A win is a win, Torino are tough opponents.

We are slightly better than 22/23 playing wise in the league though, this is not a Scudetto winning performance long term.

generally, great defending is team organisation, drilling, and cohesion. We have a number of really great defenders, but for whatever reason, the cohesion is just gone
Which ultimately fall down on the man on the bench

ok I will spell it out, complacent or lack of motivation or being not professional can also cause the above outcome.
Like I don't see Pavard doing Pavard things when he joined even he was lacking cohesion when he first joined.

TBH i think the underlying problem is the players' mind is focusing on CL and think they are miles ahead in the league that they don't have to put in as much effort.

I don’t give a single fuck about the win, the three points, or Thuram’s hat trick.

Seriously. This team doesn’t have a damn thing that resembles a scudetto winning side. It’s like we have acurse in our DNA. We hit a milestone and then we choke, we go back to being midtable trash.

After the triplete, straight back to fucking nobodies. When we won with Conte, we had all the momentum in the world, and we did fucking nothing wiht it. Just needed one or at mosttwo players to keep us dominating for the next 5+ years. We dropped the ball like we always do. And here we are again after we reach the 20 titles we are doing the exact same shit all over.

It’s unbelievable how consistent we are at fucking this up. We have this loser mentality that just doesn’t go away. We bring in average players, hope for some magical chemistry like we are some fucking cheap movie, and then sit around wondering why arent we winning dumb dry games. It’s like every year we think we’ve hacked football. We’ve got the whole “oh but beppe will get him for free” strategy going, and for some reason, we act like we’re geniuses for it.

Yhis whole “let’s get him for free” obsession... fucking hell man. Like, we are out there patting ourselves on the back going “look at us, we got him for free!” we're still talking about how awesome we are getting Zielinski for free, THATS THE SHIT WE ARE STILL HAPPY FOR lol

The club thinks it’s pulling off some genius strategy every summer, and the fans are supposed to pop champagne like we just signed prime Messi.

We’re not winning shit this year. Not the Scudetto, not the Coppa, and if you think we’re doing anything in the CHL I might actually die laughing.. We’ll probably choke so hard people will think de boer is still our manager. We (me too included) keep pretending like this team is just one piece away from magically turning into world class machine.


Fuck this win. Fuck these three points. Fuck Inter.

You sure it is him and not the players' mindset?

just comparing to last year, we just seem to be a lot open and guys just blowing by like nothing. could be players mindset but that too hes the coach so hes responsible to fix it

lautaro reaction to that final di marco cross was like wtf.
lautaro was desperate today. one play before that inzaghi clearly told him go to the corner and waste time and instead he cut inside and tried to score

Just as great a sub he is just as useless is he as a starter… hopefully Inzaghi realises this sooner rather than later

Inzaghi has usually managed the workload well. We have decent bench.

But this is something you cannot blame on subs. All the guys are lacking in effort and focus.

I think Lukaku`s mom has put a spell on us so he can be the hero in Nipples.

workload wise and rotations that i have no problem with, just feel somethings off with the system as we are way more open compared to last year

I dont think any of our players are that stupid.

At the start of the season, maybe, but right now? Its obvious the league is going to be really hard for us to retain this year.

Complacency is when you're winning a gme and you take the foot off the gas, or when you're sailing the league. I dont think complacency or lack of motivation is relevant right now. I think its a lack of drilling and discipline in the back. Probably not helped by the pre-season, but still, same applies to Juve-0-goals-conceded. The fucking exact same players last year was one of the most impressive defenses we've ever seen, and now they're a bunch of fucking potatos - you think that has nothing whatsoever to do with the manager and is all entirely on the players?

Acerbi is older, Darmian too,Dumfries is dumber. We didnt bring anyone new that can ugrade our defence. Meanwhile rube, beelan and Napoli have a money and younger fresh reinforcements. Not optimistic about this season.

Cahla conceding a stupid penalty like that says a lot. Out of all players i would say that he's one of those players that never does some stupid mistake.

If you think it is lack of drills or tactical reasons, then explain how we defended so well against City?
For me it is not they cannot do it, but their mind is not 100% there for the defending.

We will get our house in order.

I would send all our defenders to Ritiro. Training starts 06 AM on the pitch ready and the mid to attack can enjoy their families and free time.

Just pure mediocrity. Its like they have aged 5 years because of last season`s effort.

Golden rule - "defence wins you titles". With this kind of defence we are gonna fail at keeping the Scudetto badge on our shirts. That's sure.

Inzaghi should beat the shit out of these guys and remind them that it's not the end of April and we do not have a 15 points lead.

It's still early October but we have to play Roma at fucking Olympico and fucking Gobbi that haven't conceded a goal in Serie A yet.
