If ever a team needed a win, it's this Inter squad. Hopefully they will, Atalanta looked horrendous against Liverpool, 2-3 Inter :interflag:

Kolarov is using the week to perfect his playmaking. Taking pointers from Eriksen

Yes, but Liverpool could destroy any serie A team at the moment. The last game does not matter for Atalanta xD

Conte is so predictable i can already guess the starting lineup.

Handanovic
Skriniar/D'Ambrosio - De Vrij - Bastoni
Hakimi - Brozovic/Gagliardini - Vidal - Young
Barella
Lautaro - Sanchez

It's a given we will concede so we can only hope we can score one more than the opponent. *Zeman mode*

Win this match, the one against Torino and get at least a draw against Real and you're starting to turn the season around. Lose this game and you go into full crisis mode in the international br4eak with everything that entails.

If only something crazy like a pandemic appears out of nowhere and it destabilizes everyone giving us some time to break the bad momentum... Oh wait, that happened 8 months ago.

Tbh pandemic only helped us in Europa League where ko became one-game legs. In terms of the league, it didn't really change much.

Post-covid Serie A results:

Inter 2-1 Sampdoria
Inter 3-3 Sassuolo
Parma 1-2 Inter
Inter 6-0 Brescia
Inter 1-2 Bologna
Hellas Verona 2-2 Inter
Inter 3-1 Torino
SPAL 0-4 Inter
Roma 2-2 Inter
Inter 0-0 Fiorentina
Genoa 0-3 Inter
Inter 2-0 Napoli
Atalanta 0-2 Inter

Bar the last two results, even an Inter in crisis could get the rest. Out of the top 4 the team that got favored from pandemic the most was Juventus as their main Scudetto rival, Lazio, were screwed from post pandemic calendar and it made Scudetto a lot easier for them.

There is a difference between looking horrendous against Liverpool and looking horrendous against M’gladbach and Shakhter.

I would say Inter are definitely going to lose this one.

In fairness, Inter were equal game with Real for the last match though. And I don’t think our matches against Shaktar or Gladbach were horrendous. Each clubs in our group are much in the same levels given how poor us and Real performances recently and both Shaktar and Gladbach are common dark horses in UCL since they are highly competitive. All in all, it’s quite difficult to compare these UCL games with the Serie A. I think both us and Atalanta have decent chances of winning. We need to go back on track and Atalanta need a turning point win.

How is Young doing? Getting sick of his crosses yet?

We’ve had worse LWB/LBs over the years that’s for damn sure.

Speaking of not terrible wingbacks, Atalanta might be missing theirs through injury. Good news for us. Possibly. We did almost lose to fucking Parma after all.

If our only 3 good defenders start (Skriniar-De Vrij-Bastoni) then we have a good chance to win because we won't have to score 3-4 goals. A clean sheet is very possible.

If not, then I expect to concede atleast 3 goals.

Weird to see Milan in first place instead of fourteenth
If Marotta stays at Inter you will change your mind.

The thing is Dambro/ Kolarov are Conte's heart medications. He can't leave home without them.

Our problems in defence have not been about individual players and their mistakes. Well, some for sure, but our problems are more systemic in my books. We do mistakes all around the pitch and the defenders are getting burnt because of those mistakes. I'm not saying our defenders have been perfect per se though.
