Again, like I've been saying since our winning run of games, Pioli is an average coach and the fact that the management couldn't seem that from the beginning is really really worrying. As a caretaker, good choice but that they are/were entertaining keeping him for next season is awful.
Even we were winning every game Pioli was constantly fucking things up, he dropped the Kondogbia-Gagliardini every chance he got, each time his stupidity was immediately obvious. BTW he stumbled on that partnership, he played them together because he had no other choice.
He finally after forever dropped Ansaldi and behold Nagatomo played much better than the Argentinian even after not playing for a long time, Ansaldi would have been murdered by Suso, if the Japanese had a good run of games under his belt and on form he probably wouldn't even have left Suso the one time he did. I bet Santon would also perform much better than Ansaldi, not that it is an accomplishment.
It seems that he'll never play G. Barbosa even after our season is completely over, hell even Pinamonti should be seeing some minutes. The worst of all is playing Palacio at all TBH, that's a fireable offense.
All this obvious things and others I have been pointing them out at least 15 games ago, but Pioli takes forever to fix anything and instead is an expert in fucking things up, today again he went with the 3-man defense which just doesn't work and left our midfield desolated to try and sit back which also just doesn't work for us and we paid dearly for it.
"It's the coach" we said, so we changed the coach multiple times.
"Its the players" we said, so we replaced most of the team in that time (remember it being after WM).
"Its the management" we said, so our club was sold for the 2nd time in 4 years.
What can we actually do now
Changing the coach isn't enough, you actually need to get a good one.
Choosing the right coach is the most important thing because a bad coach will make good and even great players underperform and the team in general play bad, while a good coach will bring the best of players and the general performance of the team will be good, then you can bring better players in your weak spots. With an average coach you don't even really know what your weaknesses are so you'll end revamping the whole team and still perform like shit.
just to update to 2 wins 2 draws 3 losses.
People here aren't bringing up the points average anymore, I wonder why?
For starters if you bring stuff like that up after a small sample of games you're a stupid fucking moron.
For next season: Allegri or Leonardo Jardim.
No Conte, no Simeone but specially NO Spalletti.
