Loving his goals, but not the now seemingly requisite shots of Wanda that go with them.

Wha? Dude scored against Southampton few days ago and scored 2 against Torino just a week earlier. thats 5 goals in the last 4 games. 10 goals in 12 games overall.

apologies, you're right. But wasnt he 0 in 5 or 0 in 6 at one point?

so he said that an Italian coach is better because we don't have ime to lose. well, he definitely has a point there. but what would be interesting to know is if the players played a role in the choice of the coach. the media reported a few days ago that they talked to the management and expressed their opinion about the matter.

He had gone without a goal after the game vs Empoli and till the game vs Torino. That's 4 games in Serie A and 2 in EL so yeah 6 all together. Coincidentally we had only won one of those 6 games. Just another proof how important he is to this team.

well unsurprisingly, when the only player who scores goals doesnt score goals, we dont win....
that's more a reflection on, quite possibly, how limited (See Shaun) he makes our attack, and also definitely a comment on the team set up.

Icardi dropping deep to create space and delivering the ball in the space himself for the opener - admirable effort.

Icardi clinical - business as usual.

That's implying our attack would be greatly improved with a more mobile striker like Eder/Jovetic, which while I get your point, I don't see the team scoring more goals than what we have with Icardi. It's not like Icardi's mostly static play is stunting our midfielders and fullbacks from becoming free-flowing and creating chances.

This is true, but I do feel for a player of his particular characteristics we should be complementing him with a second striker, who is more mobile tbh.

I agree with this. His partnership with Palacio a couple of seasons ago was great. Hopefully we'll implement something similar in the future.

That doesn't make any sense because you can get an italian coach that is garbage (im not laughing at pioli but at the likes of di zerbi and these clowns) and if you get a good foreign coach he will understand the tactics no matter where he is, football is universal by their logic the epl should be all english coaches but they suck and especially in Inter's case we are historically better with non italian coaches. They may sense this as players because deboer's instructions were alien to them since he's style is different and he as a coach is not the type to adapt tactically he has a specific style and wants to enforce it and that is 100% Inter's fault for getting someone like FDB and two fucking weeks before the start he needed a preseason to explain his ideas maybe even refine them but he didn't get that I think he would have failed either though because his football doesn't suit our players too. Serie A is not even rocket science as they make it seem and they are not the only ones that defend I am sure had we gone with marcelino he would understand the type of play here. I also beileve that people who serie A is so tactical and all that live in the past any team u play these days with the exception of some big teams just sit back and defend very ancient type of football it doesn't need an italian coach to teach the players to know how to break them as in any league there are teams you play that use this type of football espically if you are a big side and they are a small side,. I suspected I will get bashed for what I am saying but I had to say it

Palacio on a good day would be a fine second striker to him. Icardi alone is a big no. Man marking him out of the game is the easiest job for any defender since he has nothing individual to offer, and that's big problem when we're too dependent on him to score goals and can't do it regularly by other players.

thing is he would work so much better with a second striker too. Someone to play through balls, or jostle with defenders for him and distract them so he can play to goal

The best thing is both icardi and gabigol will stay in the break so pioli can work with them.

I agree i guess the problem is to make that happen we d have to bench one of Perisic/Candreva/J.Mario or Banega whom quality wise are amongst the best in our squad.

u have 4-4-2 or 4-1-3-2 , 4-1-4-1 or 3-5-2 and u can play with everyone plus a second striker if you dnt use 4-1-4-1 , if we had a proper dmf who can pass and position himself well like ruining into open space when we attack then I would at some games play 4-1-3-2 . I love the 4-1-4-1 but medel is too limited.
