WTF did Montella do to this team. We look much different now.

He did 3 man backline to accommodate players "positions" when those players seem much more comfortable with 433/442 it seems. Defense still a bit shaky but Bonbon on point.

Also - gooooaaalllll!!!!

And its 2-0.

It doesn't matter if this is a cup game this games can be harder than league games. We play like a different team compared to weeks ago. Imagine sacrificing your best player for your tactical experiments.

I feel like Silva is going to be mediocre this season, but explode next season, honestly.

He does amazing things, but he doesn't seem to get that he can't do the things he wants in Italy like he did in Portugal, or does with the National Team.

Less build-up = more bodies attacking directly = team playing much better.

It's so obvious now how useless Montella was. Absolute right decision to fire him in hindsight.

Cutrone's positioning to find the ball is excellent.

Yeah, from his first few games it was so obvious he was gifted with godly positioning :star:


Seriously fuck Montella for limiting our best two players.

Lol, ill be honest... its only now in last 2 games that i see how much he fuked us. I understand we are playing crap opponents, but still... we played even worse opponents with him and looked bad and unconvincing

Silva is tooooo fucking selfish.

he'll learn, he's got the talent and the build, just needs more PT to synergize w the team

Yeah, exactly what is was thinking. He seems bad because he constantly overdoes things and makes the wrong decisions but you can see his ability in the way he plays. Just give him playing time and get him used to his new mates (he seems like he does not fit in well with the group) and he will come good.

Also, doesn't matter how shit Montella was you have to give credit to Gattuso for coming in and immediately making the right conclusions and forcing a change this quick.
