How? Is it really that hard to understand when you swap out several of your core starters?
I mean, this isn't exactly a secret. Why do we act like it is?
It is hard to understand why you would displace the worlds best midfielder and not replace him adequately when you lost two other important elements of the team for free. Our mercato and preseason have set the tone for the rest of the season. Allegri started with pressure of not knowing what the pieces of the puzzle were, and he's transferred some of that to the team. It's crazy with how little urgency and lack of composure some of these guys play, and sadly, the mercato didn't play to Allegris strengths either. He's a tactician, not a man manager. He doesn't build teams from scratch.
I can always understand, accept and propagate the need for change, and revival and evolution. But I absolutely disagree with creating situations that we had control over. We were in a position of power, which means we could consciously control how much of the damage we could limit in this scenario, but instead chose to overhaul the team overnight. Poor planning. And that has a knock on effect too. No CL next year and Pogba probably leaves on his terms too. And that's the money we use to rebuild further.
