Great recovery!
But the fact that through ball was successful shows our defense is still far from perfect.

We did a decent game yesterday. I liked Kessie a lot, also Rebic near the goal as always.. it was a fine victory. Three points much needed.

Romag making 1 mistake that leads to goal per game
Ibra messing 2 top chances 1 time in 1 game

context of my post was players rating for this game - best and fail
and i show the example were 1 mistake of defender makes him total flop
and 2 missed good chances (in reality ibra had 3 good opportunities to score in first 9 minutes) still allow attacker to not be considered as worst on the pitch.

Romagnoli didn't play in this game
- He had continuous poor outings that led to him being criticized - inside and out of this forum.
Ibra messed up and some were critical of him (leading some persons in the other thread to talk about persons not being appreciative of him)
- I think it was right to be critical of Ibra during that game given the context of us being in a delicate moment and needing to win. If Ibra had played like that last year during the historic run then people wouldn't care at all.
Given that we won vs Roma it's OK but if we had dropped points then much more people would look at the performance more carefully.

We held on this past game v. Roma and I didn't like it. We should have scored 2-3 goals in the first half but since we didn't the second half was us barely holding on and being defensively frail once more. The fact that Tonali played as a type of 3rd CB on many Roma attacks deep in the box doesn't spell good things for defensive organization and it has looked like this since the start of 2021. This IMO is on Pioli either style of play or poor formation set-up v. opponents, or sometimes both, but Pioli needs to get this team moving again, b/c it looks like we're just holding on at the moment. Really important to come out with top energy against Udinese tomorrow regardless of some starters missing.We deserved to win but it was not pretty. Either way I'm glad to get back to winning ways but man that was not pretty. Thank God for Rebic who played amazing and was actually back on form b/c literally none of the other attackers were... Ibra was dominant early but couldn't bury, Saelemaekers was better than his past few performances and always works hard but was average, Leao lazy besides 2-3 runs (classic Leao), Calhanoglu looked awful, and Diaz while he worked hard was more or less ineffective.
