xD Inter, the only team who replaces injury-prone Sensi with another injury-prone player, then replaces junke 9G with junkie Vidal. We don't like to become better I guess
No, we "need" experience!

He did his best. Kudos also to Inzaghi for not subbing him off despite his yellow. I mean now we all know we can’t control the ref anyway. So we should always keep whoever’s performing well on the field at all times

Absolutely brilliant tonight, he was everywhere, but I still want him gone end of season - no 3rd year on ridiculous pay, please.

Yea awesome performance. But he definitely needs to go after this season. Obviously he can deliver (when it's a big game). But he chooses not to be serious when he deemed his opponents unworthy.

Incredible performance tonight, what a warrior. That block on Diaz was incredible. Please play like this more often.
Yep. Maybe unpopular opinion, but I would like to see him starting in other big matches.

Sure, we don't really need him against small teams that sit back, but against big sides we could really use his fighting spirit and experience.

His experience does come in handy when playing against big teams, and yea playing him too often just drains him anyway.
Even more unpopular opinion, what he brought against Liverpool especially in the first game actually might be more than what Barella would, but it wouldn't be the case after Sanchez got sent off today, kinda need the forward runs, but he blocked that freaking shot, so 🙃

Great game, but when he doesn't pass first time, somebody comes behind him and snatches the ball. That happened to him at least 10 times this season and it's infuriating. He doesn't shield the ball, at least not every time - and he takes too much time to think before passing.

Vidal is a beast. That was a monstrous performance. This is what I like about him and Sanchez, they bring so much energy with their game. We out-pressed the Gegenpressers.

He's a top player who's generally been good for us, and we'd have been in big trouble without him as a backup. That said, his decline is evident, too many grandpa vibes from him this season.

I respect the hell out of Vidal for his will and always leaving it on the pitch. However before that sliding challenge on the Díaz shot I wasn’t overall impressed with his game. I thought he was pretty poor in possession particularly. He also looked his age in quite a few situations. He can still be effective when used sparingly, however yeah it’s time to move on in the summer. This will be his last big club imo.

Surprised me with his overall effort, and thank goodness for that sliding save. Decent game from him and for Inter.

This dude has one of the biggest on off switches I've ever seen. Completely shit vs bad teams and transforms into a monster vs good teams. I'd start him vs Juve.
In Chile it's the same. LOL.

Yeah, I'm of a mind to only let him on the field in big games. This season there's Juve, Roma, and Milan (Coppa) left, I imagine that's enough rest for him :lol:
