That awkward moment when you want your team to lose so we can change coach.

Here's our striker situation (Wikipedia)
Kalinic 3 goals in 12 games (25%)
Silva 6 goals in 14 games (43%)
Cutrone 5 goals in 15 games (33%)


Notes:

>Silva's goals are inflated via playing in Europa but he's the only striker who can make a shot for himself.
>Cutrone has been our best off the ball mover but will again be completely anonymous if he doesn't get service.
>Kalinic can be useful if he can hold up the ball for someone to take a shot. He might be our worst finisher.



Cutrone -Silva up front pls. Then Kalinic can come on for whomever has been more shit at the 70th minute.

If Bontella FINALLY tries to spam crosses all game then I'd say Kalinic has to start.

Play the 4-4-2 for fuck's sake Bontella...I don't care if Bonucci gets benched.

Abate----Musa----Roma-----RR
Suso---Kessie---Biglia-----Borini
----Cutrone---------Silva------

Silva needs continuous playing time... don't drop him immediately after going a game or two goalless

You're also forgetting that Silva is admired and is being encouraged by none other than possibly one of the greatest football players in the history of the sport. Not taking that factor into serious consideration is like being on the admissions council at MIT and throwing out an application from a 3.5 GPA physics student even though they have a recommendation from Stephen Hawking himself.

We should just stop making these match threads for a while. It's depressing

We can still play the 442 with Bonucci. He has played well in both 3 and 4 man systems. We just need to get back to basics, pick a formation and play it properly.

Milan having to drop points in order for le coach to be gone is not fair to Milan. Milan will get points because this group deserves better than the 8th position in the domestic league. Milan will pull through with good team efforts. Le coach is not a part of this team, of this club.

Montella risks getting sacked if he doesn't beat Sassuolo. Gattuso until the end of the season is the most probable replacement [GdS]

I thought Montella was meant to be sacked unless he beat AEK?

And some matches before.

I won't believe he's gone until he's gone.

I'd rather montella signs an extension if it means gattuso taking over.

the team is in crisis, why give it to someone with little experience and risk breaking ties?

he's doing well with the primavera, keep him there and let him improve in peace.

by reading montella's interviews I don't think he will change formation again. at least not for the sassuolo match.
the main problem right now is not what kind of formation to play but the team knowing how to play that formation.
if changing to another formation will mean more time until the players learn how to play it then it makes no sense.
change formation if players have a clear image of what each of them has to do on the pitch

Hope the ball enters the opponents box in the first 45 min.

Who knows if we are really really lucky we can even try to shoot this time, i know it sounds crazy and all..

Shooting was never our problem , We have the best % of shots on goals...

We suck at finishing,

We had 0 balls in the opponent box in the first half vs AEK.

Yes we suck at finishing but i think the list is much longer than just that.

Right now we suck at pretty much everything.

That first half performance was so bad it will be long remembered!
