We are becoming the "draw kings" of Italy. I'll take a point from Florence i guess. But it sucks that Pulisic missed both of those chances. The game could have been so different if he put at least one away. In reality, he should have easily scored both.
Anyway, the overall (attacking) performance sucked. But it's never about performances with Allegri, so there is no point talking about it. But on an individual basis, there is a lot to say. I'll "keep it short"....
Mike was good.
CBs were fine. About what you'd expect and no disasters.
Estupiñán was a disaster. I'm trying to not be reactive and allow players time to settle, account for injuries, lost self-confidence, etc. But this guy just doesn't seem good enough. He gets the fundamentals of football incorrect multiple times a game.
Salad was good. Ran a shit ton and was everywhere. Yes, he made mistakes on the ball, especially later on, but i'm not gonna hold that against him.
Ricci is nothing more than a backup. In that sense, he is what he is.
Jashari Is proving why he doesn't start. I get that he is playing somewhat out of his position and comfort zone, but with this type of performances, get ready to watch Modric play every game until the end of the season, even if it means in a wheelchair.
RLC...what the fuk!?!?! What is this player!?!? IS HE EVEN a player??? Shocking! I'm not a fan of Fofana...but looking at RLC, Ricci, Jashari....i see why Allegri chooses him.
Fullkrug I thought was terrible for 90% of the first half. I'm giving him some grace for the 2 layovers to Pulisic. But he otherwise looked heavy-footed. Took some terrible touches and was easily dispossessed multiple times....3 of which i distinctly remember leading to very dangerous Viola chances. I will say though....if we bought Fullkrig so he can play at the halfway line...then we fuked up. He needs to be in the box, attacking crosses. Unfortunately, we did none of that why he was in the game. We barely committed numbers in the final 3rd and we didn't spend much time in the final 3rd.
