We are having an injury crisis. Also, Motta somewhat stupidly showed us that the youngsters called up against Lecce are far from the level we need.
It's really hard to implement any tactics without crucial players. Swapping Bremer for Danilo as an example, has dropped our quality massively, but the tactics stay the same. Up front it's different, you need wingers out wide with the ability to beat their player and cross to someone who can head or tap in, in which case movement is the key. Only Vlahovic and Milik do that in the squad.
Also, Motta can't help if players like Koopmeiners suddenly can't shoot anymore. That is on him to improve himself. Professionals will put in the extra time and if he has pride in the shirt, he'll give it 100% every game. Talent without the work ethic means nothing so Luiz needs to step up or go back to Birmingham.
What we saw in the draw against Inter was real progress, and if we could iron out the defensive errors, we would easily be fighting for the title. We can do it and much more, I have seen plenty of good. We just need to scrape some wins until players get fit again.
