Milan Škriniar

[IM21]

So let me tell you fact,Bastoni is not even close to pass acuracy compared to Skriniar...His passes are fast and acurate,this how modern footbal looks like btw...Do you like slow and unacurate passes?
Do you question whether a big club like PSG can judge how a quality CB should look like? Even our management offered 6mil for him, but according to you Skriniar is nothing compared to Bastoni and Darmian?
You write absolute rubbish...

yes, Bastoni's passes probably have a worst % cause they are more risky and are performed in the attacking area. How many crosses does Bastoni have during a game, compared to Skriniar?.. Also, i did not say Skriniar is nothing compared to Darmian or Bastoni. I actually said he's a better defender than Bastoni, so don't put words in my mouth. All i tried to say was, we looked more fluid with 2 wide CB's that are good with the ball and can move forward... Also, I said he'll do fine in France, so yes, i am sure PSG did a good move, especially if they will play in a 4 man defense. I am also pretty sure I'd like Skriniar more if Inter played in that system.

oh, and btw, yes I can question if a ''BIG'' club like psg can judge players... Its not like all they buy turns into gold. There were bunch of times during their ''BIG'' era that they bought giant flops. Lucky for them, they have money, so they can spend 30M for trash players like Jese and Krychowiak and when these players don't perform, they just get another player. Its very fucking easy when you can spend money.

Dude,.please stop with the nonsense. Almost every second cross of Skrinar goes off the target.

Skriniar was from a nobody at Sampdoria to a worldclass at Inter.

We paid a 23-year-old CB from Serie A, not Italian, 34M€. We wouldn't pay that much money for "nobody".

This feels so 2017 when his price went up every time someone mentioned it.

Now it's reached 34m

 

[nurko]

Wasn't it something like 13m?

12m to be exact.

Inter Only Paid €12 M In Cash For Milan Skriniar

The signing of Slovakian center back, Milan Skriniar has been one of the best deals Inter has made in the last ten years. There is no doubt about his instant contribution to the squad, but what is incredible is the deal that took place. Calcio e Finanza published the financial statements of Sampdoria and the economic outlines of the transfer that took place over the summer.

The transfer was broken down as follows: Milan Skriniar cost Inter €5 million + Gianluca Caprari + €7 million in bonuses. To break it down a little further, Inter bought Skriniar for €20 million euros plus 6.93 in bonuses. On the flip side, Inter sold Gianluca Caprari to Sampdoria for 15 million euros.

To sum things up, Inter paid out €5 million cash to Sampdoria for arguably one of the best center backs in Serie A this season, who did not miss a single match. At the end of the season, the €7 million in bonuses were in effect, so the overall sale came out to €12 million.

He has the highest anticipation when it comes to tackling the ball. He has an excellent physique, I don't think there's anyone who can defeat him at shoulder to shoulder duels. He is fairly good in the air, can score headers when corners are taken. But passing/crossing? Please...

 

[Corrode]

passing and crossing aren't defenders basic job. their basic job is defend their box, defend their zonal play

Dude,.please stop with the nonsense. Almost every second cross of Skrinar goes off the target.

Apart from the fact that Skriniar almost never makes crosses because that's not his job...Why would a CB even make a crosses in the first place? But I can't help but mention his cross in the last match on Lautaro,it was pretty good what do you say you expert?
And to say that Skriniar's weak point are passes can only be said by an absolute fool or a person who calls football soccer...
Read this clowns... How could this even happen to player if his weak point are passes?

Inter Defender Milan Skriniar Has The Best Passing Accuracy In Serie A

No player to have started a game in Serie A thus far this season have a better pass success rate than Inter defender Milan Skriniar according to

Not sure. But my reference point is transfermarkt. I know its not 100% accurate, but I think it's the best tool we have.

Bastoni makes crosses and long passes in order to score goals. And this works very well for him, as he has 5 assists so far. Skriniar's crosses are mostly when he wants to change the flank of the attack, and that rarely work. His passes are not exactly weak point, but most of them are safe. Gary Medel also had great percentage accurate passing, but 95% of his passes were side and backwards. Same with Skrinar.

 

[CafeCordoba]

Bastoni is a modern, offensively capable centerback. Skriniar is in-your-face, no-bullshit centerback of the older times. Eyetest of everyone watching Inter games can tell you this and no amount of stats will change it.

@varmin already explained the reason for the stats. Bastoni does offensive actions with the ball a lot more than Skriniar. This is purely because he has capability to do so. This is also why we don't see Skriniar doing forward runs to the box as ofter as Bastoni. Bastoni has better capabilities to do stuff with the ball. Skriniar is the guy who concentrates on hard-ass defending.

Bastoni got 7 asists in his whole carrer so stop your hyping BS...I don't deny that Bastoni has a great ability to centre the ball compared to other CBs... I'm just saying that to say that Skriniar's weakness is passing is total nonsense...Skriniar plays a little more safely compared to Bastoni but it also depends on the coach's instructions...Because if you check stats under Spalleti Skriniar was playing more forward then under Inzaghi...
These are the numbers for whole carrer...Look at progression stats... But you can see also passes by scrolling down and see that Skriniar has better accuracy in all short,medium,long passes than Batony...

I don't say that his passing is weak, just his overall contribution in attack is poor. Skrinar struggles to handle and keep the ball, because his technical ability is poor. See that every time when he goes in attack, he needs first couple of moments to stop and handle the ball, then to look for a teammate and pass. All of this process takes a lot of time and it's not effective. Compare how smooth this happens on the other side with Bastoni. See how Darmian scored a goal against Atalanta cutting through the middle, when he was playing on Skrinar's position. Those two players have better ball handling to do those stuffs, Skrinar does not. This is the reason, why he is more easy to replace for me. I didn't say that he is bad defender or player, or something similar.

Infraction given for insulting another forum member. Congratulations, this is the first infraction we've had to issue since March 2022.

You have no idea what you are talking about,there is no other player in this team what is even close to Skriniar in terms of consistency of performance over all these years...I tell you what.Skriniar was stagnating here,because of management and all teammates below his level except maybe Brozo...Lautaro has one good half season,Barella 1 game play like a God other 3 games like sh.t...Do you remember in CL Barella stupid Red card when we need him the most?You have no idea dude...Bastoni is talent but not even close to Skriniar in terms of importancy for the team...You are exactly the malicious fan I was talking about.
Skriniar doesnt have passes?Look at his stats pass accuracy you clown....
