Great game but where was he when Manuel Rui then Mertens were wide open to nearly equalize in the dying minutes? Was that a tactics thing or Darmian just being dumb?

I was wrong about him, but anyhow we need better fullbacks if we play 3-5-2, players with so much talent wh ocan actually score and assist more frequently.

Honestly, he's probably been the best player overall for us this season, which is good for him but fuckin shameful for the other players.
Sorry, that position is occupied by Perisic.

I can't believe how good he is.

He deserves an Azzurri call up.

He is very limited. 100x100 effort is not enough at TOP level.

He is performing when needed. Here is the most recent interview with Matteo

DARMIAN: ‘IMPOSSIBLE TO REPLACE HAKIMI’​

Ballo-Toure-v-Darmian-epa.jpg

Matteo Darmian believes it is ‘impossible’ to replace Achraf Hakimi, but hopes to earn an Italy call-up in the future.

The Italian right-back is a regular starter under Simone Inzaghi after Hakimi’s move to PSG in the summer.
“I think it’s impossible to replace an important player such as Hakimi. He is among the best in this position and I always try to give my best to help the team, listening to the coach,” Darmian said at a press conference ahead of Champions League clash against Shakhtar.

“I feel the trust of my teammates, the coaches and the club and this pushes me to improve and help the team to achieve our goals.”

The 31-year-old made his senior Italy debut in 2014, but hasn’t played with the Azzurri for more than four years. His last game in an Azzurri shirt was the play-off match against Sweden at San Siro in 2017, which saw Italy fail to gain access to the 2018 World Cup.

“If [Italy CT Roberto] Mancini calls me, I would love it. I have to continue to work and do well like the whole team,” Darmian said.

“I was convinced to move to Parma because I wanted to get regular playing time after two seasons [at Man United]. I was proud when Inter called me and I didn’t think twice about a move.
“I try to give my best, for now, we are all doing it and we must continue.”

Inter will qualify for the Champions League last 16 with a game to spare if they beat Shakhtar tomorrow and Sheriff don’t beat Real Madrid.
“We must have the right determination against Shakhtar, as against Napoli on Sunday. If we have the right attitude, we can create trouble for them,” the defender said.
“We have more experience than last year, but we must remain humble and focused.”

Pretty harsh assessment given his output and age.

Personally, I feel that Darmian is presently doing a great job. It could be argued that despite being in the hunt for the Scudetto and looking like we might qualify for the next round of the Champions League, that we are not a top level team. Darmian suits us well for current purposes but in the not too distant future (next season), we will preferably need a starter and Darmian can possibly slot in as a backup.

This according to Italian news outlet FCInterNews, who report that the initial tests have shown that the problem that caused the 31-year-old to have to leave the pitch during the second half of the clash was a strain to his thigh.
Darmian went down holding his upper leg midway through the second half, and after being looked at by medical staff it was decided that he should be substituted off the pitch rather than continuing, with Denzel Dumfries coming on in his place.
The wing-back’s condition was quickly evaluated afterwards, with the strain being revealed by the initial tests.
It remains to be seen how the serious the injury is and whether it will cause him to miss any significant time from the club, and further tests over the next few days should reveal more
Thank you, Inzaghi. Now, I expect Barella and Dzeko to follow him soon.
