Can you elaborate(I know you will) why this is a worse side of gobbi you remember? They are just 2 pts behind league leaders after 13 rounds so I dont understand that claim right now. Enlighten us please.
Well, quality of its league in overall has fallen A LOT over the past few years which makes the competition get worse and worse. These two points difference don't mean much to me, since in overall there is a significiant difference in terms of quality between us and gobbi, or even Milan.
First of all, gobbi has always had quality players in their team. Even through their difficult times post-Calciopoli, they still had better team, more competent people in their management and everything else. However I do think Allegri is a great coach, but other than that, they are in shambles situation these days. I've kept saying that Allegri is the main factor that this side of gobbi is still competitive in the league and are doing the impossible to keep up with the top teams.
I see quite a few members taking shots on "why are people complaining over the result", which to me sounds rather like a loser mentality. Yes, we didn't lose that's great, also I don't deny that there are some positives out of that match, like our comeback in such difficult match, we kept our coolness while we were down and so on, but it's kinda frustrating to me how we didn't push harder for a win. Almost everything leans towards our side, but sadly we just weren't hungry enough for that prize.
Let's remember that we might even lose in Napoli, and with a couple of unexpected events like injuries in key players, absences and so on, things can get completely different and people will go bonkers in here. My point is that we shoudl have gotten every advantage while we've been given opportunity. Napoli last season won Scudetto not because they were aiming to it before the season started, but because chance was given and they saw incompetence of their rivals, so they went all for it.
There's still some difficult matches to be played in the near future. Napoli, Udinese, Lazio, then we also have Coppa against Bologna, so it's a complicated schedule. I'm not making a big deal out of this draw vs gobbi, BUT we should have won given situation of both clubs.
