I knew it was absurd when I wrote it lol, but the sentiment is correct. I think too many people downplay how misued he was in that midfield position, and it's worth repeating a thousand times- Pioli got a 6'4" CF and tried to make him a 10(-2) or 8(+2). Even more absurd, in hindsight.
So how was he today well away from Pioli playing in his preferred position :proud:

The kid melted - just accept it

Why would you want to partner with our rivals that have scammed and ruined Serie A along with Juve?

Brk this is so silly.
Inter can burn in hell along with Juve. I don’t care about a strong inter and Juve I want to Bayernize the league such that the league title is a given every year (unless we sign Harry Kane), so we can rotate players and just focus on deep CL runs every year.

This is the future I envision. Not one where Inter shares our stadium and we are fighting tooth and nail for the Scudetto every year.

Pioli about to throw away top 4 as well. :lol:

These next few months can’t go quick enough. Get him out of here.
Sign the pre-contract with Motta, have him pull a De Vrij and choke away top 4. That’s the only option at this point.

Pioli has thrown away the luxury of getting to rest players in Serie a for UEL. We need to do the opposite, especially given that we have Slavia Prague.

VAR should have a cricket “umpire’s call” system where if there isn’t a clear error, just let the ref’s call stand.

They say in this practice but implement it stupidly. Minor thing like Giroud’s should never be overturned (the ref did not call it a penalty in real time)

This love-hate (or hate-hate for me) relationship with Pioli can’t last.

He’s had his portion.
But life must go on.

I’m sick and tired of this soft pens we are getting against us.

3 of our last pens against us are all really soft

And of course Maignan can’t even save one of them. My fucking god, give Tata the same opportunity and he would save at least ONE!

Has it been 10 pens we conceded this season? and he saved NONE!

Management will be really stupid not to sell his ass this summer

Watching that game again I can’t bitch about bennacer when RLC was useless. At least unfit, short Ismael working like a dog. Even when Ruben tracks back he is so soft.

We need more midfielders both of them can’t start with Adli. Jesus nobody even tries to press us because they are so afraid of Theo :lol: or they don’t care

Pulisic is a bad boy he works hard and effective. EPOs are back baby worthy player for being top jersey seller.

Giroud starting because we can’t find a striker since galliani shipped ibra to croissant league

That Rafael goal was physical supremacy

Adli knows to just attack like a shark no caressing the ball. No tika no taka fuck you

Bro they are long passing to bennacer , you have no idea how much his engine has to work to chase those ball at the top like osimhen. I am convinced pioli wants to finish bennacer off

We still qualified in the EL and the handball penalty was harsh imo. It was from close range and not majorly out of natural position.

In some good news, however, especially for the old-heads who have known me for a long time, I am actually going to the San Siro!

I am going to be there for the Slavia Prague home match :proud: :proud:

@Stitches @Ash-ish @leaf Everyone else

Please make us win 3-0

In next few games Adli is going to get red for killing some one and I will fully support it. Just letting everyone know. What a beautiful thing to see tall central midfielders who can be rough

Does any one distance covered for our players for this game

First half of Adli cooking is beautiful

Yeah, at this point they are genuinely top 5 in Europe. You can argue they are anywhere in that top 5.

Marotta and Inzaghi have done a phenomenal job and it makes my fucking blood boil.
I wanted Inzaghi back in 2019 when Gattuso and then Giampolo got fired

Adli when tracking back looks left and right constantly like you are jaywalking in India. Good good characteristics for a dm

This fucker is good very good. We need to get better midfielders and a mobile strikers. How old is drogba?

He even wins headers and constantly moves with purpose when he is involved

After he gave away that penalty to Bologna, resulting in a draw? Did we ever see Vranckx again after he gave away that freekick to Roma, resulting in a draw? :lol:
So , expecting Giroud to retire .

Far be it from me to defend Pioli but with Kjaer, Gabbia and Thiaw everyone would struggle in defense

And how about before the injuries?

When we allowed 5 against inter, 2 to lecce, 3 psg, 3 to dortmund, 2 to Napoli….we’ve been leaking in goals all season with and without our starting CB’s

We’ve barely held any clean sheets this season. Without a proper defense you can’t win titles. I know Pioli mentioned before that we need to outscore teams, however we don’t even have that much of a consistent attack.

Costacurta in the Sky studio: "Milan alternates successful episodes with missed opportunities, but misses a lot all the time." What is the problem: individual mistakes or the organization of the game? I began to figure it out. Milan have conceded 16 (!) goals in the last 9 matches. • 7 times from penalties, which brought 7 different players, so as not to complicate, we will attribute all cases to individual mistakes, without transferring the blame to Pioli, • 4 shots from the central area in front of the penalty area😏 • 4 after direct attacks or penetrating passes I agree with Fabio Caressa: "Since the summer, the opponents have been approaching the Milan penalty area on an empty field. Unlike other teams, Milan does not properly protect the central area in front of the penalty area." 4 days pass, what do we see? 11th minute Rennes - the team that scored the most in Euro tournaments due to a penalty, opens the scoring with a shot that Leau did not manage to block. Apparently, according to Pioli, this is his task. Is it surprising to statistics?

We have a lot of players we should sell.

RLC, Bennacer, Chuk, Pobega be sold too for me.

The entire midfield needs a rebuild. The rest of the team is more or less fine besides a CF

The midfield is good in terms of personnel. It's just unbalanced because Pioli was fixated on the idea that Krunic was a good defensive midfielder.

The midfield needs a very good defensive midfielder and a better coach.

Yes, it's not enough for Pobega. But giving up Chukwueze after just one season seems impatient and premature. Pioli simply doesn't know how to utilise his speed and other qualities. If his transfer had failed in the summer, the big meltdown would have broken out here and now you want to chase him off the pitch. That's too childish, too ill-considered and too actionist for me.

Chukwueze would already have 8 goals under Alonso.

But you (the commode) also criticise RLC, who played a strong game yesterday, and celebrate Bennacer with his 10 possessions lost and a duel rate of 20%.

Don’t want to hear anymore shit about De Ket being a top player-he’s a shitbag and gets absolutely wee guyed on big occasions. Only pathetic displays get hooked at halftime

No no, it was absolutely Girouds fault, if he was black, we'd all be hating on him here. No one would talk about Orsato looking at the screen faster than Ferrari does pitstops. As a matter of fact, if Orsato was black, we'd be all hating on him now and not exusing his error with... - wait a minute, we are hating on him!

I'm confused now.

All very well Costacurta and the usual ex player Pioli defenders saying it’s individual errors and not manager but if these guys continue to do and make stupid decisions it’s a greater problem that the coach needs to resolve and compensate for the shit on the field if that’s to be believed. One on ones keep getting exposed-football is a team sport and this tit needs to protect and get our team to work as a unit like any other good manager does. The buck stops with him-end of
