Inter - Roma (27 Feb 08)

[Azzkikr]

Totti 0-1 good goal and buildup, maicon got completely schooled on the right.

We are playing so slow and unimaginative football that it hurts the eyes.

 

[darsez]

totti scored. 0-1. But we have been playing well

totti scored. 0-1. But we have been playing well

lol when? apart from that great cross by vieira that lead to a post hit by crespo we have done absolutely nothing.

 

[CafeCordoba]

It looked still pretty undangerous situation but then Burdisso couldn't contain Totti.

It was chivu who was marking totti not burdisso.

So far a better performance from us. If only that crespo chance had gone in.

Maicon has been poor defensively. Need to improve in the second half.

 

[Azzkikr]

0-1 HT

Burdisso was close with a header.

We are being very slow and unimmaginative up front. Stankovic is not surprisingly the worst on the pitch again.

 

[darsez]

HT...I think Crespo needs more help. We should bring in Suazo in the 2nd half

Forza Inter

Maybe we did better against Liverpool, or Sampdoria ?

At least we had chances to score. Post, than Crespo after this great long ball from Vieira.

Roma doesn't have much possession, we are trying to close down high up the field and Roma has difficulties at times.

We are not playing our best, but at least we play with ball.

Vieira is playing good except 2 bad passes. His 2 set ups for Crespo were kinda impressive. He misses touches here and than, but he seems better every game.

As for the tactic it seems more of an 4-5-1 with Figo and Stankovic playing on the wings.

This half will be interesting to watch as we have to chase the score, and the same will be against Liverpool. We have a chance to see if Mancio is up to the task. He has to put striker on the field.

Totti 0-1 good goal and buildup, maicon got completely schooled on the right.

lol

Maicon got school on the right, just cause he couldnt stop Tonetto from crossing??
That wasnt even that dangerous of a cross, Burdisso couldnt handle it at all. That is why I was against playing him in this big game.

 

[Azzkikr]

We need a second striker, put on suazo or balotelli for stankovic.

Or even just maniche on for stankovic, its like playing 10 vs 11 with him on the field atm.

0-1 HT. We're playing better then I expected and have created some decent chances and a couple of half chances that we wasted. Roma hasn't been playing their best and that's lucky for us because we would be more then one goal down.

Despite playing better then I expected it isn't saying much as I expected a match where we hold most of the possession and create 90% of our chances from crosses, which is exactly how it has looked.

We didn't deserve to be one goal down but that's football. Roma has taken their chances and we have not.

Mancini needs to introduce a second striker early in the second half. I would take Stankovic off and introduce Suazo. But knowing Mancini he will probably swap Crespo instead.

 

[CafeCordoba]

That midfield really needs some spark as there are only one striker on the field. Jimenez for Stankovic would be my first sub if Jime is fit enough. Vieira is still a lazy dog. What the fvck is wrong with him?

 

[Luka]

It is higly unlikely if a striker will come, we will play 4-3-1-2. If Mancio is afraid or has a respect of Roma, you name it, and is playing with 5 players in midfield, he probably won't go down to only 3 in the midfield.

 

[Master Inter]

I agree with you Azzkikr
put second striker please mancini

 

[Suneet]

0-1 HT

Burdisso was close with a header.

We are being very slow and unimmaginative up front. Stankovic is not surprisingly the worst on the pitch again.

Damn, you are perhaps too biased. On another day we would have had 2 goals. I think we are creating more than Roma, we are also creating better than Roma, its just that Totti got a great shot in.

Stankovic has been doing everything right except the final pass, which seems to be the problem for all the 22 players on the pitch. I'm not defending him, but he isnt as bad as you keep describing him, its like Mancini and Deki did something to you in your childhood.

Suazo for Vieira and Deki moves to CM, J.Z to LB and Maxwell to LM. Let Figo be the trequarterista, maybe bring on Jimenez later.

 

[Luka]

Suazo is coming for Stankovic and we're playing 4-4-2.

Told you.:yuck:

 

[Azzkikr]

What game are you watching?

The game stops when stankovic recieves the ball, he doesnt know what to do with it, he waste so much possession. On top of that he wasted two good chances because he decided to balloon the ball instead of getting it under control.

The man is outrageously poor. He helps roma more than inter, its like 10vs12 when he is on the field.

Atleast Mancini's agrees with me and brought on Suazo for him now.

 

[Azzkikr]

anyone want to bet burdisso is going to get a red?

 

[InterFan]

Mancini did exactly what you wanted- Suazo one for Stanovic.

It's pointless to play Stankovic wide at all and this is the one thing which I don't understand why Mancini insists about.

 

[Adam]

Balotelli for Cambiasso. Great sub by Mancini! Even if we lose this match 3-0.
Figo is having a horrible start to the second half, and now just as expected Pele in for Figo.
