Too slow and out of form?

Good God, I really do dislike the new shirts. Font, colors, stripes, nothing seems to be in line. And the English cross? That's maybe retro, but a tad too much if you ask me.

Niang is so brutal on the ball, even when he tries to make a simply pass. It's like he's playing Fifa and letting to power-up reach red

Nah, this match is a waste of time to watch. Too early to tell anything. It's just a warm-up.

People seem to have had problems watching this...
Points to note:
1: Mastour. Wow. 16 years of age and he looks like he's been doing it for years. We could have a total gem on our hands here. His setup play for Mestalli was absolutely excellent. And don't say 'it's only Monza'. Because Mastour is 'only' a kid.
2: Pippo. His passion on the sideline is very Conte-esque. He wants his players to work, and tbh, they did. Thery respond to him, they respect him, because they know he respects them.
3: Shirts are growing on me. Don't like the crest much but the design is starting to seep into my consciousness.
4: A real positive of Pippo is he is more than happy to give youth a chance. These are kids he reared in Primavera, and they trust him. And now here he is, giving them the same chance in the first team.
While it's incredibly early days, and Monza are not Real Madrid I saw more passion out there from the manager and players than I can remember pretty much the whole of last season.

The kid is looking very good so far. Obviously this isn't a level of opposition where you can really judge, but I think it's a good test in terms of his physique and strength and whether or not he is ready to play with the seniors.
