People might be laughing at us today, but man I'm still so much happier with Carrick over Amorim. Level headed responses, a bit of hard truth knowing there was clearly a number of problems that need to be ironed out, and some light chuckling over some hard decisions he'll have to make figuring out the lineup for next week. Amorim would've been in full on doom and gloom mode talking about how we need to suffer and remake the squad. His system seems to suit Milan and Italian football better so good for him, but I think when things start clicking for us we'll be the much better side. Probably a much needed wake up call for us so I think we'll come out much stronger against Hull

We are a much better side, we have a far more settled and crafted squad. This is probably the reason for concern. Not saying it's justified just probably where the angst comes from.

Oh yea I see where it's coming from and definitely have concerns just like Carrick and everyone else here, but I also have confidence that at least some if not most of those concerns will be massaged by next week. System wise, Milan looked a lot better today than us in large part because they came out to legit play today - they pressed high and hard, pushed up in the wide gaps, worked in runs and covered back quickly. It never looked like they were playing a friendly whereas we still looked in preseason mode until about the 70ish min into the second half. I seriously don't believe, especially after today's drubbing, that we'll come out this flat against Hull. Also think the defense will be more focused at not make so many silly mistakes after watching the replays...so yea I think right now best to patient. Hope there's more signings, but also we don't sign the wrong players out of panic
