Yes it really is. Juve have a shitty habit of building momentum, so stumbling at the first somewhat challenging opposition they run into is really helpful to make that mentality.more fragile rather than stronger. A stumble after 2 wins will have a far bigger impact than a stumble after 15 in a row.

It is a marathon but watching one of the competition take a tumble and shit themselves rather than delivering blistering pace/time means we can breath a bit easier
Different coach and different group of players, wouldn't expect them to have the same "shitty habit". Plus, this "stumble" doesn't mean anything tbh, we stumbled in the first game of the season and we recovered well the last two games. It's way too early for any of these matches to be "Important".

We can breath easier? If by we, you meant supporters, sure. It's all subjective. But if you meant the time, I don't think this draw meant anything to them, not for those with winning mentalities.

This is a very young Juve team with not loads of winners in it - moments like this, and how they react, is how conte forged Inter

Cmon as if different coaches and players.means anything, we all know esp with Juve the same shitty habit is also favours from the refs etc.

Every game is important, and when building a new team and trying to instill the team instinct, the early ones will make a lasting impact.

Took two years for Inzaghi to instill winning mentality that Conte "forged". So yes, different coaches and players do mean something.

How many people here lost their shit when Juve were close to us last season? How we end is what matters, not how we start.

It was a good result for us, sure. But important? Nah.

The only thing that worries me is that Juve haven't conceded yet.

It's funny how the Inter victory gets reduced by rival fans only because Atalanta was shit, like Inter has done nothing the whole game. But then if we watch their games they basically were shit and would lose or draw against that Atalanta. Milan almost lost to Lazio and has only 2 points, Juve draw to Roma with 1 shot on goal. Out of this 3 match days i honestly think we made a good job, without the last minute handball from Bischek it would be 9 points. Not sure about other teams perfomances, but Juve/Milan fans have the courrage to talk as always.

I don't think they will sack Fonseca anytime soon. What's the point of sacking a coach right after a few matches while you've just started a new project?

Responsilibity of the failure eventually would go harder on their head management rather than poor coaching. It was their choice, so they must stick to it for a while. Besides, issues will only get bigger for them. I was one of few whom kept saying that Pioli is NOT the problem in Milan and they might regret sacking him.

Not saying that Pioli is a great coach, but the guy over-achieved with this average side of Milan.

Their situation reminds me a little bit of Inter's post-treble banter era. Changing coaches every here and then won't solve anything. It will only make things worse actually.

Depends. I was also not a fan of this changes but we had really some terrible coaches. One of them was De Boer. That guy was too long at Inter and as terrible it sounds, i wanted inter to lose games only to get ride of that piece of shit.

I’m feeling a strong banter era season coming for Milan if they don’t change coaches before December.

Please god let them keep Fonseca.

Fonseca gives me Gianpaolo vibes. Only a matter of time before he gets fired. Hopefully they replace him with Pioli and not a top coach.

Yeah, but my point is, a proper management has a clear vision and does it's best to hire a competent coach to start a new project and back him. For example, most of us were sceptic regarding Inzaghi's appointment, but our management proved us wrong. Had they hired someone just for the sake of it, and then sack him after a short period, that just goes to show how incompetent that management is.

De Boer was terrible, but our management's decisions post-treble era was just pathetic. It goes to show how long we had to wait and make so many changes in the club before we achieved our objective.
