Brahim is annoying me today

 

[voom]

Cremonese strong - Fiorentina stronger.

Midfield is devoured by Fiorentina.

After a few games, where we don't see anymore the same "beautiful" performances, we can say that there is something wrong with the whole team setting. Because except from Maignan, Saele, Ibra (on a good day), I don't really see someone that is crucially missing.

 

[Samaldinho]

The problem lies in our attacking four. They don't hold onto the ball, at all.

The whole point of Krunic is to either be a defensive shield, or someone to get the ball, and just be competent enough to let our attacking players to get into position and to be a pressure release valve.

But the entire attacking four have been shit today. They literally are a drain on our play today, and they do that often, they lose the ball, their through balls are in the wrong direction, or they dribble endlessly without any end product, without any danger created.

 

[Sognatore]

Maybe it's just another off game

 

[Pigeon]

i got banter ptsd from this half. WTF is this?????? unreal shit

 

[Chiko]

The ball was literally diverted away from where he was going... He's average but he's not to blame there, just a scape goat on this occasion I'm afraid.

We can agree to disagree. I’ve seen Mike save way more difficult deflected balls. It’s a team sport and if you want to win the league when it’s tough sometimes the goalkeeper keeps you in the game. We can’t be fighting for titles and have such a glaring weakness in the back.

Tomori headed a ball away and tata had it covered but kept quiet. Is it his fault no. But that’s the difference between Tata and Mike. 3 points and 1 point, is those details.

 

[doraemon]

If Maldini doesn't add important pieces for January this team will be playing in the Europa League. They're current;y not better than the rest of the teams competing for a CL spot. It's a toss up at this point.

We also looking at r16 elimination considering our record against english club, maldini and gerry MUST ABSOLUTELY add key signing

Yeah, they are quite eating all spaces.

 

[scarecrows]

Surely Fiorentina cant keep this rhythm in 2nd half?

 

[Qaas]

Teams have discovered how weak the midfield is and now they are not letting us breathe

This exactly like the match against torino

 

[fray]

How doesn't Giroud get a freekick there, but Ikone gets one on Tomori a minute prior

 

[Cloren]

We are getting outplayed by Fiorentina… the WC break can’t come soon enough thank god

Long balls and flicks.

Midfield = punching bag for Fiorentina.

Defense = kitty litter for Fiorentina's shit.

That is why Tonali and Bennacer struggle so much, and themselves are doing so poor. Fiorentina just get a free pass and we give away every forward ball. There is no retention to build up and create. I understand why Diaz and Krunic were picked here, but both choices are backfiring spectacularly. We need Krunic in the midfield here to actually help.

 

[Pigeon]

tomori?

 

[ACMilanello]

This isn't something we haven't seen before, ball retention, cohesion and overall play has not been consistent this season. Combine that with a worse defense and we have a very volatile team. Honestly based on our form, being 2nd and in a position to do damage in CL is not bad at all.

 

[VillaiN]

Tomori s garbage. Not first time.
Pls United offer some money.

 

[voom]

Last game before the break and they play like this.

 

[AC_Wesley]

Im totally ok with a WC break.

Only AC Milan can make watching AC Milan feel like a chore.

Jesus fuck.

 

[Cloren]

We need a top midfielder in January ASAP

 

[MilanFan89]

First 2mins good.
40minutes of garbage

 

[joyrider]

ffs ref, igor was pulling giroud back

 

[fray]

FFS Tonali.

 

[Cloren]

Leao passed too late.

Maldini committed a major fuck up by extending Pioli when he did. Gave him a long extension to ride a potential plunge.

 

[kevin_dk]

Yeah get me Kessie his fat ass prevents rape of center backs.

Kessie gone and fraud Tomori busted. Total scam.

 

[Nalim]

Rafa…

 

[kakajd]

out ran

out dribbled

pioli
if you don't change it at half time
