Many played worse than conti today :zlatan, hakan, paq, donna and the cb. Conti is much improved recently the whole team was poor

i think kjaer did really well today. no mistakes and won almost all of his duels. conti just pisses you off like calabria because of consistent brainfarts

I think we do, they only scored 2 because of both donna's fuck ups. Did dona have anything to do in the second half apart from his second goal?

Its expected that napoli dominate most teams tbh, but we werent exactly under seige

If you told me we'd take 10 from 12 vs Roma, Napoli, Lazio and Juve at the restart I'd have thought you were crazy. Dropping 2 points from those games is very good, just need to keep in up in the run-in for 5th.

Exactly my sentiment.

theo

romagnoli/kjaer (take your pic)

kessie


rebic did quite good throught the game. shoutout to bonaventura for gifting us a point with his tenacity

The central defenders were sloppy as well. We were lucky to not concede more

The grit to keep fighting, while fatigued against a team that you need to be very alert against was pleasing.

Look, I hope Rangnick can maintain that because I'd argue team spirit and having players motivated and on side is massive. Some of the best managers ever like ancelotti and Ferguson were far from tactical wizards. But their players adored them...

Parma have been on bad form since the restart. Bologna and Sassuolo after that won't be easy. Both have been strong.

Kessie and Bennacer have played non stop. Don't agree with that. Krunic should start the next game.

Will be on a high after two late equalisers. Who Plays RW? Maybe Leo?

This was a difficult game, as expected Napoli in a good form and they pressed a lot. Now the games against top clubs are over, and we play weaker teams.

With the exception of Atalanta you mean, the other 5 we should aim for 12 points. As long as we're not losing 5-0 to Atalanta I'll be content.

at milan. im sorry i just cant see his face anymore. never had such dislike for milan player since cerci.

even though benanncer was dumb as fuck to no look pass a ball to a player who isnt even looking himself. imagine tht costs us the game.


good result, meh performance

To be fair to him, he?s had a tough Milan journey. Only one fit season.

we were bombarded the whole first half, could have easily conceded three. we scored with the only shot we took. none of the goals were donna's fault. first one was tricky ball which he had to react very quickly and second one took deflection.

pioli has to take most blame rather than the players. he took whole first half to readjust the team.

Let Castillejo eat the small clubs.

You know how this song goes. When sum1 is missing we wish they were playing but when we see them play we wish they werent. How many times have we all said Samu is an impact player... 10/20mins. I bet next game we call for Hakan (if he's not playing).

We need better players!

Leao is awful he adds nothing to the team he will never score again in his career

lets hope this jinx means he scores the winner


He did more than Ibra.

So yeah, as I predicted we ran very quick out of ideas offensively speaking. But 7 points out of possible 9 after the triple of death "Lazio-Juve-Napoli"? I'm totally okay with that.

Napoli as expected been the toughest of those three as Gattusos Napoli really checks basically all boxes of teams we typically struggle a lot. And damn is this Mertens strong.

Hope to see 6 points out of Parma and Bologna. Then there will be Sassuolo and Atalanta back to back. After that double-clash we'll probably know if we'll gonna play EL or not.
