By the way please extend Luka Jovic.

I don’t know why we freezed him out. Idiotic decision but let’s redeem ourself, keep him. He’s good. The way we handled him was dumb but let’s learn from our mistakes and keep him.

I still have faith in Gimenez but perhaps he needs more time. For now Jovic and Abraham can fill the mantle. Though I don’t think we should extend Tammy cause his wages are too high.

Genuinely this was our best match this season, we played so well. The back 3 lineup completely nullified inter’s 2 strikes and Jimenez had an unbelievable match, he really suits playing as a wingback, his defensive weakness is less exposed in this formation.

And props to Maignan today, he was unreal today.

Last but not least, STEFANO PINOLO, I will never forgive you for those 6 defeats in a row and them winning the scudetto in our heads, seriously.

We made this team look like Prime Barcelona with Messi because this dumbo played into their hands all the time.

This team while is incomplete and had his flaws always had the talent to expose this Inter team! Whether it was a 4-2-4 with 2 strikers Ala Fonseca, whether it was a 4-3-3 with 3 midfielders Ala Super Coppa or a 3-4-3 solidified back 3 CB lineup to nullify their 2 strikes Ala Copa SF, we were able to own Inter. We beat them in 3 different ways, 3 different tactical approaches! All the approaches we had one thing in common, play a organised mid-block, more compact and organised, not press like a maniac, we didn’t press that high and left a high line, we didn’t leave our defence open and disorganised and time our counter attacks really well to take advantage of the transitions.

Yet Stefano Pioli this fraudulent hack used 4-2-3-1 with a ridiculous high press game leaving our defense exposed for Inter to take advantage!

Forza Barca and Napoli now, I can't believe we might have double trophies in worst season since ending of Banter Era

If we had Fonseca for CL, conceicao for cups and Pioli for the league it would’ve actually been a good season :proud:

There were much easier ways to have a good season:
- Play 3 at the back since January.
- Instead of buying random players in Winter (Bondo, Sottil, Felix) buy the players we actually need - a DM, a CM and a fullback.

Not to be a party pooper, but it is inexplicable that a team as strong as ours is ninth in the league and went out in the round of 16 of the Champions League with Feyenoord.
Tough to digest, very tough.
Let's hope well for the future, starting with the final in Rome.
Always forza Milan.


I've been saying it for weeks, but from a mentality and attitude point of view, the squad composition is a disaster. We don't have a quality problem, we have a mentality problem. At least Fonseca and Conceicao failed because of this. And if we don't send the face of this problem (Theo) to the desert, then it won't change. Actually, you also have to sell Leao, because he says himself that he primarily plays for fun. Also, the squad planner (probably Moncada) needs to be sacked.

Respect to Jovic, who has fought his way into the season and now looks much fitter and is now being rewarded for it.

But you also have to ask yourself how it can be that a player only gets fit in March/April. Again a question of mentality / attitude.

Let's hope the new coach respects him and he stays in form, because yesterday he looked comparatively quick, lively and also fast in his head.

That's why, once again, we should wait and see when it comes to Gimenez. Let him prepare properly with a good coach and when he's fit and well integrated, things will look very different from what they have so far.

With him, Jovic and Camarda we have a good forward unit. Maybe Furlani will also get Abraham at a favourable price, if he can do something... then negotiate.

Oh, and another thing: Jiménez is our best right-back. And how he was berated here back then because the referee fell for a dive against Atalanta and whistled for a penalty.

But we urgently need at least two centre-backs, a left-back and a defensive midfielder.

So do we consider keeping Conceicao if we win the Coppa and get a good string of results in the league with the 3-4-3?
No thanks.

His stubborness cost us the CL playoffs (besides the humiliation it's also a lot of money).
And he cost us the top 4 (i know he started at top 6, but right now we are top 9).

3-4-3 doesn't make us unbeatable.
Sooner or later, new problems will appear.
And if Sergio needs 10 matches to react tactically, he should go back to coaching Porto.

He has to be considered as a serious contender.

Conceicao has shown really good things and some bad things. To be fair to him, he didn't have the option of preparing for the season from the beginning.

A lot would depend on who the alternatives are. There's nothing to confirm to us that someone like Sarri for example would do better with this squad.

We have to consider the harmony he has created wit the squad and the management and I think Conceicao has done a relatively good job at that. To me, he has created the foundations to build on something better.

I am always in favour of stability and consistency.. but if another better option is available, then...

Tomori-EXPERIENCED CB-Pavlo
Jimenez-Tijy-NEW CDM/CM-Theo
Pulisic-BOMBER/JOVIC BACKUP-Leao

We are missing 3 key players to have a great XI
I wouldn’t say great.. but very good

Leao and Pulisic seem a little bit out of sorts in this formation. Leao needs to sharpen his game to become really effective, its a mental issue. Pulisic looks less effective than previously and seems not to know where to position himself.

But agreed that those three positions need to be upgraded which also helps with squad depth.

I think a better tactician aswell as a "teacher" could make Leao a better player..in terms of responsability, focus and all of that.
Something like Enrique did with Mbappe in that viral video on the internet.
As for Puli he seems really really tired..but at the same time im thinking he got instructed to drift central a lot..which for me personally is not a good thing. I think him not staying wide and playing more as a pure winger kills a little bit of his game. He has a good technique..can cut inside and shoot with his left but also has some really good crosses with his right..

We purchased two strikers to be primary and both were outplayed by the backups including the one that was the cheapest, ridiculed and everything was tried to move him out :lol:

If that isnt point 1. on topics to address going into the offseason for the working group :head:
- All of the SD candidates should be salivating once they get the call.
Gimenez was put on the bench for Tammy who was put on the bench for Jovic. Next we need a certified garbage like Pinamonti hihihihi (hihihi). Logically he will score 20+ goals.

This should have Titanic music.
Wouldn't this compromise the integrity of the competition? If he indeed didn't give the extra time because of this?

Also, think about all the bets companies that would have had quotes for extra time and stuff :p

It also shows how printer have the power to decide shit like this too.

Another game that came to mind, brazil Germany 1-7, they didn't end the game early then 😂
