can we ban for negativity?
I get it
You're accustomed to disappointments and you won't give yourself much room for hope in order to protect yourself.
after that half u can see why now?
Atalanta's success highlights how unambitious & scared most Italian teams play.
They get overwhelmed and take the typical Italian "precautionary measures", which is just where Gasperini wants them.
Zagreb, Shaktar and City don't have this provincial Italian mentality.
They're used to going in hard on their domestic opponents no matter what.
Atalanta aren't like Pep's Barca, where the worst thing you could do was to try beating them at their own game.
If your attack is good enough then you can go toe to toe and punish this Atalanta side HARD.
This is why they're also struggling against Lazio of all teams.
Say what you want about Simone, but he has a very un-Italian proactive approach and his unusual priorities created the most lethal attack in Serie A.
Atalanta also struggled badly against Spalletti's and Pioli's Inter's intensive approach, before their fatigue kicked in later in the seasons.
Arsenal fans still talk about the EL games against Milan, in particular the rare away win .
They still can't believe we sat back and allowed Xhaka to do his thing in peace at San Siro.
