. What's the point of counter attack if the remaining of the team were dead tired..?

Which is the reason why we sat back and absorbed pressure, because we simply couldn't keep up the constant pressing for the remainder of the game. A fast player would be able to bring the ball away from our half and reduce pressure on our final third while increasing the awareness required for the opposition defence. Counter attacking, or scoring from counter is only part of he job.

His presence is enough to generate a reaction from the opposition. Whether it worked or not is another question, but it is a valid strategy and is common throughout football.

Well, he won't leave by himself but he will be fired end of season if we can get a big name. Rumour is Fiorentina want him, so maybe we wouldn't even have to pay him one season for nothing.

Florence based paper Corriere Fiorentino says Pioli is Fiora's first pick to succeed Sousa on the bench,in front of Di Francesco.

It's pretty safe to say Stefano won't be our coach next season tbh

Well if Fiorentina thinks that Pioli is better than Di Francesco...where is the guy who said DiF is good enough for our bench,maybe if he gets some great results with a smaller team first...like Fiora,oh wait,they prefer Stefano...

I would still give him time to the end of season. The team is in a hole now and if he is able to pull them together, mean something. Especially our fixtures against Viola, Lazio and Napoli.

Wasn't his contract only until the end of the season, he was only a caretaker after all?

Pioli is the best coach we had after Mou.
It's the squad who has no winning mentality, not the coach. We desperately need some winners and leaders in our teamThe team has given up this season because they cant reach CL anymore, don't blame only the coach and not the team.

No offense but do you really think Jardim is a better coach than Conte or Simeone? Since Mou we havent had the opportunity to get good managers. For the majority of time we have gone with the best option available to us as we arent going to get coaches of the level of Mourinho or Ancellotti anymore. We are lucky to even have Simeone as an option due to his history here and turning him down is a halfwit decision. You make it sound like getting top tier coaches is an easy feat when there arent many of them but plenty of tier 3 (Pioli level coaches).


Right now, nope. But he has the potential to be better than both, but more importantly I really don't like Simeone's or Conte's style of football and if Suning are serious about making us a top brand in football they shouldn't either.

My favorite choice is Allegri anyways, but Jardim should be much easier to get.

He was never formally appointed as a caretaker, for all intents and purposes, he's a regular coach just like De Boer and Mancini before him. His contract expires in 2018, if I'm not mistaken.

We just assumed he's a caretaker and treated him accordingly because there's no way Suning would ever trust him with a 150m budget.

This is what makes Mourinho the best one. He gives them the winning mentality and that's why we need a quality coach.

Allegri's brand of football is hardly attractive.

he wins. we lose. i rather win and play unattractive football, rather then get our shit shoved in every couple games just to be entertaining

I agree. My comment was to the poster than said he doesn't want Simeone because of his brand of football, but wants Allegri.
