This year is the battle if the chokers - Inzaghi, Pioli and Spalletti

Watch Allegri somehow win

 

[Sawyer]

Imagine a manager with silverware this season and 2nd in league with game in hand that takes them 1st getting shit on constantly.

Only Inter fans...

 

[Solfice]

Lets not get all doom and gloom yet.

Inter are still potentially ahead if the game in hand against Bologna is won, but the attacking ineffectiveness is surely worrying.

That's a really big if....

 

[Hikonyán]

Are you telling me the best solution is to (1) play Skriniar out of position in LCB and (2) field a slow DDA against Raspadori/Beradi? Give me a break...

The goal didnt come a fast counter attack, Dimarco was totally Awol anyways, Perisic was waving his hands in the air for a offside that was nowhere there like a ret*rd.

DDA played LB for large parts of his career, he has experience and is infintely better defensively than DiCrappo.

We would not have conceded goal nr.2 if DDA had played.

DiMerdco is a terrible player defensively, so is perisic, but atleast he makes up for on the offense.

 

[Hikonyán]

That's a really big if....

Not really, come on. But our attacking issues are very worrying.

 

[acroMacho]

Many here are blaming Inzaghi...
The way I see it compared to last season:
1, We definitely dropped in quality in terms of scoring when we have lost both Lukaku and Hakimi. Lukaku was our guy when we needed a goal.
2, We can't organize midfield without Brozovic

I think we actually overachieved with Inzaghi up until this point. In the second half of the season every opponent is better, sharper and better organized.
To break through you actually need players with quality, who convert little chances. What we are seeing is just our level of players... That's it... We have many weaknesses and the fact you see it just now is only because of the great work Inzaghi has been doing.

fuck me, how can anyone blame Inzaghi if Lautaro cannot score if his life depended on it ?

We were exhausted and tired both physically and mentally after difficult run of games which didn't go in our favor. No coach in the world would be able to cover our weaknesses after that.

That being said. We need to shake up this results and start winning and scoring goals from now.

 

[Fapuccino]

My only issue with Inzaghi is the team lacks balls. I didn't see a confident team out there.

Make no mistake. That type of mentality sips in the league as well. Forget Liverpool, now I'm massively worried about the league.

Like I said after the Liverpool game... We lost that game because lack of balls, not quality. The team lacked confidence.

 

[bubba zanetti]

Like I said after the Liverpool game... We lost that game because lack of balls, not quality. The team lacked confidence.

Nah,we lack quality,we really do.

 

[Maslany]

Like I said after the Liverpool game... We lost that game because lack of balls, not quality. The team lacked confidence.

Hell no. We lack good players, motivation and hardwork is always there. Depth and quality is missing.

 

[brakbrak]

Again you guys are such drama queens. Dimarco for Bastoni is 100% correct. Are you telling me the best solution is to (1) play Skriniar out of position in LCB and (2) field a slow DDA against Raspadori/Beradi? Give me a break...

Plus what option do we have other than Gags? Vidal was probably tired after Liverpool. Barella had to stand in for Brozo. Gags was the only option.

Then you also need to acknowledge his guts to stick with 3412 for the entire second half. I would be mad if he sub Dzeko on for Lautaro in the 80th minute. But I can't flaw him if he had used every tool at his disposal at half time.

If anything, starting Darmian is a case of over-rotation. Against a tough opponent, it's fine to rotate 1 player in each line, but not 2.

The thing is chances were created, they were just not converted.

The most worrying thing is the fact we let up two goals at home for the second game in a row.

We let Sass counter us again and again for the first 30 min of the match and had no response or tactical adjustment. Just more run and gun football.

I just knew the team I watched against Liverpool was not Inter.

There was a tactical adjustment. We were all-in with Sanchez, Lautaro and Sanchez. And the tactical adjustment worked. We created many chances... The thing is that you need to score them.

 

[Irequis]

Aside of assigning Barella as CDM, I think he manages the game right.

1. The starting lineup was agreeable, you do not play tired Vidal against mediocre team at our home and the option is Gags or Vecino
2. The second half subs were very spot on, he removes irrelevant Gags and ineffective Darmian to quickly catch up. I don't really think Dambro and Vidal were the right subs, but I would give the benefit of the doubt, perhaps Hakan and Perisic were totally gassed.
3. Certainly Inzaghi was blameless for individual mistakes. You cannot blame the guy shouting at the sidelines when his goalkeeper avoided the incoming ball and his forwards squandered every chances available including empty goal from 1 m.
4. The extreme offensive approach is very spot on. It led to wild end-to-end game, but it was necessary since we were down 0-2 at the early stage. Anything less offensive was a tactical blunder and if we still couldn't score, that's thanks to our dismal finishing.

 

[Universe]

Not starting Dumfries was a mistake. You need to squeeze your best players and a top manager is able to do this - look how Brozovic and Barella were 1 card away from suspension for like 3 months last season But yet, Conte was able to get the absolute best out of them for 90 minutes per game without getting suspended during a make-or-break run of games.

Dumfries should've been squeezed for another 90 minutes considering the opponent. He can fucken rest next week against Genoa AFTER we beat Sassuolo. Too late for that now.

 

[dax21]

Inzaghi has enjoyed critical leniency like no other previous Inter manager in the last 20-something years, and possibly more. He came into a weakened squad, following a vastly superior manager with expectations that were set on hoping for the best but realistically expecting the worst. That leniency from fans has about two more weeks of time left, then he is really about to feel some fire under his ass, and that's something he probably never experienced properly while at his mediocre Lazio either.

Handanovic and Lautaro simply have to be benched for a match or two. No exceptions, and no going back on it no matter how bad the games end up going.
Dzeko must be protected even if that means him having to start and do the full 90 minutes simply because we knew what we were getting when we got him, he is doing his best and isn't fucking up in a spectacular fashion. And yes, the standard for spectacular fashion is pretty fucking high in this Inter at this moment.
Get the most promising primavera midfield prospect and grind that dude into the fucking ground in training for the next month, Gagliardini should never play in our shirt for the remaining part of this season.

Also, decision to use Barella like Brozo was a terrible idea, given Vidal's recent defensive performance he should've started instead. He couldn't be worse that's for sure. Inzaghi really has a terrible way about him where a sub performing really well doesn't get even a small chance of being chosen to start the next game as a reward, and this goes to bite us in the ass because it neither helps the reserves, nor the retard starters who become lulled in and entitled to their starting slot.

We are in dire need of some tough love and Inzaghi must step the fuck up and grab the reigns a little.

 

[CafeCordoba]

Vidal was probably not fit enough to start. He's not up to the task anymore to start two games in a week.

Calling Handa to be benched is just ridiculous, that is never going to happen in this season. It would create more earthquakes in the team than what the risk of playing him ever does.

 

[junkie]

we had plenty of chances, we just didn't execute them, Lautaro, Džeko and Perišić could easily score, yes we lack quality, but it's not like we don't create chances, Sassuolo had like 2 shots on target and scored twice, just like Milan

 

[CafeCordoba]

Sassuolo had lot more chances and super dangerous attacks. That was of course because we piled pressure on their half and didn't have many players in our half.

But the issue against Sassuolo was lazy and arrogant playing against the opponent and our abysmal finishing.
