Ok a few things:
1. Zhegrova obviously MOTM for us.
2. D.Luiz is doing some good things but also misplaces too many passes.
3. Koop cant defend the same as Locatelli - it was surely felt.
4. Spalletti`s football isnt horrible but it needs a serious tweak.
Contrary to what some think - possession only counts if you do something with it. We are way to sterile. not enough balls to the box, controlling yes but no real threat. Lets just say that threat wise we didnt deserve to win this and we played Sassuolo. Luck is one thing but we didnt lose due to luck.

Pape Sarr - Havent seen much from him although he was short on minutes, basically he passed the ball to the player next to him without anything special.

On the bright side I was actually impressed with Lucumi - While he played our defense was way better.
On another note - Celik is underrated - He isnt the best attacker but his defending skills are at least twice better than Cambiasso...

Almost forgot - That Sassuolo guy Bacola (probably misspelled his name) is pretty decent
Yes, Loca loss is felt here but we lost here because Sassuolo adapt well with our game plan and our player dont play smart enough or they play for themself.

When we cant score a goal, we push and press too high from their goal kick with 5 players infront and 5 players back and left big gap in midfield. They always pass the middle with long pass and always win the second ball. That happen with our first conceded goal in min 64. They play it long and win the second ball.

When the position 1-1 or 2-2 we also not build the attack patiently with system but rely more on individual trickery. Always rush a thing.
When Kelly pass to Kolo Muani and he still had option Oboavwoduo or Kelly back who is free in middle, he try to dribble the player and got dispossessed. Sass play it long and scored the third goal. Kolo is selfish and stupid here.
There already alert in previous minute when Oboavwoduo lost the ball and Adzic free on the left but Bremer able to close him but we repeat again this mistake.

When Spaletti mention about Woltemade late pass to Kolo. I also think is it because he also being selfish or not making good decision. A good team is a team who just not have a good skillful player but make a good decision and play as a team. We still have long way to get there

Luciano Spalletti is considering switching to a 3-4-2-1 formation and making several changes for the clash against NEC. Cambiaso and McKennie are expected to return. In attack, the idea of handing Woltemade a start is gaining momentum, while Spalletti is also increasingly tempted by the prospect of playing him alongside Kolo Muani.

Permit me a moment of xenophobia - I find it so cringe when the Yankee Doodle Dandies talk about Italian football and try to show off and pronounce Italian names properly but fuck them up. Who the hell is "Entoneyo Coantey"?

Whats even worse than Kolo Muani? Kolo Muani ánd Woltemade.

So easy to rip this team apart. Pack the defence. Wait for jj to attempt 15 feeble shots. Laugh at jj when they pack your box during corners that never get anywhere. Strike when jj gets frustrated. Repeat.
Wait for Spaghetti's reason number n+1 for the defeat.

This crap started in the 80s when US blonde female newscasters would suddenly break form and spew out "nee CAWR ah gwyah!!" like they had a Tourette's seizure while reporting news about Reagan funding the Contras in Nicaragua.
