Ricardo Quaresma

[crzdcolombian]

haha yea he hasnt gotten a decent shot but if he is letting a failure like Mancini get called over him and is being over looked because 3 youth players are better than him Kirin, Mario and that dutch kid that Mou didnt even want

Guy has no shot, and the reason I hate him is because he doesnt care he wont play because he is getting paid a fortune to have a great seat from the stands

Solari comes to mind.

 

[Handoyo]

Stankovic, even though I love him he cant play at a high tempo.

Good God almighty

?

At least give me a counter-arguement, don't use sarcasm to make me look stupid. IMO, RQ and even Mancini can play at a high tempo in the CL and Stankovic can't.

It's not that mike money mayweather, I think Han is saying that Stankovic has been one of our only decent forms of attack this year, I mean he is scoring for fun out there. You can hate on him, call him slow, but if he is scoring goals then we can tolerate that. Our team is working right now, we lead both our competitions...let's not do anything silly.

Rumors of him going on loan to Atletico Madrid in January, though those may have been made up entirely because their new coach is Portuguese:

All I'm saying is imagine Stankovic vs. Barcelona. The fast tempo would make him have a seizure. If we throw RQ or Balotelli out there instead they can cause more problems to their defence. I actually prefer Stankovic when he plays deeper in midfield.

 

[Suneet]

High tempo means nothing bro if you cant make a simple cross or beat a player when thats the only thing you have done all your life before coming to Inter. Deki will atleast win a few 50-50 and get stuck in some tackles. When Sneijder plays Deki plays in a deeper role.

Isn't that what most of our midfielders already do though?

Would be nice to bring something different to the table. We were stupid to let Quaresma go in January last year. He would've given O'Shea a very hard time.

 

[Suneet]

Really?

All our midfielders do that? Motta, Sneijder? We play 2 ball winners in Cuchu and Deki. When we play 3 we suck. Deki can do both, albeit his attacking play is nowhere near Sneijder, he is currently miles better for Inter in this formation, anyone who says otherwise hasnt really watched how Inter plays.

 

[Trippi]

He would've given O'Shea a very hard time.

Yeah,definitely. He was the missing piece against ManU,you are saying?

 

[minterke]

Motta is not a Sneijder. Motta is another Cambiasso. Instead of playing Motta, Cambiasso AND Stankovic we should at least TRY and incorporate Quaresma/SMB to offer some type of player who can run at defenders and open up play for our forwards.

 

[maxw]

I don't think Motta is Sneijder but he isn't really Cambiasso neither. He is more competent in offense and he is a better passer. First I thought Motta should replace Stankovic, but when Stankovic is playing so good and Motta keeps getting injured it gets hard to choose

 

[CafeCordoba]

IMO Motta is almost like Cambiasso. He has surely better passing and ball control but that's about it. He doesn't contribute offensive much, other than those passes.

I'm not saying we should try Quaresma/Mancini just because we have same kind of midfielders. I'm just saying Motta is just like Inter midfielders, Sneijder not counted.

I didn't say all our midfielders do that, i said most do that. Sneijder being the exception. I don't think Motta has much flair or creativity.

We play 3 ball winners usually - Zanetti, Cambiasso plus one of Muntari/Stankovic.

 

[Il Muro]

Yeah,definitely. He was the missing piece against ManU,you are saying?

Nope that's not what i'm saying.

All i'm saying is he would've been useful against them. Man Utd's weakness was at RB, yet we didn't exploit it at all. Muntari couldn't make a simple pass or cross all night while Santon kept cutting inside and never really tested O'Shea. The one time that Zlatan pulled out wide and tested him, he created our best chance of the game for Adriano.

 

[shahz_nerazzurri]

Good God almighty

Seriously though, the problem with Quaresma is that he cant play at any tempo.
I think Quaresma can succeed in a tempo, in which he is the only payer on the pitch.

I dont want us to send him out on loan again, he will just be back with us after he flops at his new club. We should stop caring about making money back on him, save our losses on his wages, and send him back to Pinto Da Costa for free.
I dont think there are any players who have commanded such a big wage, such a huge trasnfer fee, have been this useless for us. At we got Solari for free. And if you compare Solari's perfromance with Quaresma's, Solari seems like a regular Maradona.

 

[Wallace]

IMO Motta is almost like Cambiasso. He has surely better passing and ball control but that's about it. He doesn't contribute offensive much, other than those passes.

Motta can go into the box and finish off goals, his finishing and tactical runs are definitely better than Cambiasso. Just like the goal against Milan. His defensive work and work rate, on the other hand, is worse than Cambiasso.

That's what he has shown in Genoa anyway.

At most, give O'Shea something to think about, but not much more than that. For the umpteenth RQ7 doesn't have the football intelligence, he doesn't know what to do with the ball when he gets it. We've seen him mess up 1v1s countless times versus serie A defences, perhaps every single time. So what makes you think he can trouble O'Shea who is much stronger,decently quick, and vastly experienced?

No one said he had football intellegence. He does have the pace and trickery to make a fool out of someone like O'Shea.

Domestic form tends to go out of the window for big CL games like that as we've seen in the past with big money flops like Sheva and Veron.
