Name me one defender that made less mistakes against BATE
or one that had a better contribution upfront, than DC.
From the right side we had Giovinco's dribbling/passing and from the left side we had DC's crosses. Neddy cannot play 90' every two days anymore and when he was tired someone else had to do the running and crossing.
If not DC, then whom??
Besides Neddy was man marking Stasevich and followed him across the pitch, up and down, that was the very reason he was marking him at the goal.
Chiellini as the LCB, guards the left half of our box and he usually interceptes singlehandlly everything that comes near his sector...
There was no attacking plan, almost no players respect the existent or non existent attacking plan, positioning and tactical covering, or any traces of teamwork...
DC was really the last problem we had and it is silly to overlook the real and permanent problems/issues our team has...
If our champions were as good as DC was, then we could get a positive result,
or if our tactics had a reasoning, then we could be more efficient,
this team has no tactical plan, every does what he sees fit, we depend on individual efforts and not on teamwork and clear roles,
if our players dont even try to user the strengths, then we have absolutely no change in hell...
