So many empty seats you'd think the Atalanta fans would come out for their team

Leo should promise 2-3 primavera snakes if Genoa beats Atalanta.

Genoa will be safe from relegation and get a few players to groom for us for a couple years. :D

Well, we HAVE to win tonight then. Let's hope Inter pull off 0 wins in their last 3 games. If they manage to lose/draw all for a maximum 3 pts, we can overtake (would give them +7 on us currently) with 3 wins.

Else, Atalanta have to lose to Juve/their other game and we win all 3.

I've only watched a couple minutes but Zapata really seems to have grown into something very serious.

Obviously a couple of minutes can't tell but they sure strengthen those claims

Atalanta are 2 up, controlling the game, looking for the third. If only Milan were capable of that.

I will never trust Gasperini's players at other clubs.

The biggest example of this is Bertolacci.

If this was Milan, Pandev would already have a hattrick by now.

So what you're saying is we must get Gasperini, he can perform miracles with shite players..which we happen to have an abundance off.

Gattuso would have parked the bus after the going 1 up, only to draw or loose in the last 10 minutes of the game.

Ilicic is technically better than any player we have. Gasperini's teams are all about his system. It was easy to see Bertolacci was a bum.

Unfortunately it doesn't imply that.

I like Gasperini as a person a lot and Atalanta is the freshest breath of air in Serie A but rather than his tinkering alone a lot of it comes down to the length of the project and more importantly the circumstances. I.e the developed mentality within the team that came from being a smaller team that has beaten big teams and having successful European campaigns as well as the rather extraordinary CL opportunity that they've got.

Football is always at least 50% mindset
