Almost doesn't count. He failed tonight. It's on him too. Inter were tremendously beatable. I could see why they are 2nd place in Italy after Napoli in that 2nd half.
I could also see why they made the final, to be honest, they have some outstanding strengths.
But it is true that we mismanaged this game tactically also. There are a ton of fuckups from the players but that really can be limited if we were more pragmatic.
With that 3-2 lead nearing the end of the game you just have to defend, like, come on, park the bus, seeing the defense be so thin with minutes left to go is insane.
I am on board with his principles of play in general but he is too inflexible and it is the last major thing holding him back from being a legend here. I get sticking to the style of play in most situations, but its a CL semi final with minutes left to go, every team in history defends that, all the best teams did it, we are not above that.
