Simone Inzaghi

[rfU]

I don't understand why this team can't collectively press. We had the same issue with Conte. It's one group players decides to press (Sanchez, Barella, Brozovic, Toro, Darmian, Perishit) and the other group falls back into a defensive shell (basically everyone else). And then Dzeko and Lukaku just walk around the pitch ball watching. We're not a unit, no wonder there are gaps all over the place.

 

[Ethor]

Inter are playing, at times, like a bunch of lollygaggers or worst because they are "champs" acting entitled. A majority of it is the mentality of this squad, coupled with new personnel and a new game philosophy. The clock is ticking on figuring it out.

 

[ADRossi]

This team was completely out of ideas by the 60 minute mark and he did nothing to correct it.

 

[alvaro]

I wish that when things clearly aren't going our way, like yesterday, we'd have a manager that could do something ballsy and change formation to go like 4-3-3. I know this ain't football manager but we must have some alternative formation to at least try on for the rest of the game and not stick to 3-5-2 obsessed as a drugjunkie. Conte barely ever had the balls to do that, looks like Inzaghi is the same.

Maybe he can take 6 points from the group favorites Sheriff and get a win vs Shakhta at home and we advance.

 

[varmin]

Which coaches are available now? I have in mind only Gattuzo.

 

[Puma]

Never in a million years would Conte have said before a Champions League game that it was not a critical clash.

It sends the wrong message to the players, namely, that some games are more important than others.

I much preferred Conte's approach where every game counted and mattered.

Damn, he really said that?!
No wonder that the players look so fucking lazy and couldnt reach any fucking ball, bravo inzaghi, now we can have pice of idea why we look like clowns vs this shiters...

 

[bubba zanetti]

If he said that he should be sacked right now

 

[D-Sky]

Inzaghi also said that we could have win the game if we didnt miss those 5 chances. Stupid person also know that.

The problem is we look unmotivated and slow. And those 5 chances werent also the best chances from our strategy. It is from luck. And still we didnt convert them into goals.

 

[vex]

Don't think we should take seriously whatever he says in post game interviews, most coaches like him will say anything to protect the squad even though they know we played like shit. Conte was one of the few exceptions to that rule, for better or worst he would definitely light the fire under their asses after a performance like this.

We play kind of arrogant, big dick energy football without actually having that much quality imo. He needs to accept our limitations and put the foot on the brakes a bit. This combination of ultra attacking coach and players who want to prove that it wasn't just conte, hakimi and lukaku who carried us last season, unleashed from two years of maniacal control, could prove catastrophic in the long run.

Still have slight hope all of this will click somehow, although I really don't know how.

Not only he did not correct it, he proceeded to play the last 30 minutes with no fucking forward.

We don't have the players to play 4-3-3. The only winger in the squad is Perisic. Sanchez can't play as a winger anymore, Correa is so unfit for the role Lazio were desperate to offload him, Hakan is even worse as a LW than a CM and playing Lautaro on the wing would be silly. With the squad we have, we're stuck with 3-5-2. That's why i preferred Thuram over Correa as he could offer you an alternative. Not even a diamond can be an option this season as Hakan doesn't possess the playmaking skills to make it work.

Well... I think he is ballsy enough. You don't need to change formation to make team more attacking. Inzaghi actually does it a lot. Take the Atalanta game for example. Inzaghi subbed of Bastoni for Dimarco. That is actually kind of a change of formation. We only had 2 cbs, with 3 attacking minded fullbacks.

But doing so, you are risking conceding a goal too. One counter attack and thing would stand much worse than they are now. And risking losing in champion's league is much worse than in Serie A. Because the team you play is your direct rival. when you lose against Cagliari, you don't give a shit weather they gain points.

Also, such manager would be sacked after 10 games. Pirlo last year in Juventus did some crazy changing formation. Players didn't know what to do, where to be. Sorry to say that, but you live in football manager.

Yeah, Inzaghi does not take like forever to change. Even if he make mistakes with subs he does not wait till the end of the match to make them. So far he's been more flexible than our previous coaches. I think most of his subs were good so far. He made some mistakes, but overall he made better ones than worse ones.

The situation is not helping him either. Our starting eleven is weaker than the last season and our bench is not good enough. And the players who could make an impact from the bench have not always been available due to injuries. I give him a full season to make a better judgment about him.

We were utter shit after 45mins and we looked totally the same after the break. That's unforgivable. After the break there is only so much you can do to change, namely the subs. But in the break you should do the changes because there you can actually talk with the team.

I'm of course giving time to Inzaghi to find his Inter, but this match against Shakhtar was fucking pathetic no matter how you look at it.

Conte was much worse on that matter.I remember when he was here,we would be crap after 70minutes,still no sub from him. It was so frustrating.

 

[dragondance]

The memory of people is so short. Conte’s Inter played like shit last year in CL, even shittier than this. No organization, no idea, I still remember we were like kids playing football against Real Madrid last season. And it was Conte’s second season, the team was built for him.

It’s Inzaghi’s first season at Inter, the squad was weakened instead of reinforced. IMO the result so far is decent. Do you think Conte can win anything or even manage to keep the team playing like last season with this weakened squad? Even Conte didn’t think so, that’s why he left.

Stop deluding yourself. With this squad, it’s very hard to do better than Inzaghi. He need more time and at least 2-3 new good players. Blame Suning, not the coach. Changing the coach now without reinforcing the squad won’t solve the problems.

 

[CafeCordoba]

I'm 100% certain if CL group was played in spring, we would have qualified. We really found our game after the New Year.

But, we don't have Lukaku anymore and he was one of the keys of our game with Conte. So yeah, we need to give Inzaghi some time as he lost Lukaku at the start of August (basically the season was planned with Lukaku spearheading our attack).

Can we blame both? Inzaghi is significantly worse than Conte. No argument here.

Don't think the result is good enough. We have faced only two good teams so far (Atalanta, Real), and got 1 point out of 6. Both matches were at our home.

The bold part...well, freaking Pioli is doing better with Milan with a worse squad. And they had a much harder schedule. I know, this is Inzaghi first season but he has done nothing to prove the doubters wrong.
