Certain individuals can lift the team. I think Vidal and Licht can do it for us. After the international break, both are playing in 2nd gear. If they get back to their crazy running and fighting mode again, they can lift the others with them. Mirko's absence is also hurting us. Even when he's terrible, the man just moves so intelligently. He's like another playmaker, and at the same time allows the midfielders to penetrate and to act as a third striker.
I'm sure we can do it and we can get back to our level soon. But we must do it soon, because another month like this and we'll be out of CL. Another month of this, and we'll have to chase the leader in serie A. I'm hoping that when we look back at this period of the season, we'll consider ourselves lucky that we won so many points while playing pretty bad.
