Allegri's decision of playing Robinho and Aquilani is proving to be a failure so far. Nocerino and Pato must come in at all cost! However, our worst player so far has been Zambrotta. Pitiful performance from him.

Agreed, they have an OG and a non-existant penalty while they only really created 2 or 3 clearcut chances.
We've been better, and you can see how the players feel wronged and they're really showing it. Allegri as well stompped off, he rarely does anything like that.
They need to come out in the 2nd half with fire under their @sses, we can win this!!

Seedorf is playing a brilliant match, yet he is also our problem, because he simply cannot cover so much space and defend. I don't get how Allegri fails to understand this simple problem for so much time.
He did some bad mistakes too,but some brilliant moves again,we need Seedorf now imo,he is the one who can do it for us,allegri should play him in a more advanced role,and take Boateng back to midfield.(I think that what happened in the end,no?)

Abate was worst X-off.Look at the amount of crosses he let in his side exposing our goal.

Abate was part to blame for the first goal. For some strange reason he followed Villa inside even though Nesta had him covered, which made us exposed down our right for Keita to get in. Sloppy mistake.

I think the best decision would be to switch him and Boateng at this point. He cannot take Seedorf off. Imo it always should have been Seedorf or Aquilani not both. Although they both contributed a lot to the goal.

Aqui cannot cope with the pace of the game imo, this is probably his first big match on such a high level since his days at Roma in the CL, you can see how he's one step back from the rest. I agree Nocerino needs to come in.
Robinho provides a lot of energy, and his movement has contributed to basically 3 yellow cards to Barca's defenders. His finishing though should have him hung by the b@lls!!!

Oh btw, I don't get the criticism in regards to Zambro x-off. Imo, he's the only one of our back four that has mostly kept his positioning. The other 3 have been all over the place. VB as well, he's moving forward too much, maybe it's because they're rushing a lot so they want to push forward as much as they can, but VB, Nesta and Thiago need to keep their positioning at all costs, because the game is frantic and stretched we cannot afford to have our central trio getting out of position like they have been

I just logged in to say the same thing. knowing Allegri, they'll come on sometime around the 83rd minute...

that aside, very good first half of football regardless of the result. and we played better than I had expected. we can beat them if we get things right... big if but who knows.

Oh well.. at least it was a highly entertaining game. but damn you Galliani and Berlusconi for promising a world class midfielder and bringing Aquilani in the end! I can't help but think how much things would have been different if we had a world class trequartista behind Ibra and Pato. a player with golden through passes, a player capable of making a difference. remember those Kaka->Pato->goal situations? damn! we deserve better! we coulda been a contender, we coulda beat this Best Team In The World...
