  1. I love this team with all my heart but our performance technically and tactically are still far from convincing. With all those signings I doubt that Pioli could make use of the current squad’s devastating potential. Hope someday we could have a more creative, offensive and expressive coach. Maybe we could start from bringing Zlatan to the backroom as he would be an impactful figure I’m certain, albeit more mentally, not tactically.

  2. Convincing? Monza had closed us for like half hour on our half. We barely had chances in the second half.
    Of course, it’s only the beginning and they’re not in a shape yet, but still we were on the same level with the team named Monza. it says a lot on how urgently we have to improve for the season.
