It’s like watching a midfield trio of Bertolacci-Montolivo-Poli. Bunch of headless ball chasers. Pathetic.

Adli, Pobega, Reijnders showed balls and some fitness. Throw a Ben in there and you have a good midfield.

I was refering to starting trio of Pobega-Reijnders-Musah. Adli completely changed it. Then it was more vertical and attacking. Reijnders will be wasted playing DM, he needs to press.

I understand now.

What about Pioli’s new record? Tell me your opinion, PioliOut?

I was pissed two months ago, but I think Pioli is doing fine without Maldini.

I never backed that PioliOut trend. Last thing we need now is another upset by sacking coach. We have revamped squad and need stability for these new lads to settle properly.
