It's mostly the same squad that won the scudetto the year before, so the 7th place thing doesn't really work when we know that's a false position for them. Bad coaching from clowns left them there. We knew Conte would improve them, but it's not really about matching how many points they have. If they win every single game there's nothing we can do. Is Conte the messiah, Manna now a great manager because of what happens on the pitch?
Having "spent 250m" (parroting Turk is nice but 70m of that was for two players who already played for us and signed before Giuntoli days) means that there is an increase in quality in the playing squad, but did people honestly expect a quick fix changing so many players and a new coach? Be realistic, are we supposed to have 25 points already?
I'm not getting carried away with the October and November scudetto crowns, seen it all many times before, they've basically changed 3 or 4 players for similar quality, and only have Serie A, but there's obviously things for us to worry about when the team goes from Allegri v2 in the early rounds to Klopp on steroids after Bremer gets injured. We have a relatively inexperienced coach and a young team, it'll take time. This is the path the club chose. Fans won't accept this, circular discussions, etc. At least we have a forum for it, I guess.
There's nothing worse watching than an imbalanced team, and that's what I see with us. Motta has to find solutions, he has enough players to choose from.
