Yup.
"Why do they stop attacking when we take the lead" is always fun to read from people who seemingly never have played 11-a-side football and don't seem to understand the psychological impact of a goal not only for the coach but especially the players, on both sides.
In June-November RnB were praising Pioli because we didn't stop attacking after taking the lead, as if the difference between now and then is that Pioli changed his mind about these things.
But this is a very odd and ironic case where a loss is attributed to this "scared Italian thinking".
I was pissed off at Pioli for the complete opposite reason.
We had a bright start, but the intensity dropped even before Hakan's goal.
The front 4 couldn't sustain the press - and our sloppiness in possession lead to a lot of exhausting end-to-end action.
It only got worse as minutes wore on in the first half.
The 2nd half started in the same manner as the first. We were the better team and had plenty of opportunities to extend the lead, but this time it didn't render in any goals.
Then fatigue kicked in again, and a few of the front 4 stopped tracking back.
Subs could've fixed this, but they only made it worse. The biggest passenger and worst performer stayed on(Leao). Pioli kept the unbalanced 4-4-2 by bringing in an unfit, 35yo Mandzukic instead of one of the young, fit wingers that can actually track back. As if that's not bad enough, there also seems to have been frequent misunderstandings between Mandzu, Krunic and Leao over who gets to cover where, because Dalot was often left all on his own on the left flank.
Terribly managed game by Pioli, but not because of "FUU typical defensive Italian coach defending lead". He was lacking typical Italian pragmatism if anything.

ur nothin but a defenseless little victim...scared to even say where u live
I've mentioned or hinted at where I live on many occasions. The last time was just a day or two ago here in the commode, when someone posted a fake quote of Ibra regarding Super League.
I live in the town that he can't return to(Malmo). Not sure what you're planning to do with that information. But since you seem very upset with me, I promise to give you a hug if you pay a visit.
imo its very suspicious that im a huge cutrone pioli samu hakan calabria hater and u are a huge cutrone pioli samu hakan calabria fan
and im a big silva fan and u are a super big silva hater
that is like wow...super coincedental
u see people that is the behaviour of some seniour members on this board
reminds me of kindergarten
that is how hate gets formed in some peanuts,,,they keep reading samu this sam that pioli this and they will burst

Given our form in 2021 I'm not especially scared of meeting Lazio, Juve and Atalanta. It's not like we shine against the worst teams either, but on our day we play good football. It would be sweet to prove a good season against the best teams.
I still very much believe in top 4.

#ACMilan are interested in the young talent (born in 2004) Vasco #Walz. Rossoneri have offered 3-years contract to the #BVB midfielder, but #BorussiaDortmund are working a new contract. The player and his agent will take a decision in the next few days. #transfers

Didn't we sign him a month ago?
We need to step up the next game otherwise we will shit our pants because of the pressure.
By the looks of it, seems like Juve are more likely to finish outside of top 4 than Napoli. We either step up or let the whole world laugh at us.

To people ridiculing members who are upset/angry/disillusioned over ESL followed by that Sassuolo loss:

I've a feeling 10 points from 18 is enough to cross the finish line. Napoli are 3.5 points behind us with 6 much easier games but I see them dropping at least 5 points. If we beat Lazio, that's a huge 6-point swing in our favor - even a draw is something - and then Juve/Atalanta anything helps again. Just end the season strong is all we can ask at this point. It's CL or disaster.

Ridiculing?
Agreed. 10 points should be enough. 3 wins against Benevento, Torino and Cagliari + 1 draw should be our minimum goal.
In order to drop out of top 4, Napoli would need to win 14 points out of 18 which does not seem likely to me. They are in top form now, but it won't last forever.
The loss against Sassuolo man
Could've had CL in the bag if we could control the game. But, no, we had to concede 2 goals from a kid that had 2 goals in his previous 20+ games. His first career brace

Yeah, I'm most bitter over this loss and the Spezia one - purely due to how we lost the game ourselves. Just handed over the points. It's really disappointing and could cost us CL if we don't get a grip.

There are also some people in this forum who are happy certain players are not performing.
So what?
What is worse? Simply not being depressed for the loss or celebrating for poor performances?

Celebrating poor performances is of course worse, but I don't think I've seen any celebrations of that kind.

Gazidis’ position at Milan is not in question following the failure of the Super League project @DaniLongo
