to be honest i think we are back to where we were at the begining of the season where a match against Bologna suddenly needs more calculations (i find myself checking their latest form, drawing with Atalanta, beating Bari, and drawing with Chievo...not bad). at one point i was no longer worried to play the "smaller" teams but with our latest form, especially drawing at home with Livorno, i'm not so sure we will get the win we desperately need.
With Pato still out, Mancini's arrival could well be the catalyst for new enthusiasm and belief in the squad and i sure hope he can deliver.
Also Nesta is back in so that's a huge relief and will also help offensively by letting players go forward more freely having confidence in the backline...we missed Thiago making his forward runs too
