Correa should've came in 20 minutes sooner. Can't believe it took dzeko getting injured to bring him on.
Inzaghi is shit,we saw that today. This was big game and he showed today that he is shit. Pioli totally tacticaly outsmarted him in every fkn segment of game.We had chances just because we have better players.

Every game against a team below 5th spot is a must win if we want to challenge for the Scudetto. The rest are 'at least don't lose' situations. We've already dropped points in 5/12 games. Has to go at least 5/30 with all the 6-20 place teams and then it's going to go down to whether or not we win at least 3 bigger games.

Several teams dropped a lot points apart from Napoli and Milan thus far, it will change. Teams like Juventus and Atalanta for example may hit relentless form. We have to be one of the teams that do that. Neither Milan nor Napoli can finish the season with less than 10 game casualties.

He used to make more timely subs. Not sure what's holding him back today. Anyway this has been discussed at length already. If you've watched the training video yesterday, you could tell he's working on some high press (by opponents) scenarios, which has been our weakness earlier this season. Good for him to spot that. But he needs to find a way against the more sophisticated teams. Milan had a solid 4231 today. Their midfield was very disciplined and sort of "contained" our 5. Clearly Inzaghi was caught off guard as we played with our usual "flat" 352.

Except for holding on subs, what he set up today was good, it worked well. Yeah, our midfield struggled, but that was to be expected, the 5 behind Ibra kept constant pressure on our midfield 3 and it's a shame we couldn't capitalize that more in the first half, when Darmian was outplaying Ballo Toure. There was space for that right side in the first half, that is why we kept sending long balls.

I still think he's a worse coach than Conte, but he isn't to blame Lautaro couldn't score from a penalty or the other misses we had.

Should sub in Sanchez first rather than Correa, but i can't blame him because Correa is his lovely boy.

I don't know what Inzaghi train to our players when we defend set piece. Conceded like always.

He is to blame for letting him so much credit that he totally not deserves, he has been poorly so fucking long time, he have no influence in the game at all..
Correa and alexis get so much lower game time than him and still their influence are a lot greater and still they both get middle finger from inzaghi by letting lautaro never ending credit for being garbage since the season started..

Seriously?, how can you say that correa is inzaghi lovely boy while he barely letting him play while lautaro play like shit?!
If correa had same game time as lautaro, im almost sure he has double his amount of goals, inzaghi shit on correa and alexis in the same way...

Calm down. Lautaro has the experience already to be a starter in Serie A, at a big club. Dunno if Correa ever was a consistent starter even at Lazio.

When it comes to Inzaghi, I think he kept the strikers on the pitch for too long. Correa didn't get into the game hardly at all, he needs ball to his feet a lot.

Correa didnt have even the half game time that lautaro get, i mean, i know correa didnt show amazing things so far, but at least he score in his so low game time he play, so why not give him some normal chances as starter and more than 15 minutes as a sub, the thing that make me mad is he not even get a good chacnes to prove somthing, im not in love with correa and im not hate lautaro, but i cant stand this guy waste every chaance he get...

The problem with making subs earlier is that we were tormenting them. Spoiling that could have backfired.

Then Milan added Rebic, Barella got injured, we put freaking Dumfries on because Darmian run his ass off for so long and the game shifted. I'm pretty sure Inzaghi would have taken Brozo out for Vidal instead of Nicolino.

Lautaro was feeling the game at the time and Dzeko wasn't being useless as a target man at that time, but ideally Correa should have come in when we had the momentum and Milan was looking lost at the back as he could have exploited that. By the time he got in, we lost the midfield and there wasn't a player to take command of the game from our end. The alternatives would be to sub in Vecino or Gagliardini...

We have depth, but there's an imbalance and that falls to the management. Starting Dzeko and Lautaro means that our attacking subs are two 'lightweight' forwards in Correa and Sanchez. Dzeko cannot play 90 minutes in every game, Lautaro gets exhausted early and that blurs his mind even more so he's not being very helpful if he's also demoralized during a game.

Yeah, felt really fucking stupid to use Dzeko 80mins against Sheriff in a match we had won already. Lautaro is a good starter because of many things but it indeed takes away the possibility to use him at the end of matches because he's indeed very tired at those times and is usually subbed out.

It's a bit alarming that taking Barella off the pitch just destroys our game if the match is such a top one.

Inzaghi's record in big games at Inter is abysmal. But I wouldn't draw conclusion over them YET. It's not even half season point. Most of those matches have been decided by certain episodes. If this keeps on going full season, I'm start to be concerned. To me it's not a trend yet, sample size is just way too small.

He isn't to blame for the wasteful finishing but he is certainly to blame for his (lack of) impact from the bench. His decision making during the game is quite poor and the timing of the subs wasn't the only issue.

Like i have said before, Inzaghi has some default subs in his mind he always makes despite the circumstances. For instance, Dimarco for Bastoni and changing one of the fullbacks. He took off Perisic against Juventus who was having a great game. Last night he took off Darmian who was one of our best players.

Dimarco for Bastoni is another example of a sub Inzaghi makes out of routine. Dimarco and Bastoni makes a lot of sense against midtable teams that park the bus but not so much against top sides as Fede is a defensive liability. Especially when Bastoni was having such a great game.

Another issue is the way he uses the forwards. He asked for Correa which resulted in Inter spending 30m for him but he doesn't even start him over an out of form Lautaro and only brought him in late in the game. Also what's exactly the point of using both Correa and Sanchez at the same time when there's no main forward on the pitch? It's hilarious in a must win situation we finished the game with two secondary strikers but no forward.

And as usual, zero risks. Even Conte switched to 3-4-1-2 with Sanchez behind Lula when he was looking for a goal. It's always like for like substitutions for Inzaghi.
