Well, I knew Biglia isn't anything special and we needed more creative force. Same goes for Hakan.

It's not about crativity, it's the fundamentals as Han said. Everything is wrong right now. Biglia was great at Lazio, he's been good with Argentina as well from what I've read. But playing in a team that's devoid of any ideas or gameplan would be difficult even for a world class player, let alone people like Biglia and Hakan.

Sorry for disappearing. Was sick and then had friends in town.

The derby wasn't a complete disaster. But a couple of things seemed clear to me:
* Montella doesn't know how to field his players to get the best out of them
* the midfield doesn't work
* Biglia and Rodriguez had HORRIBLE games
* the midfield doesn't work
* Some players (Loca, Cutrone, and oddly enough, Borini) fight like hell for the team. The rest, not so much.
* issues between Jack and Montella. Not sure how much is really there and how much Mino's pushing that.
* people need to sort this out fast. It's a mess
* did I mention the midfield?

I guess no talk at all. How embarrassing, the derby match thread still on 2 pages. Ahh well...

Montella has to be fired. Look at how we started again today. We might win against these Greeks but it's a real mess here. I think half of the team isn't simply reacting to Montella and his lead. We start every game sleepy, disoriented, uninterested...

The defense looks like a mess. I think the 3 man D failed completely.

I think the players want him gone as well at this point, it's the only way to explain the total lack of interest being displayed out there.

Montella is simply failing at everything atm. He can't get the system to work, he can't get the players to follow instructions and it's simply not working any longer. At this point it really has nothing to do with what formation we play, the problem is so much more complicated than that. If we want to get technical about things, the 4 man defence wasn't working either before this, complaining about the formation is useless right now

To barely have any shots against a 2nd rate Greek side at the San Siro is beyond embarrassing.

See another big red flag here, he makes a like for like change (Kalinic for Silva) when the strikers are so clearly not the problem.

Suso and Bona both look completely uncomfortable out there, one playing as a WB the other in a retreated midfield position. The decisions he's making just lack basic sense.

I don't understand why he's insisting on 2 strikers while pushing both Suso and Bona in positions which they are not effective in

Montella has to go - we have the easiest group it should really be a walkover. Between this and not being able to pull the best from the players I think that he should be out.

You know, players might actually do halfway well if they weren't consistently played out of position like half the team was yesterday.

Agree that he's lost the dressing room and the sooner he is gone the better.

Yesterday's game was just... Rodriguez as CB, Bonaventura as LWB, Calhanoglu as anchor, Suso as CM. I really don't know anymore...

Who would you guys realistically want to bring in as the coach?

I have heard Sousa, Mazzari, Hiddink, Blanc, and Petkovic as some of the possibilities. I think any coach we bring in will be a year-long placeholder for Conte anyway.

We may play 3-4-3 against Genoa, according to Mediaset:

Donnarumma; Zapata, Bonucci, Romagnoli; Borini, Kessie, Biglia, Rodriguez; Suso, Kalinic, Bonaventura.

Well at least that's an improvement over that mess we saw in mid-week

Still, as I have said before, I don't think switching the formation around will be much help. Montella has lost the support of the players and I feel like they're not doing their best right now because they have no interest in saving his job

That's really questionable. But we'll see. Conte understands Bonucci, it would be a great add.

All the other names are really uninspiring. Hiddink perhaps, he's been a good fireman in the past. All the other guys are just Fiorentina-level coaches just like Montella.
