I know the lineup wasn't the top because of omissions like barella,hakan, even bastoni. But for me the thing is we always suffer against teams that just sit back. The more open our opponents, the easier it is for us.
Tonight for example monza (if you want to call it anti-football go ahead) sat and defended well. Teams like this don't care, go ahead and take the space on the outside and lob it in. Like we did with dimarco all night to no avail. We looked most dangerous when we did quick 1->2 passing head on and tried to infiltrate their back line. Lautaro,thuram, and fratessi missing sitters doesn't help either.
That being said we do also do this thing often were we're like: "ok we played poor last week? Let's go off tonight." So wednesday should be better. I think/hope.
