I learned of it via my friend bru

Apparently Lukaku is no longer world class (until he scores again, at which time he'll be the second coming of Ibrahim Ba)

I HOPE they don't value Lukaku and send him our way the same way we got Seedorf and P!rl0. It might be a tough ask but I'll be happy to part with Columbo + ca$h :o

Allegri was an easy scapegoat for Milan fans and management.

He played with Poli, Matri, Birsa, Urby, Saponara and such players, had half of the team with injuries (El Shaarawy, Montolivo, Constant, De Sciglio) and was forced to play Berlu?s 4-3-1-2 and then was blamed for not reaching top 3.

True. But prior to that he managed to lose scudetto with a team way superior to Contes Juve. At least for those who go by the narrative that Contes Juve wasn't that bad and he as a coach not that average.

I mean yeah, Muntaris goal can be used as a scapegoat for not winning the 2nd scudetto, but for me that's too easy. So in the end the question is: did Allegri loose the 2nd scudetto or Conte win it? Who's been the better/worse coach based on that year?

Anyone saying he?s a defensive liability is just regurgitating commentator?s hot takes. He doesn?t just have the pace, he?s the fastest..not just strong, the most strong. also the most handsome

No, we, aka 'the commentators', are watching the game for the love of this sport, not for 'the most handome guys with the cute asses'. A small, but important nuance, partner.

I don't even know who else said this about Theo, but it's obvious. I never said Theo is not strong or not very fast. He is fast, and he is strong but that's not enough to be called a good defender, OBVIOUSLY. Apparently my standards for a good defender are a little bit more demanding than yours. I'm aiming at his 1on1 confrontations against good attackers. Theo gets exposed every time. His 1o1 performance against Hakimi was shameful. We were not even 15-20 minutes far in the game against Inter and he got humiliated already 2-3 times.

yep, he's not that good at dribbling and other stuff a LW does... it would be just a waste to move him, idk why people are still discussing this idea

Not necessarily, he will adjust and develop other aspects of his game over time. Even Abate improved his defense over time and we saw it when he was played as CB.

We discuss the idea that he is more a winger than a fullback. He is a good player.

People not liking Theo, Romagnoli, Hauge etc.. why don't you support some other team?
Click to expand...

Romagnoli is on the level of Kaladze (with his knee exploded). Need to improve.
Theo can play, is a good player. Defensively needs to be more focused.

And also Rafael Le?o needs to drop with that Balotelli attitude sometimes.

fullbacks in 2020 that are great defensively :lol: even CBs are hard to find.

True. My favourites nowdays are Milenkovic and Diego Carlos.

Conte is overrated as hell.

Theo Hernandez has immense potential, but he must improve not only his defensive skills but also, the ability to build from behind without relying on his speed.

Perfect.

Would be unfair if the France NT played every game with Balon d'Or Theo "Handsome" Hernandez playing. No other team would stand a chance, and neither would the players wives after being on his boat.

Congo, if you adopt Theo then he can naturalize as a citizen of your adoptive country (Italy, of course) and play for them?

Well, Mourinho came basically mid season and had to deal with the team in a disastrous negative spiral and had regularly missed his best players, especially Kane and later on Son (at the same time). There's only little he could do with all those circumstances.

I think this season is the 1st season you can base a fair evaluation of Mous work.

Oh I dont blame him for last - its the start and results against some of the opposition that has made me notice. I thought after his last few stints he was just going through the motions and resting on his past successes which he loves to throw in peoples faces at the first sign of trouble.

2012 Milan had important weaknesses: garbage fullbacks, soon to retire players, Boateng, Seedorf and Robinho getting worse every week lost Cassano due to heart issues, Pato due to injuries, signed Maxi Lopez as a winter reinforcement and had to play CL too while Juventus didn't have to play any european competition.

Hey, don't be so disrespectful !

Seriously tho, the All or Nothing doku made me rethink a little bit about the man behind the fassade and the picture medias like to paint him. He's a straight into your face type, but honest, fair and loyal to his players. Sure, he's also a little bit cocky, and if you find out how to trigger him he can quickly turn into an asshole.

I think his stint at ManU has been one of his worst especially in terms of how he made ManU play. But then again the coaches before or after him didn't look that much better so I don't know.

Chelsea has been a little bit up and down.

His Real team was one pretty enjoyable to watch, especially because it was one of the first Real teams I witnessed that didn't just went for the names for the sake of the names but actually tried to build a cohesive unit.

Now let's see what he does with Tottenham.

You make the 2012 squad sound way inferior to what it actually was. Especially with Zlatan in his prime (I don't count Zlatan in baguette league as his prime).

I still think that team was way superior to Contes Juve, who the year before ended 7th place. I guess Conte just isn't that average as some people want him to paint. He took a team that ended the season 7th and went on to win the league three times in a row.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic on Emil Roback:

"He is the future of Sweden, I can tell you now. He is a player of a completely different level."
