Don't tell me you are on the bandwagon that our squad is shit.
context is important. it's shit compared to what we're used to, and also unbalanced as hell.

anyway, gasperini is doing a great job, his squad has been punching above their weight for years.

If anything, Gasp would love Benta. Just a brainless athlete that goes up and down like a train.
They are either mentally fragile, unprofessional or plain bad.

Benta literally plays for the opponent.

Dare I say, if we win the next 4 games and some results go our way we could be 8 pts off the top with Napoli in first place going into the winter break. And our first game back is Napoli at home.

And it doesn't even have to be anything dramatic. Draw vs Sassuolo today, and draw vs Atalanta and Milan. They have a tough schedule

Don’t tell me you are on the Bentancur is good bandwagon. :lol:

He literally gives the opponents a great scoring chance every single match. And is guaranteed to be on yellow card and unable to properly go into challenges for the second half of most matches.

Atalanta is too strong. Djimsiti-Demiral-Palomino pressing at half way line is too strong. How can we compete.
Have you gone completely off your rocker now? This butthurt about Allegri?

Atalanta scored after a completely boneheaded Morty giveaway and defensive meltdown. Are you honestly suggesting they outplayed us though? Match probably should have ended 1-1, if not Juve winning. Atalanta had 40% possession, 7 shot attempts (only 1 on goal was their goal). Juve had 59% possession and 15 shot attempts. We just didn’t finish. Put Ronaldo or any other top striker into this team and we have over 30 pts right now.

We all expect Allegri to do better. What we’re seeing from him is not good enough. But this squad is also nowhere near good enough either. This isn’t a scudetto winning squad anymore. With just a couple smart signings, and allegri getting his shit together it could be, but currently no. Not at all.

Our squad is not a slam dunk scudetto winner like it used to be but I don't see any that are CLEARLY better. If you prefer others, it's defensible, but I don't see any squads where you are like wow we cannot compete with THAT.

Fucking hell, it still seems impossible that Scamacca will not turn out well. How can it be possible with that skill and size.

Nah. Inter has a clearly better and more balanced squad. I think we should be competitive with most anyone else. Give this squad Ronaldo and his goals and I would expect us to be right up there for scudetto. We lack a consistent finisher right now. Our midfield is very poor, and to get back amongst the European elite we need that fixed, but for just Serie A alone, a prolific finisher would do the trick.

This. Ive always thought he had something about him. Put him in a good team surrounded by good players and I'm sure he'll thrive. Future azzurri starter I hope.

Underwhelming considering Sassuolo almost won, but I'll take it. One down, two more to go. Ruiz and Koulibaly left the field injured too
