Inter - Verona (9 Nov 19) [2-1]

[Sassuolu]

Not much to say, we dominated.

Lukaku would have been our best player if he didn't miss that sitter, I don't blame him for the one which went through his legs he didn't see it coming. de Vrij is fantastic honestly he's been our best player this yes, he's Vice Brozovic.

lethargic display i felt and didnt think winner was coming

only idividuals to siginal for praise were de vrij and lukaku

barella was pretty poor till goal

but this happens and good teams find a way to win

we do that so its time to stop pretending marotta has assembled a shit team and shut the fuck up fif haters

Barella was actually our best player before the goal.

Barella was actually our best player before the goal.

and hes one of my favourite players so no axe to grind

It will be my first match at San Siro, I hope I'll bring some luck.

so, as I said before it was my first match at San Siro and it was great. I really enjoyed watching the game among the fans who enjoy every aspect of the game and are so emotional. Every good pass or even tackle was applauded. And it was funny when about 20k people made a facepalm at the same moment when Lukaku passed a header to Silvestri instead of trying to shoot

And it was nice coincidence that I bought Barella's jersey just before the match and then Barella scored the screamer. And a guy in the queue before me bought Vecino's jersey I noticed it, because it was strange for me that someone would pay over 100 euros for jersey with Vecino.

I'm just wondering how you knew about 20k people facepalm at the same moment?

How's your Italian? Every time I was at San Siro there was a wannabe football manager behind me talking shit

I think you can notice it from everyone saying "ohhhhhhhh" at the same time, it happens.

The most ancient species in football grounds.
On par with the guys who switch between "you suck" and "you are the best" within 5 seconds.
Sometimes can be the same person.

0:55 Conte at the Vecino goal: Use your head/s

2:20 Vecino going to the bench because of head problems

You are fucking kidding me right. Palacio fucking carried us, he worked his ass off to take every chance as a lone striker, he worked his ass off to help Icardi. Calling him unable to score when he did so much better than Icardi would have in those grim seasons.

Funny how time makes you forget those who got you to this stage

Yeah, it's funny how time makes you forget.

When was that? Icardi and Palacio played together from the season 2013–14 until the season 2016-17. Four seasons.

In that four seasons Palacio carried us in the first when his partner was 20yo Icardi. In the second season Palacio was okay (when Icardi was Capocannoniere) and in the last two seasons he was shit - barely had any assists and only found the goal five teams against teams like Capri or Slavia Prague.

Worked his ass of ... My ass. He was just frustrating to watch. I recommend a look in the Palacia thread.

With Palacio, his effort and the “fundamentals” such as his movement, sense and tendency to linkup, never left him. But yea, everything else completely went down the drain. His finishing, dribbling, technique and physical attributes were abysmal for the second half of his Inter stay.

I appreciate how much he worked for the team and Icardi despite his diminishing assets. But I can’t understate how poor he’d become in every other area.
