This thread took a weird turn but since we are on the subject ... Mourinho's Inter was stronger overall but Inzaghi's current Inter is way more entertaining. Mourinho would have never played like this and would have never taken so many risks. Both are some of the strongest teams Inter had but that 2010 team was something else. With a finisher like Milito you can easily argue that this Inter may have reached new heights.
Milito is a good point, but also Eto´o, Sneijder... we have a problem upfront when it comes to scoring goals. Lautaro as every year dissapears for some months. Thuram can do a lot of things maybe, scoring is anyway not hes talent. Other players are just doing the job but no one was like Sneijder, he was basically assist man and also had a good shot to score. Miky and Barella are not like that, Cahla maybe could, but not in this 352.
I was reading a lot of things here after Atletico-Inter, for me it's clear, we wasted too much oppurtunitys. About other things i don't care. If we want to discuss about our playing style, effort, what else, everything bullshit. Barella and Thuram had ridiciolous oppurtunitys, same thing in the first leg, there was like at least 3 golden missed opportunitys. That was the main reason why we are out of the CL. The same thing happend against City last year so nothing new. We lost with Lukaka fuck ups but Thuram is even worse at scoring.

while we keep making excuses like the lack of quality at the bench (which isn't true) others just grind through their way to the semis despite all obstacles.

i dont like our attacking players but we were 1-0 from first game and scored another one making it 2-0

and our defence let them score two goals, good teams dont shit pants like that

defenders fucked us not our attack

Agree but defence tend to get disorganized once you replace one of its elements towards the end of the game, especially when the pressure is too high. We have experienced that many times in the past and it always backfired.

Looks like I'll watch The Real "Crooks" vs "The how many financial cheats can you get away with" City, while keeping an eye on the Bayern vs Arsenal match, today.

Skriniar was almost always fooled by pacy and technical players
I mean I agree with most of the things you said, but this? I think it is more like

"Skriniar almost always bullied pacy and technical players"

Atletico being eliminated by a mediocre Borussia Dortmund team just shows that we could've and should've done better. We missed a golden opportunity to go at least to the semis.
It's not their first time. Few years ago they eliminated the holders Liverpool just to get eliminated by Leipzig in the next round. They are a very hot and cold side.

Does that mean Leipzig > Liverpool that year? And that Leipzig player was more world class than Liverpool like a few here suggested yesterday?

Looks like Saka and Oodegard are fit, should be a good game.

Precisely. And Liverpool fans are still pissed about that elimination and go to sleep crying since then.

Arsenal looked quicker in the first half.

City did not look sharp in the first half. Something needs to change if they want to turn this tie around.
