Inter - Udinese (18 Feb 23) [3-1]

[Stefan]

Can't afford another slip up off after samp. Inzaghi needs to get this game right.

 

[RickyMaravilla'sRightFoot]

We will win. 1-0 nail-biter. Acerbi to score, Brozovic assist.

 

[Alex de Large]

Hopefully Lautaro & Barella rest and play 0 minutes. We need them in CL.

Our loss to them earlier this season was only the 2nd loss in 16 games. Our record against them in that time is 12W, 2D, 2L. At home, it's 6W, 1L.

In other words, 1-1.

That loss in 2017/18 was Santon disasterclass. It was also the start of our winter "form" in Spalletti's first season.

Enjoy.

With the edicts coming from the directors care of @DARi0 , it probably not going to happen, though it would nice. Starting Correa (has he recovered?) and Gags doesn't seem to be a winning strategy.

 

[Stefan]

We are in no position to rest players due to screwing up vs samp. We can't afford to drop points here. Not playing Toro or barella is not an option. We are 3 points ahead of 5, there is no margin of error.

Unless... The other's also lose.

I think that is the strategy we should adopt.

Guess old Inzaghi, got the memo

 

[Besnik]

That line-up looks solid

 

[YoramG]

Gazzetta says Handanovic to play tonight. Now, I won’t believe until I see it, but unless Onana has an injury, it would be the dumbest thing I’ve seen in years.

Sky report the same so it will probably happen. They also report Dzeko-Lukaku in attack. Inzaghi has clearly prioritized match against Porto.

 

[YoramG]

Im dumbfounded.

 

[Jnr]

Now why would you risk your season playing a reserve gk who last played in the december friendlies. If we somehow collapse vs Udinese our mental state will be so bad we're gonna get slapped vs Porto. Porto is a winnable round and my god if we can't go past Porto and Milan advances vs tougher team in Spurs. A humiliation.

All hopes on Lautaro, again.

 

[dynasty27]

Just don't break the last minute Sky news of starting Mkhi again

 

[Suraj]

Absolutely brainless decision, limone has lost it. Meanwhile mkhi starting another game when he can barely run

 

[Jusef]

Understand if Lautaro is rested. But switching goalkeepers doesn’t make sense.

 

[Il Drago]

Latest from Sky also talks about Darmian starting over Skriniar and of course Mkhi starting over Calha.

 

[nutsncider]

Looks like the sack panic is setting in for Inzaghi, must’ve caught word of management looking elsewhere. Here come the desperation moves

 

[IM21]

Looks like Mkhitaryan is the only player that doesnt need any rest.
