The defense is slow, Zebina is horrible and a hack. Juve is fortuante that Milan couldn't put away any chances last night. Our defense is constantly backpedaling and falling into a compact unit inside the box. What its doing is giving the oppositions midfileders more than enough space to roam outside the box and create chances.
Also, from what I saw last night, Thuram and Cannavaro are dead tired. They are simply being reactive, making tackles and disposessing balls once the opposition is in the box, not being pro-active and actually going out there and making the tackle and pushing the ball up the field to our midfielders, who by the way, were absolutely pathetic last night, except for the first two minutes by Camoranesi. Its Mid-December, and no other defenders have had even a sniff of playing time in important matchups.
The time for trying to build cohesion is over. Now is the time to start incorporating some of the other defenders back there to keep Thuram and Cannavaro fresh.
look at the time of possesion and the amount of time spent in juve's zone in Milan's favor. The defense just falls back and lets the attack come to them, then tighten up and hope that the opposition is off the mark, which luckily Milan happened to be.
There is no doubt that Milan dominated that match, and deserved a victory. no moral victories here this week, boys and girls. Bullshit. They were playing in OUR HOUSE with 70,000 supporters in OUR HOUSE, and they made Juve look like a relegated Serie B squad.
Absolutely embarrasing. Either the midfield, and i'm talking the WHOLE midfield and Zlatan get their heads out of their collective asses or Real is going to drop 5 goals on us in February and we are once again going to be looking up at Milan in the Scudetto standings at the same time.
no chemistry between the midfield and our attackers, too much one-on-one play for Zlatan, not enough touches for DP, an exhausted duo of Thuram and Cannavaro lead to a bitter end of the season for these guys. Oh yes, keep in mind that Milan was without Stam and Maldini last night, and there was STILL nothing that could Juve could do on offense. How do you think Juve would fare without Thuran and Zambrotta for a match as big as this? Milan is also FAR superior to juve as far as depth is concerned. Actually its not even that funny when you think about it.
