Well, take another look Han.

The second goal goes on Alex and MDS, because Zaza was simply left unmarked and both could/should have done more. Here we agree. But the first goal?? Blaming that one on MDS. Mattia covered the left flank, this is his job. Berardi did not come from the left, he was positioned centrally and found Sansone.

Also, take a look at the sintesi. You'll see that almost every attack came of Rami's side, not MDS. Mattia had a bad showing, but I cannot find a reason (other then people wanting to prove their point of how MDS is bad or out of form) why I'd pick him over Rami. Once again, Rami made the crucial marking and positioning errors, he let his man go on numerous occasions without even being near.

There were more chances created from DS's side by Berardi turning DS

As you probably remember, I'm one of DS's avid backers, but he is out of form atm, he hasn't been consistently good for a while now, that being said, I've always maintained that even if he's not in his best form, he's still defensively reliable. That's why I've always maintained that Armero should never start in front of him, even if he's playing terribly.

That being said, he was continuously a step behind Berardi, in the game, you might be right about the first goal, and I've said it was Rami's mistake as well since Sansone completely caught him out. But DS was a major problem for us in that first half, he improved slightly in the second but Sassuolo were mostly running at us on our left side in that first half.

As for mistakes, we conceded twice, first was on Monto and Rami (going to have to concede this one as I don't remember all that clearly), second on DS and maybe/slightly Alex.

Sassuolo had probably 1 or 2 more clear cut chances aside from those 2 and all were from bad midfield play and our FBs getting turned over

@ Danny, I don't want to get into the Rami debate with you, all I'll say is that he's been good when he's played there in recent weeks along side Mexes. Even if you say he's only good on the ball and nothing else...


I don't want to get into it either, I was just correcting your incorrect assumption about my post.

Well, I for one completely disagree.

Firstly, yes, Essien was bad, but Monto was even worse because his mistake resulted the first goal in the first place.

Secondly, MDS, really? Sure, he had a very bad showing, but no - the danger came from the right, which was always left completely uncovered by Rami. Sansone and Zaza were by far the more dangerous duo, coming from the right. You can see at the highlights, the best chances Sassuolo created (bar that one Berardi counter) all were on the right.


We disagree on a lot, but for once you've nailed it.
