Lol funny ending. Won't get excited or anything, lessons learned from last season.

But saying that, Allegri-ball was what we needed last season and this probably as well.

we were a bit more solid defensively, that was pleasant

offensively i felt that all of the chances we've created were a result of counter attacks... we will not be getting this much space in 95% of our games...we will need to create chances against teams that sit back and i don't think we've managed to do that in today's game.. i liked saelemaekers performance today

surprised to see you lot praising ricci but really he hasn't done anything out of the ordinary in the last two games... like what was it that impressed you? his short range passing? his dribbling? his defensive contribution? what was it?.. as of yet, he hasn't shown anything promising tbh

bartesaghi has all the tools to become the next de sciglio

I agree on Ricci to an extent. He doesn't seem extraordinarily gifted in his passing, and not overly progressive either.

But I figure there is some well-earned appreciation for him being a stabiliser. He works hard defensively and positions himself well, recycles possession. Seldom makes errors. This is, weirdly enough, something we have been missing for some time. We have a strange tendency to make random blunders and to overcomplicate ball movement in early build up phases.

His positioning impressed me the most. I could care less about everything. Seems to read the game well.

Also, without needing to be mentioned, Leao is our best player.

Why no Torriani? Kid was killing it vs Arsenal, and now 0 minutes.
Are we officially the worst club with youngsters?

Ricci is the signing we needed, not the signing we wanted. He's not going to entertain us but he will be a large part of winning games. His positioning and IQ to move on the ball is key in a side where Musah last season would rather try to dribble 3 players and lose the ball and be in attack when were getting pounded on a counter.. Will not be something you'll catch Ricci doing, and for me that is worth its weight in gold. He will be one of Allegri's golden boys, but maybe not ours :lol:

It's the same as it was at Fonseca's last preseason..lots of heads, free zones, sweeping spring attacks.beautiful goals.. Liverpool gave us a boost not only in attack and pressure, but also in defense, it was very clear that they didn't really try, they didn't go into the joints..They're already High-class. a well-built game and a super line-up. therefore, I would not even come close to making any rosy conclusions about the match, except for tactics and formation 1-2 relatively unsuccessful matches in the Series and it will start again: Allegri is no coach, the team and players are shit. Leao will play not only on the edge, but also in the center of the attack, depending on the situation. This is very clearly emphasized. often tried to defend, going down The defense has become more calm and this is the main focus. the formation is more compact, unlike the Portuguese, no doubt..They try not to let themselves be stretched that's about it, there were no revelations..It's still early..The Ecuadorian arrived two days ago.

Gotta give Estupinan the benefit of the doubt here. Flew into Italy, new city and big move for him and flew to China a day later. Let's see his next string of matches
