The only reason I think he took off Marchisio and Diego was to rest them for the midweek game... But he almost cost us the match with those subs, we looked absolutely clueless after the substitutions...

99 times out of 100, those subs would have cost us the game. Everyone on these forums knows they weren't ballsy, just plain stupid. We won the game DESPITE Zac's subs, not thanks to them.
If we ended up 3rd and we reached the Europa League final, I see no reason why we shouldn't keep him. His relationship with the players are great and that's sth we lacked for a long time...

The Candreva-Diego sub was like for like, so no problem there. Even though Candreva is less gifted than Diego... Marchisio for Sissoko was more stop gap than anything... That sub was the reason why we looked clueless... Sissoko looked clueless as fuck and Melo had to do all the work...

Thats the problem I see here. Zach has always been at least average while coming in during mid season. Give him a full season and he's most likely to screw up big time... So no thanks. Get me a real coach.

We took two more technically gifted players and put on two less technically gifted ones. Hadn't we had Del Piero out there, no way we would have scored.
Even if Zaccheroni manage to get us a CL spot, win us the Europa League and get Salihamidzic to play football, which is a lot, he shouldn't be our coach next season.
I'm not giving him credit, because all three wins were wins in result only, we could have easily lost all those three games (and we could have lost the two drawn games, as well). There is not anything to give him credit for, yet.

Well if reaching a Europa League final with this team, that looked like missing on that same competition next season, isn't enough to change your mind about Zacc then I don't know what will...
But still, its all assumptions he got us nowhere yet but im optimistic about this guy.
