First it was Dida, sometimes he really was bad, but some people bashed him all the time, sometimes just for getting up in the morning...

Than it was Ancelotti, some people blame him for our transfers ( clearly Berlu and galliani are to blame here more than carlo), and never give him credit for the good things he's doing..like yesterday..playing with 4 forwards in the end of the game which eventually gave us victory...

And now it's Ronaldinho...he was pretty good yesterday, gave some delightful passes, dribbled past defenders, has a great free kick saved...always asked for the ball...after he came in we started to play...I would say this was one of his best games in a long time...

I really don't understand your post nalx, sorry to say this but your last statement is totally untrue.

I know you guys are frustrated by our bad season but it is no reason to bash somebody when they do not deserve it.

El Fre, I wouldn't have commented on the game thread if I hadn't watched the ENTIRE game, dig it?

There might or might not be a "trend of bashing somebody, and everybody is eager to jump on the bandwagon" but I can say I'm not one of them.

If I think some player is bad/good then I'll give my opinion about it while trying to give the reason why. I don't feel glad (like as if I got backed up) when someone agrees with me, and I don't fell offended if someone doesn't either.

He did make one good freekick, if you want to be exactly fair,yet a couple of minutes before that he wasted one when he aimed it staright to the GK when many of our players were flooding the Lecce's box.

Dribble past some defenders? To me sometimes he seems to forget how to do simple things only to prefer the easy way to distribute the ball in other moments. I recognized his back-heel to Sheva that eventually led to our second goal. But I also noticed that in one of our counter attack he received a ball just outside the Lecce's box (at the left part) with only one defender. Years ago he'd simply made a fool out of that man, but last night he simply waited about 2-3 seconds for the strikers to take their positions before sending the ball in.

But what startles me the most is just the ridiculous amount of times he lost the posession. Seedorf might be slow and unwilling to track back the opponent but when the ball is on his feet, he rarely loses it.

So we might have a totally different opinion about this issue, but that's okay to me. Just don't call me "frustrated" because you don't know me after all
