Nainggolan has frequently taken shots at Juventus in the past, but does he think anyone can stop them winning the Scudetto this season

“They’re strong, they’ve been winning for seven years, but it’s a long season and there haven’t been many head-to-head matches so far.

“We’ll need to be good to stay on their tail and lose as few matches as possible, so we can be ready to take advantage of their slip-ups.

“Why the antipathy? I’ve suffered so many times that at a certain point you just can’t do it anymore.

“But they wanted me for five years in a row! I always said no, and maybe that’s why they still feel that toward me.

“Cristiano Ronaldo? He’s a chance to bring visibility to a league that had lost it, and an incentive for us to try to beat him. 

“Between him and Messi I choose Leo. Cristiano needs the team, whereas Messi sometimes dribbles past four or five players and wins a match on his own.”

The Belgian was also asked about the Champions League and his future plans.

“It’s an ‘easier’ tournament than Serie A,” Nainggolan insisted.

“There are six group games and everyone plays to win, whereas in Italy everyone puts 10 men behind the ball and you have to make a huge effort to break them down.

Ive never followed this player but going off this piece he isnt the village drunkard the forumers make him out to be. How is he in general, is he a smart guy?

acm55 · Oct 20, 2018

dcfcfan1 · Oct 20, 2018

Fucking amazing result for us

3 points dropped IFFF they hold on

Excellent,

dcfcfan1 · Oct 20, 2018

wtf ref

Sognatore · Oct 20, 2018

Errr very excessive red card. He needed to throw that ball out

Sognatore · Oct 20, 2018

I'd be fuming at the team's effort as a roma fan. Very poor game

dcfcfan1 · Oct 20, 2018

Great great result, and what a start to weekend

Would love parma to get something vs lazio but doubt it

Ronin · Oct 20, 2018

Good snek Petagna!

dcfcfan1 · Oct 20, 2018

A draw vs inter and win our game in hand vs genoa at home and we are 2 pts above roma

Just need parma to help us vs lazio

Problem is Lazio are VERY VERY GOOD at beating teams they should be beating. Crap vs top 4, but GREAT at beating the udinese's, spals, away ect, which milan/roma/inter often struggle

Jasper · Oct 20, 2018

Petagna boiz :thumbsup:

Lol. Just watched highlights from Juve game... yes, that was the Bonucci we had for a year.

Good derby for Inter, but it almost felt like Milan didn't turn up yesterday. I think Gattuso's inexperience showed up yesterday, couple of baffling subs:

- When he brought in Cutrone for Hakan, I assumed that Bona will move into the winger spot with 2 strikers. That made sense. But instead Gattuso stuck with the 4-3-3 with Cutrone wasted in the wing.

- Kessie was Milan's best player yesterday, he, Romagnoli & Calabria were stopping Inter. Taking Kessie out for that Bakajoke just didn't make any sense!

Not sure what Gattuso was thinking. Specially the Kessie sub, I think that lost Milan the game more than anything else.

He is a pretty passionate guy, heart over head at all times. But while he parties hard, people usually make the mistake of thinking he is indisciplined or lacks focus. On the contrary, he is very focussed on the pitch whether it be a game or a training - always works his socks off and follows instructions. The work hard play hard philosophy. I can't judge his IQ in general, his decisions on the pitch are quite intelligent, usually makes the right call under pressure.

Inter will miss him more on Wednesday than Barca will miss Messi.

dcfcfan1 · Oct 22, 2018

Bluenine isnt wrong. And he is humble.

I think inter have to finish top 4 comfortably this season with the squad they have. If they dont challenge for 2nd next season at least spalleti would have underachieved.

Yep good post, you're right we didn't turn up, played not to win when there was no need for it. Very disappointing.
