Glad this wasn't a cut-throat result needed for a Scudetto push.

What will be the takeaway from this match is that we conceded a dodgy pen whereas it should be we are fucking useless at putting games to bed or keeping a tight defence it’s like one chance-the opponent scores. Ten chances for us-no goal. Opponent gets penalty call, we don’t. This shit can’t be coincidence
We don't have a killer instinct. We score a goal and get up. This has been going on for the second season with a few exceptions.Why? I think the question is rhetorical, the fish always rots from the head

Atalanta did nothing today. Nothing.

If we want to talk about killer instinct and our attack, let's focus on RLC today.

Honestly I'd be fascinated by some stats on the demographics in here. It would be pretty enlightening but make a lot of things easily understandable at times haha.

The whole Lentini story was pretty sad. I remember bragging to some mates about spending 12 million vrs the £100k Edinburgh clubs were spending on players haha.

That was such a great side, and handed Barca their asses. I have that match on a VHS tape still... No player though lol.

Sounding like a grumpy old fart, football truly was a different game back then and we were the fucking kings, queens, princes and everything in between.

Re: Weah, what an underappreciated player... Work with me, but a fit Okafor could be a Weah lite... Very "Lite" but formation, positionally, Okafor could fit the Weah role.

Now dont that twisted thinking I'm saying Weah and Okafor or on similar plains haha.

And Savicavic and Boban, the heart they played with, fuck.... @Pingu they had that dog!!!
Haha naw Chips, not even close. Weah had elite technique, speed, balance, strenght, shooting with both feet, header of the ball... He was truly complete and only other forward here in the last 30 years who was in that vein iz Shevchenko. No wonder they both got Golden Ball. Ibra had the most flair and trickery, but wasn't pacey as those two. He was a 10 in a target man's body. Balotelli had the exact same skillset (Ibra-lite), too bad he lacked mental characteristics...

No way Okafor could hold the ball up with opponents on his back like those guys could... He does work hard, I'll give you that, but is nowhere near covid-era Rebić.

We better
It's bad timing to say this after a loss and a draw in the league, but we have a good record in 2024 and approaching a fully healthy team.

Not Pioli's fault, Gerry is saving us off the field, ChK will absolutely be a Moncada masterclass...

Why do the players keep being shite and this is all the referees fault...

Or we really are not in a good place on a lot of levels, regardless of what side of arguments you place yourself... And today was another example of our ineptitude in so many areas of the company.

Fuck this is a tough season to get the wee guy into AC Milan and not teach him words like cunt, fuck, cuck bitch, wanker, cock sucking arse hole and yer mum's a spunk bucket.

Technically he hasn't seen Milan lose yet lol

I'd be willing to bet quite a bit on us having that covered.

I still think we will displace Juve and get 2nd.
Presently I am not so sure . Luckily sixth one is 12 points behind with a game in hand ( in case Italy have 5 teams in the CL ) , otherwise we are close to be out . At least if we continue to play like that .

Great clubs would’ve been barreling down on the opposition’s goal nonstop when drawing/losing. Milan spent the last 10 minutes passing it around at the back and midfield. Couldn’t even get anything going in Atalanta’s box.

I am not bennacer’s biggest fan but why was he made to run into the box consistently like deers? Why couldn’t we just play musah for it. Weird tactics it doesn’t suit Bennaacer at all. Pioli wants to end his career. Poor guy

How exactly a team does nothing against us and yet we don’t lay a glove on them? Inter batter everyone and Juve get a bullshit goal today to win-absolutely sick of this season
When Juve and Inter get penalties called against them that are invented and their players get yellow cards for looking at refs, I'll agree with you.

And we did the same . So it is not unfair .
We dominated this game.

If we got invented penalties, that would make us even, oh and some deserved second yellows for shit like Scalvini just hitting Leao.

Imagine Leao with the protection Lautaro and Barella and the rest of those mutants get in Serie A.

Inter 7 shots on goal= 4 goals
Milan 7 shots on goal = 1 goal

Our finishing sucks, midlefielders are good at keeping the ball but their finishing also sucks.

I look at the chart and I'm scared. So much so that I will support Inter in the match against Atalanta. They're already champions anyway.
It’s the smart way to look at it. I’d start getting nervous too. Hopefully Bologna fades a little. After their next 2 matches they have a pretty favorable schedule to end the season.

Atalanta has a brutal month of March ahead. Hopefully they drop points.

With Thiaw on the pitch and Adli in front of him our build up is better, only Gabbia is bad at this, sometimes he has many opportunities to break the line but he is scared, Theo is helping him a lot.

RLC its ok, but i would like a player that is more involved with the ball, run, passing, shooting.
