Ahh, Merda fans at their own forum confessing that they've been lucky and that their defence has been bad.

So many merda fans at this forum though. :lol:

Sassoulo at 3 and Juve and Napoli at 12 and 13, this easily tells you current table is far from what it will be at the end of the season.

Milan can't let anything distract them, we just need to think game by game and win the next one.

We have the team to get 70 points, current pace will get us 68 points which was almost enough for 3rd place last year. Our average schedule over the next 33 games will be easier than the 5 we've already played, so actually if we keep doing what we've been doing in the past 5 games we can do the unthinkable.

As I've already said you dumb fuck, the games Ive watched their defence were easily penetrated, so stop fucking talking just because they havent conceded goals they now have a good defence. If your defence gets penetrated easily but no goals conceded = good defence? :lol:

Good defence is when your opponent rarely penetrates the defence

That isn't true though. Inter's defence has been the only thing that is working well at the club. The midfield has been average, and the attack lacks bite. But the defence, that has been pretty solid.

As for penetration, Mancini is now playing with a very high line of defence, which helps in the possession play. That makes us susceptible to counters, but we have managed to restrict the opposition to very few chances every game. Murillo, Miranda and Medel have had good performances at CB, but I will give a lot of credit to Melo who sits in front of them.

My second is actually Roma. Third is Sampdoria. Fourth is Palermo and Bologna kind of equally. Fifth is any other Serie A team except Inter. And sixth in Inter. I like all of these teams more than any team from any other league.

Many of these choices are based on my time living in that city or on the jersey colours. (Samp jersey best in Europe)

Merda has probably the best goalie in Serie A.
Handanovic is a top class goal keeper.

I don't know man. I've watched your first 4 games, and in all of those your opponents have had clear chances at goal, indicating that the defence may not be as good as the results are showing. The defence may be solid, but great as some people are saying? Not a chance. There will come a moment when teams will become effective towards goal, that's when we'll see how good Inter really can manage those games

I think Napoli will only improve, just like Milan. Both teams have coaches with clear ideas and enough talent to execute them. Both will be in the mix for the top 3 race.

Napoli midfield has a really nice balance to it.
