Real Sociedad - Inter (20 Sep 23) [1-1]

[brehme1989]

Only positive note here is Benjamin Pavard looks rock solid defensively.


Asllani is being a total liability and this shows why some of us were screaming for an actual DLP to be signed.

He's never available in the right spot, keeps hiding behind defending players, shies away from his role and just tries to dictate the play by pointing out to his teammates where the ball should go (which is actually one of the good things about him as he has awareness, just not self-awareness) and the worse thing is that he makes his teammates shaky, both defenders and central midfielders.
Whole team is dysfunctional because our most crucial player is absent and his replacement is not really present.


I am not very fond of how we're shaped either when we have the ball but I think that's a side effect from what I said above.


It's amazing that we're just 1-0 down...

With Hakan injured, not playing Thuram seems an odd choice now. Desperately missing someone to link the play.

Barella wake up.

Also benchin Dimarco didnt make sense at all.

 

[ronnyle]

I like what I see from Pavard so far

 

[Gal]

He is 21 years old, don’t be so harsh on him, Inzaghi made a blunder putting in such an inexperience player against a very aggressive team, it was always going to spell problems… I honestly don’t understand why he thought it a good idea to field him and Arnautovic, it was an idiotic call

 

[Neroazzurr4]

Arna looks a little lost.

Not just Arna...

 

[.h.]

tbh, at some point we need to stop defending young players and they actually need to perform. Yes, there should always be leeway, but you also need them to actually step up. I cant think of anything Assclowni has actually shown at Inter so far tbh

[Universe]

Pavard is the only one who hasn't shat his pants. Embarrassing team performance

 

[ForzaInterFinland]

Dumfries defending sub-par from the start.

 

[wera]

It's amazing that we're just 1-0 down...

As long as we don't concede again, I believe in our players to step up in the second half

We are clearly too slow

 

[bubba zanetti]

Now I see we play against Empoli next game, wtf, why did he bench Thuram and Dimarco???

 

[cloudq]

I can only assume the plan is to bore Real Sociedad to sleep and then strike

 

[#NotForMe]

Barella Bastoni and Arna all played worse than Asllani in terms of performances

 

[Choppin Onions]

The whole side looks shell shocked. We’re lucky it isn’t 3-0. Sociedad are running circles around us.

 

[via58]

I don't know why everyones blaming the strikers? There's literally no link up play whatsoever happening in midfield

 

[Suraj]

we're getting destroyed

I don't.

I would if some of those were replaced by the bench guys, though.

Exactly. He should hone his skills as a starter against mid and bottom table Serie A skills, not against a team that kept Real Madrid at bay last weekend.

Although, you could say the same thing for the whole team so far

 

[SiamoNoi]

We are in complete mess.

 

[Forzanerazzurri]

Dumfries and Arnatuovic needs to come off

 

[Besnik]

I don't.

I would if some of those were replaced by the bench guys, though.

You do realize the problem is not individual tonight, do you?
