Am I the only one who doesn't understand this "Biscotto" discussion for the Real-Gladbach game?

Are Real really going to assume that we'll win the game after seeing our underwhelming form in the Champions League first hand? Shakhtar goes through if both games end in a draw if I'm not mistaken.

A draw wouldn't shock me in either game, but it's not like Real are going to settle for a draw when they know it may not be enough.

Gladbach and Real Madrid will not be satisfied with a draw in their game no matter what. They don't owe each other nothing. There are no excuses but a clear cut win here. If the others draw, that's another story. Pretending that they'll be alarmed if Inter is winning does not exist.

i am seeing a lot of Barella is injured and wont play. Thanx Cotne for subbing him in against Bologna you dumb fuck. I am sure if we only had 2 healthy mids this cunt would rather play Rano as a midfielder before starting Eriksen.

Matteo Darmian could start on the left wing against Shakhtar.

According to Sky, both Barella and Vidal are expected to be out against Shakhtar and Eriksen is the favorite to start over Sensi. Man that would be hilarious.

Eriksen to the rescue :lol:

Not having Barella is a massive blow to our chances though. Why the fuck did Conte bring him on for the last 20 minutes against a mostly deflated Bologna?

We’re really going to go in MD6 of the Champions League, desperately needing a win, with a decimated midfield for the 3rd year in a row. What are the fucking odds :lol:

Gagliardini-Brozovic-Eriksen for the win boys, let’s get it. I’m sure Christian is loving this, though at this point I imagine it’s more likely for Conte to roll out Sensi in a wheelchair.

Barella and Vidal being out is very concerning. We were also just picking up steam again having switched back to 3-5-2, so going back to 3-4-1-2 with a (seemingly) jaded Eriksen is just a horribly ironic ending to our group stage.

Conte's going to shave his wig into a mohawk and play himself as CM. He was a pretty good midfielder back in the day. Probably rates himself as a retired 51 year old higher than Eriksen.

That would be funny after the 92nd sub. However Conte will sooner start Hakimi in midfield D’Ambrosio in RWB before even thinking of Eriksen.

When I said Eriksen treatment is not only harmful to him, but also to us, is exactly what happened now. Conte forces to Vidal and Barella as many minutes as possible to minimize Eriksen’s minutes as much as possible. There’s no reason to sub Barella on when we were leading quite comfortably against Bologna. At Sassuolo we were 3 goals up by 60th minute, Vidal went on to play the whole 90 minutes (yes he was unavailable against Borussia, but still) and Barella subbed off at 85. Stupid decision by Conte and then he goes on to blame crowded schedules and tiny squad.

Well, the hypothesis is having a 12mil/year coach is having someone equiped to handle situations like this. I know, right

Anyway, these two injuries won't make me any less angry if don't win. This was not a game I was planning to enjoy, but just witness a good end to a subpar group stage performance. I'll engage again with more excitement after at least 10 good fucking games.

Inter/Conte on probation, in my case.

You can't make this stuff up. Only at Inter. Publicly humiliate a player on Saturday, ask him to start the most important fixture of the season on Wednesday.

Jurgen Klinsmann doesn't care who else progresses, just hopes Inter gets through the group. Champ.

Hoping the barella situation is a ploy by Conte to deter any game plan that Shakhtar has thinking our formation will change with barella missing , only to see him on the line up minutes before the game.
