Can't think of many players who played well, it was a rubbish and arrogant performance with this a low priority for us. The players knew that, the coach showed that and it panned out that way. Cuadrado was almost clown-like. Lucky Sami had no end product. Mandzukic doesn't know what a goal is anymore. Sturaro...yeah. God loves a trier but this is not AFC Wimbledon, that guy isn't showing anything other than heart.
This one always had the potential for a perfect storm because we were going to either field subs or start players with their minds elsewhere, and Torino always play it like a cup final every time, so the chances of us scraping through with half a performance are reduced. Having said that we still should have taken the lead, and invariably we win from there. Torino had a great fk and that was it, let's be real.
Our performance seemed to get gradually worse the longer it went on, the last 25 mins was some of the most clueless football you'll see us play, yet we were a bounce away from scoring. I suppose it's almost funny in a way that we should have won that game even having said all of those things. What's not funny is how we continually manage to drag Serie A out when we are trying to play three competitions. It could get very unfunny if Roma were to beat Milan and us, watching this bunch trying to put in a shadow performance in the last couple of games.
Ideal scenario would be obviously a Milan result of sorts tomorrow, but if not then a fairly routine game for us Tuesday and then give ourselves a performance in Rome next weekend and take at least a point. Just get it done with, fucking unnecessary drama.
