He doesn't fit Inzaghi's Inter. At least he was working hard this game.

Huge improvement and made his mark today. Still wouldn't consider him as a sure starter, but really pleased to see him getting involved both front and back. His defensive contribution in Udine was a real highlight.

Very good game from him imo. It helps when he’s surrounded by technical players (obviously). However, he didn’t hide as much today and at least occupied the right positions to receive the ball even if his passing wasn’t very progressive.

This match I would call him midfielder rather than second striker, very good at receiving ball, escaping press and lanching attacking.

I actually liked the fact that he wasn’t as direct with his passing. He’s often far too frantic in possession and causes more turnovers than any of our non-forwards. IIRC, he once had a pass completion rate of 44% at half time.

Today he managed a 93% pass completion, edging out Miki & Hakan (91% both).

This is the first time I’ve seen him be a functioning member of the midfield, rather than a deep-lying Icardi.

As you alluded, it doesn’t help having the B-squad constantly play alongside a critical mass of other B-squad players.

I think, when we don't have a possession, Frattesi should be stalking and pressing in the central area, form where he can use his ball carrying ability to start a dangerous attack.
Unfortunately, when we have the possession, he seems bit useless.
Maybe he shall operate on the verge of the defensive line as a forward, with one from Lautaro or Thuram dropping in the midfield. Otherwise, we have only 2.midfielders, who struggle to pull all the strings.

It was a great game. He was involved in the attack (as always) and actually tried to contribute on defense. This is probably the limit of his upside. Starter versus the bottom half of the table sides and sub when you need a goal.
