As I said before, if we lose this game, a large part of it for me is going to be in how it happened. I won't be happy in any scenario, obviously, but there's losing the way we did last season, being cowards, not trying to do anything to pressure Juve's goal and, ultimately, scoring zero goals from open play in 180 minutes, and there's losing the way Milan did, where they were more bold and willing and forced Juve's most skilled players to have to make high-skill plays to beat them. The goal where Dybala and Chiesa combined was absolutely spectacular work between them. There are times when you just have to tip your cap at the way a goal comes about. If we lose because we made their best players have to play to the top of their abilities, and they do so, and at the same time we were more than willing to push the play ourselves, take chances, and create, then at least you can live with the knowledge that sometimes the more skilled team wins on the basis of being the more skilled team. Milan lost with grace in that game. They did nothing to stain their reputation for this season and nothing that should be a drain on their overall team confidence.
But if we play like pussies and cowards again, then everyone involved can get fucked on a rusty nail. Because this Juve team is playable. Six teams have drawn against them, and that includes the Crotone's of the world. Fiorentina(!) beat them. This isn't an unstoppable machine that we should bow down to at just being able to witness their greatness. Anyone who plays like a coward and anyone who coaches like a coward today can fuck right out of this club ASAP as far as I'm concerned, because they aren't going to be part of the solution to winning a single g-ddamned trophy anytime soon if they can't handle the stakes of this fixture.
