Inter - Sheriff (19 Oct 21) [3-1]

[Ethor]

We’ll take 1 point from both fixtures combined.

It's the Inter way

Does 4th in the group "get" a place in the conference league?

 

[TheNetworkZ]

I just want to know if we will actually score a goal in the champions league this year. It legit seems like we have a mental block.

If we're going to go out like this I would prefer if we don't score a single goal. It makes all of this so much funnier.

 

[Raul Duke]

In all seriousness, this IS the real test.

 

[forzainter257]

We will get 3 points here, we are fucking Inter - the champions of Italy!

This squad is not good enough to make it through to the next round of the Champions League. Even if our starting eleven was good enough (which it isn't) our bench is too shallow. The sooner we get eliminated, the better. One match per week would be more manageable.

 

[NeonBlade]

If we get torched by Sheriff, I am going to suffer a mental breakdown...

 

[NimAraya]

The players need to realize CL is not a friendly tournament. If they want to end this dreadful run and have a chance to qualify they need to put their shit together and score the chances they get. We can't be this wasteful in the CL and expect different results. If we repeat the same performance against Shakhtar then kiss the qualification goodbye. But if we play like we did against Madrid and actually take our chances, we have a good chance to qualify.

 

[Il Drago]

I am expecting their Greek GK to turn into God mode and save everything only to make the humiliation even worse on a personal level.

 

[El Matador]

good news is its in our hands now.

Win the next 3 and we’re through.. two of the next 3 are in Milan.

By the way Pyatov is 16 days older than Khandanovich. Someone here called him a gerontocrat.

Despite the fact that I consider Shakhtar to be stronger than Inter, I still think that Shakhtar has nothing to do in the CL spring and the 3rd place would be a good achievement. Perhaps next season we will be ready and our new players will become more played. But getting into 1/8 and losing to Bayern is bad for their mentality. In the spring we need to play at least 6-8 matches for the players to get bigger. In the CL I do not see any prospects for Shakhtar to play more than 2, maximum 4. And to be honest, I find it strange to read people here who want to go to the playoffs. What is Inter to do there? How do you imagine your matches against PSG or Liverpool?

 

[morrisama]

let me light this forum up. we will win this match.

 

[rockball]

Fuck this group. Here's what I see happening now.

Matchdays 3 and 4
Sheriff - Inter -- we will get 4 points, and Sheriff will get 1 over the 2 matches.
Shakhtar - Real -- 4 for Real, 1 for Shakhtar

Matchday 5
3 points for Real and Inter (we should fucking dissolve the club if we can't beat Shakhtar at home after 3 goalless matches.

So heading into matchday 6, the situation will be
Real - 10
Inter - 8
Sheriff - 7
Shakhtar - 1

And then we will crumble in Madrid, with Sheriff going on to beat Shakhtar to send us to Europa League

Just forfeit the game and save us from an even bigger embarrassment.

3-1 win for us incoming.

 

[Alex de Large]

Basically we should win all the remaining games to get into 1/8's.

Problem of going to EL or finish 4th is we lose tons of money and will have to sell more key players next summer

You mean 1/16s. Not all the remaining games but close to it. We need 3 wins in the two games against Sheriff and the home game against Shakhtar. If we manage to achieve it there's a chance we won't even need a result in Madrid in the last game.

Can we pull this off? I seriously doubt it but let's see.

He's actually right, it's confusing.
1/2 = semis
1/4 = quarters
1/8 = last 16

Weird eurolatins being weird

True. We need Real Madrid to win everything as well for this to be the case as it means that Sheriff stays at 6 pts before the final game with us having 10. If they draw with them there's a chance for a triple 10pts classification where we miss out if we lose in Spain (Real Madrid 7 pts, Sheriff 7pts, Inter 6 pts in the mini table).

Tbh a Europa League spot would only make things more complicated. I would rather finish 4th and focus on the league instead.

Really? Again? ..No, I want Scudetto, Coppa and at least Liga Europa or quaterfinale CL.
Inter is a shit team nowdays, let be honest..for us is League Europa same like Champions League, we need results from Europe, Italy is not enough.
