Well,maybe.But they beat Verona with aspirations of EL yesterday.So who can really tell what's the story.
This is great point.With or without fans,it's just the same for this fuckers.And "pressure from Meazza" was excuse for them so many times.
Also,as Puma said,this is clearly mentally ill team.What is interesting to me is that we even bought that huge warrior Godin with great personality to help with this aspect and even he can't do shit with leading by example or something.Are we just having to many mental dwarfs that no one can really fix this (not Conte,not Godin...) or what is the real problem.Who bloody knows.
you should also have put in bold the second part: "which for whatever reason almost didn't even bother to try to play the match against us".
football sometimes is random, that day brescia didn't even show up. i don't know brescia well enough to understand why, but this is irrelevant to me.
when we consider the brescia match for what it is, an exception due to the very poor performance of our opponent, we can observe a continuous trend: we can't kill off the matches, and we are often surprised on the counter. it happened against every single opponent from napoli on.
the second problem is a tactical one, the first one might have a psychological component.
also, as others have pointed out, conte should be more proactive with the substitutions.
