Sampdoria - Inter (6 Jan 21) [2-1]

[CafeCordoba]

Oh, 100%. Goalless draw or narrow loss against Roma followed by a walk-in-the-park victory for Juve and next thing you know we're in a fight for 4th place. Disgusting but you know it's happening. Watch Milan do what we couldn't, take advantage of their nearest rival and rise to the occasion with a resounding victory over juve. Can't wait.

Yeah. It's not farfetched that we are leading Juve by 1 point before the derby d'Italia.

Perfect day, watching Inter while working at home and getting that first place today. Forza Inter!

Too soon?

This retarded loss was the most Inter thing to do, and many saw it coming.

Who was the jerk that said Candreva and Balde will score?

It`s right in the 1st post:

Time for Candreva & Keita Baldé to shine :troll:

Fucking Candreva and Keita scoring against us you can’t make this shit up..

Anyone watching for long enough knew this was going to happen.

 

[Gaindé]

Sanchez killed us today. The game was 100% winnable but Inter missing and Samp scoring the PK was what made the difference.

And he kept being awful the rest of the game as well.

 

[NeonBlade]

We aren't beating Roma in 3 days, so get that out of your systems now.

 

[RickyMaravilla'sRightFoot]

Losing on The Epiphany to Samp has to be some sort of omen...

Loool I missed the Conte out guys I’ll be honest. These guys couldn’t say shit for the past 8 games, and now they’re out in full force again

Fucking hell man. I think we're allowed to criticise him when things are going badly and praise him when things are going well no?

Him yanking Vidal off against Crotone was excellent. Him subbing him on again today instead of Sensi, and putting Perisic on instead of Darmian, or not subbing Sanchez out earlier, was fucking dreadful.

It's not all on him anyway, how are we 18 months in and STILL don't have a fucking vice-Lukaku is shambolic squad building.

This game was fucking hilarious, this stuff is down to fate. It's meant to happen. Candreva and Keita scoring against us is just down to the universe manifesting it. Theres no tactics or player decisions involved in that.

This was coming however. Our 8 game win streak was never convincing.

that pitch was horrendous, you could see how the ball wasn't rolling properly. Players did their best, including Eriksen, can't blame him. It was just a bad day and I hope Conte plays Eriksen in the next game too, as a sub at least.

Yea ofc its was bad day, its was important game for us, we always have bad days in games of this kind, a games that actually mean somthing..

There has been plenty of shit said across the last 8 games.

Losing a game every now and then is part of the game, it's not that worrying as a result. Losing to Sampdoria away is also something that can happen to a contender, even if we managed to be highly successful against them in the last years.

This loss obviously comes right after yet another alleged confidence boosting 6+ goal pounding during a sketchy winning streak. That's the worrying part. It's better to lose here than vs Napoli at home of course, but the alarming thing is that the loss comes right before a hectic schedule for us that could make or break our season.

10 Jan: Roma away
13 Jan: Fiorentina away, Coppa Italia
17 Jan: Juventus home
23 Jan: Udinese away

If we qualify against Fiorentina we face Mian (or Torino) on the 20th or 267h of January, +-1 day. Not sure if that's decided yet, I think it is not. So it's highly possible that in case we face Milan, we'll be playing a Milano derby 3 days after that Juventus game for a semi final spot.


As for this game, no idea why Sanchez started when he obviously wasn't ready to start. He should have been used like Sensi in the previous game, perhaps coming on at half time. Perisic could have started instead up front, if you can play that vs Real Madrid away, why can you not do it vs Sampdoria?? We need Sanchez in the upcoming run at his best fitness and this was a very risky move. Better start Pinamonti even than risk this, since Lukaku was already out for such a reason.

The subs were okay, only thing as usual is the timing. Conte got trigger happy in the last few games and I think we expected more of the same, especially since we were trailing 2-0. Remarkable how late they were, how long it takes to remove Gagliardini from the lineup and how long it will take to stop starting Ashley Young!

Good to see that Eriksen exists , thought the oregano I used for lunch was something else initially...


P.S: Hope D'Ambrosio is alive and well, that looked like a harsh knock. Hopefully it's just a bad bruise on the knee that hurt like a motherfucker and not something terrible!

It was a bad day in all senses, penalty miss, Barella handball (who'd expect that?) and as if it was not enough the rain was pouring. Even Eriksen's freekick can be included, cause I am sure he is capable of scoring from that position in 10/10. But let's blame fucking Conte, he must have said to play handball or to miss the penalty.

Fucking hell, didn't realise Mazzari had a FIF account

Conte instructs who would be the penalty taker and tactical mistake when a short guy like Barella had to mark TWO tall players at the same time...

Come on man, those two players have to share blame too but don’t always act as if Conte made no mistakes. Choosing Sanchez, a bencher & clumsy finisher to take pen is bullshit.

 

[DARi0]

Conte that merda cunt

Plan B please

I`ll update my signature with this one.

100% Conte’s fault, overpaid clueless coach

Cunte got lucky with so many wins, it was just a matter of time. That`s what you get for starting Gagliardini and keep praising him in the media.

Don't forget the Ranieri tactical masterclass.

I do respect Ranieri but it doesn`t take much to block Conte, probably the most predictable and overpayed coach in Serie A.

Gay performance. Took Conte too long to sub in Lukaku. And how idiotic of him not to sub Darmian, who just grabbed an assist in 5 minutes of play against Crotone.

Sorry but this is an injust insult to gay persons. From what I`ve seen they actually outperform themselves on a constat basis to prove their worth, because some want the validation of society, so your comment beats the purpose.
For the rest I agree: shocked by not seeing Darmian playing this one. Looks like a sabotage - wasting Eriksen long before forcing mercenary Vidal upon us. It`s not Perisic`s fault that he had to step on the field, that braindead volleyball.

I just cant belive this trash coach get 12m , this guy cant see noting, a fucking joke of a coach.
Play uselsess players like young and gags and his subs so fucking terrible! why bring eriksen, he done here anyway, why bring vidal, he cant do shit!
A players that really make us look good not get any min today, im sorry i just cant understand this kind of shit, its seems conte doing this on purpose, i just cant find any explanation, ther is no even minimum logic on his game management, he going to make us lost our minds i fucking swear! this guy is fucking stubborn pice of crap!

Proof of life is not fair: Steven is a Conte fanboy and this is the result of it.

Then again what do you expect with Gagliardini in the starting lineup?

Exactly. Playing Gagliardini (instead of creative player) against park-the-bus teams is totally on Conte. I wonder what else does FIF need to see until they convince about Conte?

Can we get sensi ???????? wtf wrong with this coach?????

The debate seems to be still ongoing on FIF:
a) Conte is a trojan horse or
b) just extremely limited stubborn piece of cunt.
Either way, we lose.

 

[ArmaLetale]

Losing 2 - 1 with Keita and Candreva scoring both goals against us right after our huge win in the previous game within the right moment rival facing each others? Disappointed but not surprised. It was the very Inter thing done right.

Yea i will keep blame conte for play idiots like young and gags and keeps his best sub in last games on the bench for erkisen that never play and just can be good as sensi at this point and for vidal that his last good game was 2 years ago aginst inter.
I know its not his fault we missed pen but it his fault for sub noneffective players as subs and as starters, that shit make us stuck in complicated games like this one..

Yeah, with hindsight we are all grande allenatori... had Sanchez scored, you wouldn't be thinking of that.

Conte probably thought we would win Sampa without implementing the most of the resources, probably wanted to keep Darmian, Sensi fresh for the match against Roma

 

[YoramG]

Alright well, I beat the shit out of my drums for a bit and I'm over it now. Mostly. We had 7 shots on target to their 3 and we lost 2-1

Let's go win at Roma. Need to keep the chasing pack at bay.

This must be the new level... I mean wtf, should Conte be instructing the players every minute, every step they take? Of course normally tall players mark the tall ones, but this is football, sometimes short players happen to deal with taller ones, you can't predict it. What should Barella be doing there, should he get the fuck away from there because he is short? Or should he be telling Sampa players "hey hold on, let me reposition myself, Hey Skriniar, come over here, mark those emus" or what? this is ridiculous to say the least...

Do we have a firm penalty taker apart from Lukaku? Lautaro is known for fucking up penalties, so who should be taking?
