and also if I may say something, now I can clearly see the inherent weakness in our attacking strategy, our players positioned WAY TOO FORWARD on the pitch; in europe that works because :
a. opponents perhaps haven't noticed it.
b. more open matches.
but in serie a league, where teams are :
a. more tactically aware of our play.
b. rather get a point than lose.
against serie a teams that defend deep against us, positioning our players high on the pitch don't really work and rather easily repelled... also add the fact that most of our players cannot beat defenders simply worsen the situation, we are limited to touch passing play without any players especially attacking players capable of doing that... this is almost the same exact weakness capello team had
1. need attacking talents that can beat defenders.
2. need attacking talents that can play touch passing.
3. need attacking talents that can shoot from distance.
please.
