Roma - Inter (19 Mar 16) [1-1]

[Ronin]

If I was an Inter player, the comments of Spalleti would just make me angry and motivate me to perform better. I hope it's the same for Mancio and the players.

 

[Solfice]

Also, didn't SukaNoviz say something like who feares Inter anyway? I hoe these kind of comments just fire up the team and makes Roma underestimate us even more.

 

[JJM]

Not training today is Kondogbia who is now at risk for the start of the game.
Alternatives Melo in a 4-3-3 or Biabia with a 4-2-3-1

Awesome...just get on with the 4-2-3-1/4-4-2 and hope we don't get countered like little retarded children

Sky says that Mancini is thinking of placing Melo in Kondogbia's spot...
Oh dear lord...

it's become a trend in italy to take jabs at thohir, doesn't matter if you're a club president, coach, or a homeless drunk.
they can't accept a foreign president.

even worse than that, they can't accept a foreign president, unless he comes from certain countries, namely U.S. and Canada. and i'm willing to bet that if the chinese buy milan, all of a sudden it'll become ok to have a chinese property for the very same people who mock us for having an asian property. i'm so disgusted by this kind of things.

 

[Bluenine]

This game is all about the first goal. If we are to stand any chance, we need to take that lead. If we do that, we can choke the chokers.

Roma have gone behind fewer times than any other Serie A team this season (7). However, like Inter (who have fallen behind on ten occasions), they've never managed to recover from a losing position to win.

Fo reals? If so that's just disgusting - for both us and Roma. Both sides supposedly aiming for big things yet can't perform practically the one thing that is a defining characteristic of top teams genuinely challenging for honors.

If you feel like getting hyped for this, did a 'classic match review' of the game at the San Siro in 2005 for a Calcio blog:

think it was the first Inter match I ever went to, amazing game even though we lost.

Yup, truly is embarrassing especially for us since I'm pretty sure the opposition when that happened were of a lesser quality for the majority of those setbacks, and on the other hand, Roma have not thrown away leads ending in a draw or a loss as much as we did.

 

[Javier'sSon]

I'm really pumped for this match. Out of all the top teams in the league - including Viola - I feel like we're best matched up, team vs team, against Roma! Yes, they have crazy good midfield but at the same time they could get easily frustrated and shut down (Pjanic/Nainggolan). Our players should be just as motivated to turn the fuck up for this match after the shit performances we've had since the turn of the year and the fact that we are somewhat back on our feet. There is no better opportunity for redemption than to beat Roma, end their winning streak and breath down their neck.

I hope I'm not being a delusional fan.

 

[Batman]

Me the other way around, we are clear underdogs here, they are on a 7 win streaks and they are more motivated in this moment than ever, I feel we'll get humiliated. Their stadium with their small ass pitch is a jinx to us.

 

[Ronin]

I'm guessing Mancio is gonna go full defensive for the start, either for like 30 minutes or the entire first half while trying to hit them on counters and then try to push back fully on the 2nd half.

 

[tanorini]

nagatomo goal incoming I feel like a clown with my weird predictions tbh

 

[Howl]

If Medel and Melo play then we're gonna lose

 

[tanorini]

ROMA (4-3-3): Szczesny; Florenzi, Manolas, Rüdiger, Digne; Pjanic, Keita, Nainggolan; Salah, Perotti, El Shaarawy. Coach: Spalletti.

Mancini trying to act smart delaying the formation.

 

[Aurel]

Line up:

 

[tanorini]

INTER (4-2-3-1): Handanovic; D'Ambrosio, Miranda, Murillo, Nagatomo; Medel, Brozovic; Biabiany, Ljajic, Perisic; Eder. Allenatore: Mancini.

Line up:

say aurel how come the picture size is so big?

 

[nutsncider]

Plz don't get raped

 

[Javier'sSon]

Kondogbia's not on the bench, only Melo and Gno as midfielders

 

[TGDella]

Interesting that he's reverted back to Murillo over JJ at CB. Could've gone either way.
Worried about our midfield a lot, looks thin without Kondogbia. In favour of going for Brozovic of Melo but we are at risk of getting bulldozed in there. Expect Biabiany and Peresic to play as wide midfielders rather than wingers.

Sticking to my prediction of a 2-1 or 3-1 win for Roma.
