Having got over not being in Milan right now (****** COVID!!!!!. *Calms), I'm really looking forward to tonight's game in Bergamo which is fixing to be a belter goal-fest.
Atalanta has been the most attractive and fun side to watch in Serie A by a Country mile over the last few years. (Nearly a 100 goals scored last year which was the most in Serie A for 60 odd years!). Even if we had van Dijk and Thiago available tonight, stopping them from scoring would be a heck of a job. They are THAT good offensively. The little short **** Argentinian #10 playmaker who drifts wherever he wants is a superb player. How he's not at a bigger club in Europe is beyond me? Superb dictating the play and creating. But he has absolutely ZERO interest going the other way Which is the rub with them. As awesome as they are attacking wise, they can't defend for ****. They are Keegan's Newcastle. With the attitude of 'You score 5, we'll score 6!'
This could literally be any score. 5-3/ 4-2/ take your pick. Really is fixing to be a belter evenings entertainment. (Having said all that and built up a goal-filled belter, it'll probably be a dire 0-0 now haha.).
Up the top the group Reds!
