Sampdoria - Inter (13 Feb 23) [0-0]

[Universe]

Mkhi could use some rest too. The old bastard (well he’s only 34 but he looks 54) has played a lot of minutes with Brozo out and Limone having very little confidence in Asllani.

The derby was his 15th consecutive start. Fucking ridiculous tbh.

 

[Dave54]

Why is it ridiculous? The team is in a good place, Supercup and Derby has been won. It's not his fault that Brozo has been out for so long.

He's 34 years old and his effectiveness has clearly waned in the past few matches. We're setting ourselves for Dzeko of last season all over again.

 

[Dave54]

Well, the team needed his help and him and Chala covered it well for Brozo. You guys keep repeating 34, but for that age he did it pretty good. So now Brozo is up, he will rest sufficiently enough.

Luckily Brozovic is back.

Mkhitaryan has been way much better than I expected. Specially given the amount of minutes he has played. Fucked up the Monza last minute for us but other than that, he's been almost brilliant.

Re-organised some early starts on site to watch the game

 

[Jane The Virgin]

Squeeze as much as we can from Lukaku (if there's anything to be squeezed) and return that bitch to Chelsea, but don't start him just quite yet.

Must win, no excuse. Samp are heading for relegation.

There is a chance to go 5 points ahead of Milan, Roma and Atalanta. Must win.

 

[pupivn]

So … is Gag starting ?

 

[Besnik]

Hopefully not. This is a great opportunity to give Brozo the minutes he needs to adjust himself into the rythm. Lukaku needs to start as well. This seems like a very easy game in paper, but Samp has nothing to lose so it can be tricky. Hopefully we won't be neglecting the game, because it can bite us in the ass.

We could go to +5pts advantage to third spot, so let's not let this slip away.

As good as it gets, however much I'd like to see Gosens play.

 

[Helenio Herrera]

Sampdoria has been more resilient recently but won't be able to stop the force that is Inzaghi's Inter

 

[SiamoNoi]

Time to seriously step up in this away games.

Sky now predicts Gosens will start

Sky now predicts Gosens will start

That makes sense, as I imagine Dimarco will start against both Udinese and Porto.

 

[Glass box]

Hopefully Mkhitaryan and Dzeko to rest and I wouldn't mind Gosens to start as well, Sampdoria should be defeated with any lineup.

sub in Asllani, Dzeko, Denzel, Dimarco, Carboni

in reality it will be Mkhi, Dzeko, Dimarco/Gosens, Gags, Denzel/Bellanova as subs, but if we aren't winning I expect Limone to play four of our wingbacks and three strikers.

90 minutes for gagliardini

 

[Dave54]

I'm looking for Lukaku to score.
