I'll say it until I'm blue in the face-
1) NEDDY SHOULD BE PLAYED IN THE MIDDLE, BEHIND THE STRIKERS
2) MUTU SHOULD BE PLAYED AS A STRIKER
3) ZAMBY BACK ON THE LEFT
I thought we played ok, but our finishing left a lot to be desired.
IMO, we seem to play more as a unit when DP is in there. It just seems to me that when Zlatan is in there, he tries to do too much on his own, and gets himself isolated from the rest of the team (in a tactical sense).
We moved the ball well, and had a rhythm going, but couldnt finish. It was an improvement from recent games, but we still have some work to do
Buffon- the toughest part of his game was waking up at the end 6.5
Zambrotta- He is doing whats asked of him on his weaker side 6
Thuram- Not much for him to do, which is better for us 6
Cannavaro- Was almost perfect, except for the effort he made on net !!! 6.5
Balz- Still has some work to do, but has a bright future 6
Emerson- He was good, but I know we can still get better out of him 6.5
Vieira- Arsenal hangover ??? I EXPECT more from him 5.5
Nedved- the man is dangerous in FRONT of the net, not out on the wing...as he showed today 6
Camoranesi- I thought he had a decent game, he gave Reggina some headaches on the right side 6
Del Piero- I have to borrow Rab's analysis...I couldnt say it any better !!
"MoM, our best player in the game IMO, did score the only goal that gave us the 3points, and what a goal a crucial one. His first 20min in the first half were good, gived trezeguet couple of good passes and not to forget earning fouls, too bad he didn't score a freekick today...His second half was also good, but should have moved faster in the counter attacks...his last combination with Mutu who delivered the ball to Ibra was great. Bravo Ale"...7
Trezeguet- He tried, but couldnt capitalize. He was more lively than usual...he is hungry to score 6
Cap- I was shocked at the treatment he gave to Zlatan... I thought that was reserved only for DP ??!! Showing Zlatan that he will be treated the same as everyone else is the best move he has made this season.
