He also beat Lazio in Serie A & eliminated them in Coppa Italia. So my question is, have you been watching the same Milan under Gattuso? If so, saying he isn't 'nearly as good' as Inzaghi is a laughable remark.
not really. i remember pioli won 12 out of 16 games with inter at the beginning only to lose and draw their next batch of games. unfortunately the wheels seem to have come off the last few games for gattuso. we lost to juve and were extremely fortunate not to lose to inter too. we also drew with sassuolo who are battling relegation.
yes we did beat lazio twice but to be fair i thought lazio outplayed us both games and we were fortunate to win. let's not forget we only beat lazio on sudden death penalties too. compare that to inzaghi who's beaten juve twice this season (once in the suppercoppa and once away in the league). they were unfortunate to be eliminated from the coppa but are on the brink of the el semis. they convincingly beat a salzburg team which hadn't lost all season and had eliminated dortmund. compare that to us who got hammered 5-1 on aggregate by arsenal. the point your missing is inzaghi did this after losing some of his best players last season (biglia, keita, hoedt) and benching felipe anderson mostly.
time will tell how good gattuso is. if he finishes the season strongly and beats juve in the coppa i will give him his due credit. i'll rate him even higher if he's able to finish top 4 and reach the el qf/semis next season after losing key players this summer like inzaghi.
