The phrase comes from Gennaro Gattuso, the former AC Milan midfielder, during a post-match press conference while managing in Greece with OFI Crete in 2014. Asked about his team's form, he answered in English with the now famous contrast between good and bad performances. The clip spread through football forums, YouTube edits and reaction videos because the wording was simple, quotable and universally understood. It later escaped football entirely and became a general meme for anything unreliable, from gaming form to weather, work and relationships.
