They are probably posturing for the refs to favor them in the remaining few matches - so as to sneak into the ECL places at the expense of Atalanta / Roma / Lazio.
With 7 rounds to go and 3 points separating 5 teams fighting for that last CL place, every detail counts. Putting enough pressure on the referees to make a favorable call or two, could very well be the difference between making it to top 4 and playing in EL next year.
They're not being petty losers. They know very well what they're doing.
I do wish we gift three points to Atalanta, Torino and Roma
