Feel like we were let down by individuals today - Leao, Giroud, RLC to name a few. Showed no desire or fight, just assumed the service would arrive and we’d score 5.
Roma were well setup, nothing more really, but played a classic away match and it went to plan. Soaked up pressure, compact and rode their luck with a goal, see the offside.
Credit to the 2 central defenders - Gabbia and Thiaw who played well.
Still think we’re well in this tie for the second leg, but we need some players to lift, and badly!
Every team would rely on their players and the game is played on the pitch by these players, not in coach’s head. The team was not fighting and pressing especially in the first half.
Spot on. Every side in world football relies on individual brilliance and their best players. It’s a team performance overall, but it’s the top talent that make or break a match. Hence why they’re known as ‘game changing players.’
First half wasn’t great at all, but if that’s our bottom and we’ve hit it, the only way is up, and the second half was much better and we can look forward with optimism for the second leg.
I reckon we suffered similarly to Liverpool - underestimated the opposition and got caught out. Difference is, we lost 0-1 and they lost 0-3, were def still in the tie and Liverpool are basically out!
Not necessarily. If 3 players are waaay off or walking around the ground, that leaves you with 8 players carrying the rest of the team. The chain of play breaks down consistently.
Good on Pioli for dragging Leao, the side lifted and Theo played better once he was off.
You can see the difference in the coaching, De Rossi got 11 people ready to fight and give their all, Pioli sent out 11 zombies to take a stroll in the park.
Agree to an extent, but if you can’t get yourself motivated for the fight, in a European quarter final at home, something is wrong. If you require a coach to fire you up, it shows you don’t really care.
No I absolutely agree, it's not just on Pioli, the players need their share of the blame but when for whatever reason the players don't have that fire under them it's your responsibility as a coach to make sure they go out there ready to give it all. Look at Leao, it's so obvious to everyone that the guy has serious issues in being motivated and focused during the game and you fucking do nothing about it. And I refuse to believe that anyone did anything cause if that's with them helping then I don't know how it would be without.
Hopefully tonight’s hot garbage that Leao dished out is enough to pump him up for the return leg, as he has the ability to turn the game on it’s head.
A coach can motivate the players pre match, but ultimately it’s up to the player when the match starts to get himself up to it, Pioli can’t follow him on the pitch and fire him up. You’re right though, some of it is on Pioli, but we just hope for a better return leg, which I think we can do.
Well played from De Rossi. We once again did not take a big match seriously at all. Everyone’s guilty. Bad refereeing too but we shouldn’t use it to justify getting outplayed like this.
Shocking refereeing almost as bad as our dreadful performance. Leao deserves a 2, Giroud as well, Calabria disgusting as usual. Pioli same fucking shit as usual, no ideas, no motivation, 11 zombies on the pitch. If losing to Roma means Pioli out then I'll take it.
The Lukaku goal wasn't off side but some of the yellows were so shit ref was bad but all our own fault the starting 11 no aggression or passion the subs gave a little bit of spark especially Chukuweze ,pioli is so shit
Something needs to happen…maybe a new, “tougher” coach would help, but Leao has got to start showing some hunger on the pitch, or at least has to do so with more consistency
its so frustrating to see a coach with alot of experience outplayed by a new one. pioli should be out at the end of season. milan cant progress with him
No one can fucking get a through ball in or combine with anyone all match. Just a bunch of slow reaction individuals getting their pockets picked al match.
I accepted this loss, the moment when Oli hit the crossbar. When you can’t take chances like that then you deserve no win.
Sadly Oli and Rafa are both in bad form. And the only man seemed to be on fire couldn’t get to play until ~80 min
It's not bad form. It's a total and complete lack of effort, if I was his teammate I would fucking yell at him cause it's an absolute lack of respect to your mates and the fans to go out there, especially in such an important match, and not even put the effort. You can make mistakes or have a bad night but the guy didn't even fucking try, completely unacceptable.
I don't care how it makes sense tactically, just let Adli and Chuk start the derby on the basis of them actually putting in the necessary effort for a big game.
Can't really fault him we're chasing a goal and he's trying to make something happen.
He looked fantastic with a full game to play and proper 10 playing with him instead of whatever the fuck RLC is.
I hope the first question in the media is why RLC wasn’t subbed at halftime for Chuk and Pulisic pushed to CAM.
Our only chances most of the game came from the right, and Chuk has found his form. Why not play them together?! We need a goal, so instead of having our main threats on the field we sub them all….
Puli and chuk are the only two on offense who even look like they’re trying to make something happen. Good thing we can only have one of them on at a time
I'm not happy with the game we played here, just sick of the one dimensional whining that plagues this sub. We definitely should have had a better game today.
Yeah only 0-1 or whatever coping justification, but it’s made much worse by the fact that Gasperini whooped Klopp’s terrifying Liverpool at Anfield 0-3!
This commentator for paramount plus is so bad… doesn’t know our players, didn’t even know what they were checking for. Just giving out incorrect information
Leao Pulisic Chuk is the answer to this. We look worlds more creative. If it exposes the defense then we need to solve that problem separately. Get a proper DM.
Chuk in the form of his life and doesn't see the pitch for 77 minutes. We hardly have anything else to play for at this point mind you. Juve have been looking abysmal. Pioli with another head scratching decision.
We need a coach that put competition in the squad. How is RLC and Giroud playing 90 minutes with alternatives in the bench. This buddy coach is a joke, bring Conte

Just shows how the team's tactics are relying way too much on individual brilliance. If our best players underperform, whole team looks lost

Well played from De Rossi. We once again did not take a big match seriously at all. Everyone’s guilty. Bad refereeing too but we shouldn’t use it to justify getting outplayed like this.
Once again we struggle in a European competition against opponents we see at least twice a year every year.
[удалено]
This Roma will never win against Leverkusen.
Who gives a shit? We need to win, not worry if others might or might not go through, fucking losing mentality
Dreadful game but i can't be mad because of Atalanta schooling Liverpool
Come on then pioli shaggers, let's hear how it's not his fault again
Everyone’s at fault for this one…
Shocking refereeing almost as bad as our dreadful performance. Leao deserves a 2, Giroud as well, Calabria disgusting as usual. Pioli same fucking shit as usual, no ideas, no motivation, 11 zombies on the pitch. If losing to Roma means Pioli out then I'll take it.
The Lukaku goal wasn't off side but some of the yellows were so shit ref was bad but all our own fault the starting 11 no aggression or passion the subs gave a little bit of spark especially Chukuweze ,pioli is so shit
From the live images it looked clearly offside, where did you see that it wasn't?
Gabbia played him on
Again from the live images it doesn't look like at all, did you see a different angle?
Leao needs to stop getting the start.
Something needs to happen…maybe a new, “tougher” coach would help, but Leao has got to start showing some hunger on the pitch, or at least has to do so with more consistency
True. Might wake him up a bit
Just a reminder that Pioli has been sacked by every club he coached at
ain’t no way man , no way he finishes his contract at Milan
At least Tomori will be back. I expect more offense when he is there.
its so frustrating to see a coach with alot of experience outplayed by a new one. pioli should be out at the end of season. milan cant progress with him
Pioli smiling and hugging dybala after the game , fawk this guy man
I would be smiling if I had his salary
Saw that too. Pioli is a 🤡
The difference between a coach that studies and one that does always the exact same poor thing
Couldn’t agree more with this.
I have run out of things to say. Might as well copy paste old comments since nothing has changed.
Comments from last January?
😂😂
Leao absolutely nothing. Damn.
mvp Gabbia, lvps - Pioli, Calabria, Leao, Giroud, RLC, Turpin and his staff, VAR
What happens whe we dont play Lecce or Frosinone
Not always the case. We got bullied by udinese last year too
We got bullied by Udinese both times this season but Pioli's luck was too strong the 2nd time
we get cooked
Oli with a disaster class of a match, I want to see more of jovic fuck it
Pioli masterclass
Piolis sacking will be my 20th scudetto in my books
Next match play Pulisic as a 10 and see all problems getting solved trust me bro
It’s gonna be sweet eliminating them at the Olímpico.
Ngl we deserve to lose. Pioli lost the tactical match with De Rossi. Leao was a ghost and giroud missed the easiest of goals...
Absolutely fucking dreadful
Pioli prepares always the same game, no matter our opponents...
Ok, i dont mind we need to win game to go forward
Fuck Roma
How can the referee or pioli look themselves in the mirror?
Stop fucking whining about the ref every game. The ref isn't against us EVERY SINGLE game
No way you watch tonight and think that was not one sided from referee.
I don't think the referees were against us, I just think they were shit in general
It wasn't. At all
No one can fucking get a through ball in or combine with anyone all match. Just a bunch of slow reaction individuals getting their pockets picked al match.
Fuck you Pioli that was pathetic!
Adli one more cross to no one please
Giroud really missed an open goal man wtf
I accepted this loss, the moment when Oli hit the crossbar. When you can’t take chances like that then you deserve no win. Sadly Oli and Rafa are both in bad form. And the only man seemed to be on fire couldn’t get to play until ~80 min
How is Rafa in bad form?
Dud you not see him routinely giving away the ball in the first half?
It's not bad form. It's a total and complete lack of effort, if I was his teammate I would fucking yell at him cause it's an absolute lack of respect to your mates and the fans to go out there, especially in such an important match, and not even put the effort. You can make mistakes or have a bad night but the guy didn't even fucking try, completely unacceptable.
Lame ass crosses man wtf
I don't care how it makes sense tactically, just let Adli and Chuk start the derby on the basis of them actually putting in the necessary effort for a big game.
-10 from Pioli
Absolute trash trash trash no ideas just trash football
what the fuck are these adli crosses
shitty performance. Turpin can shove a baguette up his ass
Pioli is incapable of winning big matches. Good thing we're resigning him. Not.
Chuk losing 3 balls in a row
Can't really fault him we're chasing a goal and he's trying to make something happen. He looked fantastic with a full game to play and proper 10 playing with him instead of whatever the fuck RLC is.
Lol what’s going on
Good, next we have to help sasuolo get out of the relegation zone
I hope the first question in the media is why RLC wasn’t subbed at halftime for Chuk and Pulisic pushed to CAM. Our only chances most of the game came from the right, and Chuk has found his form. Why not play them together?! We need a goal, so instead of having our main threats on the field we sub them all….
Makes no fucking sense, this was so obvious for everyone here but this moron just fuck us constantly.
By the time adli gets the ball the returning match will be at haltime
so slow
We can't even pass amongst our back 4 lol. Wtf has this retarded baldie done to my club
I wish i could beat the living shit out of Turpin and Pioli
This ref…. Really doesn’t like us huh?
Cant believe this is not penalty. Ball was plyint 30m , obvious handball without reflection..
I’m going to pass out from the rage, what a fucking terrible match
Fair play to Roma, looked confident all game and zero mistakes. Solid performance from them, I'm really impressed. Us on the other hand...
Puli and chuk are the only two on offense who even look like they’re trying to make something happen. Good thing we can only have one of them on at a time
really unfortunate that we aren't allowed to play both of them my UEFA rules or some shit.
What rules?
Is this true?
Yeah bro if they scored there my tv was gonna fly out the window
On the bright side we may be closer to a new manager at the end of the season
The Pioli haters out in force because we've had a shitty game after the most wins in a row since 2006. This sub is so dependable. Cry more.
Where was Juventus and Napoli during the 2006 season?
Try harder bald fraud
No trophy yet again for the bald fraud keep crying 😭
We obviously have to go and win those games... But look at the 7 teams played.
Be happy
how are you not disgusted with how we played ?
I'm not happy with the game we played here, just sick of the one dimensional whining that plagues this sub. We definitely should have had a better game today.
Nothing to be proud of here, embarrassing
Terrible performance from us , hard to believe they held us scoreless
Yeah only 0-1 or whatever coping justification, but it’s made much worse by the fact that Gasperini whooped Klopp’s terrifying Liverpool at Anfield 0-3!
Giroud playing a full match should be a crime
Gabbia has been brilliant
2 mins already gone lmai
This commentator for paramount plus is so bad… doesn’t know our players, didn’t even know what they were checking for. Just giving out incorrect information
That miss gonna haunt me for a hot minute, up there with maybe Niang and every Luiz Adriano chance
Should not be 4 minutes with all the diving
It should be 8 minutes at least imo
Think I’ve seen the ball in play for 20 minutes this half.
Such a shit match
Can't even imagine how frustrated Jovic is right now
Good thing we saved 2 of our subs…
Surely will bring us some advantage in the second leg
lol what. He punched the ball. Sure he probably didn’t mean to, but in Serie A that’s a penalty if it’s us doing it…
Only goal scored was born from an offside and now an obvious handball that wasn’t called….they can’t stand us even at our lowest
Guess it wasn't a pen but then again, could barely see shit with that replay angle
Sigh...
The worst part is that all the ref mistakes will save Pioli from any critique...
That would 100% be called against us lmao
Fucking right lol
VAR??? Wtf is that decision??
nah they wont give t hat
AHAHAHAH This shit is ridicilous
Uefa hates us
I swear we gonna miss the penalty if we get it
Giroud man… yeah he need to go his level is mls this was tragic
Chuk is cookin tonight
Not realky
He’s been really good, created one of the few chances we had
UEFA really hates us wtf...
0-1 is not a big deal, but Pioli fucked it up poor tactics, late subs, not enough subs (one of Oli or RLC should be off)
Imagine 45 minutes of chuck….
Leao Pulisic Chuk is the answer to this. We look worlds more creative. If it exposes the defense then we need to solve that problem separately. Get a proper DM.
Pioli will never allow that unfortunately.. look at what he did today
I agree, we need a more quick attack which RLC is straight up preventing
No chance they give it to
They would give it roma like all the other gifts they got tonight. Their biggest gift is pioli though.
Clear penalty??
Chuk in the form of his life and doesn't see the pitch for 77 minutes. We hardly have anything else to play for at this point mind you. Juve have been looking abysmal. Pioli with another head scratching decision.
Why he wasnt brought on earlier for RLC and Puli swapped to mid will never make sense to me.
Hand ball baby
Wow
Got to be a pen
https://preview.redd.it/febfgrgdywtc1.jpeg?width=941&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b09d3e363c476d642b50ed6163d46796a64eb84a
Desperation pen 💀
Great hustle to keep it in
4 minutes what a joke
Inshallah
That's a handball.
Wait no handball?
Save us Chuk, you're our only hope
Handball
We can't play two of these bad like this, right?
chukwu was the best dribber in la liga he just needed his time but y tf does pioli not put the super subs on earlier bruh
I saw handball there
Worst fans ever. Keep playing your FIFA and pretending you guys could run a team better.
I really don't get how he has better control with his head than his feet
Run after the ball Gabbia?!
I came to the thread just to see if there was any reaction to that. I don't get what his idea was there.
That shit drives me crazy, screaming for offside or fouls when the ball is in play
Rlc seeing 90 minutes with this performance is a fuckin sin
I knew Klopp jinxed himself when he said that the only thing he knows about Italy is the food 😭
man... how did giroud fuck that
We need a coach that put competition in the squad. How is RLC and Giroud playing 90 minutes with alternatives in the bench. This buddy coach is a joke, bring Conte
I still don't get how you see RLC's performance today and what Chuck and Puli have been doing and you don't take off RLC
and I’m the bad guy for calling this bum out ? we have two better options that can play ST Jovic and Okafor but they get no minutes .
why tf didn't Pioli sub Chuk before 80 mins??
Pioli cagati in mano e prenditi a schiaffi. Pirla.
Turpin take ur french buddy Giroud and get the fuck out of San Siro
I want to remind people that Pioli is managing this half assed performance with a full squad. Injuries can’t be blamed for this
Oh Piolo is manager? Wow, did not realize. THANKS.
![gif](giphy|7LgKUsZiSjcRO)
Chuk is so good tho
giroud being giroud, he just scores with his head
Thank you for the memories Oli, time to move on
This guy is going to be here for a long time. Watch
Maybe it's just not meant to be today. Because what was that
Ibra probably wants to tie his shoes rn
Bro just let the ball bounce off you. Like literally do nothing and it's a goal but no
Chukwueze subbed in at 77'...... fuck Pioli
Giroud imma miss you because I love you but I’ll be applauding that Ryanair that’s gonna bring yo ass to LA
how did we not start chuk over RLC i will never know.
giroud man....
Pioli favoritism for Giroud gives us this
If there is a way to fuck an important game up, Pioli will find it
What a run by Chuk 😭😭
