Maldini if you’re smart as the claim you are pls buy good players and fire Pioli and hire Juric. He has shown time and time again that with a good team he can do much more. Pioli’s tactics is just so freaking terrible.
Lol.
Should have just started Lazetic, Adli, and Bozzolan.
Got beat by a team who played with 10 men for 50 minutes, wtf
Pioli is trash
Bad summer signings period. Awful. No depth whatsoever. Once 1 or 2 players are tired or injured from staring 11, thats it game over. Wasted 35 mil on a useless player, when we could have gotten someone else with a much btter contribution. What the hell were the scouts watching. Maldini has pulled some great signings in the past but he messed this one up, and the other loaners. We started the season good because starting 11 was fresh and injury free. Once they got tired we started going downhill. This slump started before world cup. Hopefully, we can hang… Read more »
Top 4 should not be too much of a problem. Scudetto is very much in trouble.
CDK will be fine man. Give him time. I’m sure you were also bashing on Tonali when he first joined. OR better yet, i’m sure you were arguing for the sale of Leao and keeping Hauge. Not everyone can be a Kalulu that joins and performs the next day. And that’s the problem. We needed immediate contribution and our mercato was future contribution. Origi was the only one they thought was immediate. I believe in CDK, Adil and Pobega. IF by this time next year they still suck, i’d give in to your argument. Until then, They are following Tonali… Read more »
Though the result is frustrating but I prefer we are out of this competition..I see it as a distraction considering the fact that we don’t have depth. All the signings are contributing nothing yet.
It’s a loss which is never good for mentality. But it is just Coppa, we have Seria A and CL to focus on.
This might sound funny but I am glad Milan got knocked out last night (though it is embarrassing considering the circumstances surrounding the match). Now Pioli has Seria A and UCL to focus on, let’s see if he intends to finish the season trophyless
i’m with you. Not to say Coppa Italia is a lesser competition but i’m glad our loss comes here. Perhaps it’s the kick in the butt management needs to realize we need a few (not saying all) just a few READY NOW players. Adil, CDK, Vrankxx, Lazetic, Pobega to some extend are next year players. We needed ready now to tackle all competitions.
Kessie is been thrown out from Barca in 6 months and can be a good catch, hope Leao watches this !
