + ultra types.
Those type of people in murica have been hardcore American football fans (till knee-gate, now they're confused). More rational muricans are ones who like soccer & tennis.

Did you miss the game against Moscow? And against Aletico we played great for 60 minutes then sloppy for the last 30 letting in 2 goals.
Generally, teams in CL play a more open game, and those games have been ideal for us so far. Big teams tend to open up & attack more. In that sense, CL has been the least of concerns.
We've been deadly on counters, not so much with possession otherwise, just small improvements.
And makes sense Sarri has been focusing on defense first like most coaches and improving players individually.

@Hængebøffer And based on previous Sarri seasons you guys were repeatedly complaining about how attacking we'll be in expense of defense (which if you paid attn to Sarri's last two seasons wasn't true).
Now you're complaining about us not scoring enough instead. What makes you happy in life exactly?
And PI, Brutto & co have been flip flopping between the two on literally a weekly basis. Facepalm & howler.
