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

[crzdcolombian]

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

yup want them to bench Barella. Mhki hasn't done anything either

 

[quachtinh]

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

The same fans who said Inzaghi didn't give him a chance eh?

 

[Howl]

Half time couldnt come soon enough, Sociedad look dangerous everytime they move forward, whereas we do the opposite and crap our pants.

 

[IM21]

this was the worst half I have ever seen by Inter... Absolutely pathetic.

 

[El Matador]

The good thing is, it's only 1-0 at HT, still a lot of time to get back in this and win. Hopefully we see changes at half time to fix this mess. Get Frattesi, Di Marco, and Thuram on.

 

[YoramG]

I’d kick Barella’s ass all the way to the bench and then back to Milan. What the fuck is he doing.

 

[wera]

Barella is being a total hothead yet again

 

[Fapuccino]

We're clearly not used to playing against a high paced high pressing team.

 

[Damageplan]

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...

Was about to say something similar but just got lazy. Our team is really off balance.
Also Arnautovic should not start against anyone better than Empoli.

 

[Choppin Onions]

Asllani and Arna need to be yanked off immediately. Barella needs to get his shit together cos he’s been well below standard to start the season.

 

[NimAraya]

What a catastrophic first half. The only positive thing from this half is that we only conceded one goal. We need a completely different second half if we want to get something from this match.

 

[Raul Duke]

The only positive thing about the half was the whistle blowing at the end.

Thuram and Klaassen need to come on ASAP.

 

[pupivn]

Tbf we have too many changes in line up, it’s understandable we play poorly, don’t know what Inzaghi are up to, to make statement to some players?

 

[#NotForMe]

I don;t understand why we are playing into their tempo, of all the nights, we choose tonight to play fast pace

 

[ADRossi]

We're clearly not used to playing against a high paced high pressing team.

We've struggled against teams like this for what, a decade now? Every single fucking time.

That was abysmal.

 

[SiamoNoi]

I don't want to watch Arnautovic cunt for one more second.

 

[Batman]

Us in that orange kit being owned by that Japanese midget is too painful to watch.

 

[forzainter257]

Carlos Augusto didn't prove he is a better player than Gosens

 

[Besnik]

Very poor first half, they dominated us like big time. It's still far from game over but we need to get past this difficult moment which is more mental than anything else.

First match of season in CL, against an opponent that we don't have much knowledge about, and also a very noisy crowd.

I believe we can turn things around in second half with a couple of changes and also our veterans taking some responsibility. I'm not going to point fingers indivudually but as a group we need to stay compact and raise our aggressiveness A LOT more.

 

[Ethor]

1 shot, none on target, 52% possession, 81% pass accuracy , 6 fouls (1 yellow-Asllani), 4 offsides and 1 corner. Given only Bastoni's snafu allowed a goal Inter still has a chance.
