Hey Neruda... keep being you brother
Our forwards looked like kids next to Godin. Stop bitching about Skriniar, Godin is Inter's best defender, he bossed the game tonight.
It's between him and Barella for the mvp.
Did you even watch Giampaolo's Sampdoria, or are you only going by "he plays 4-3-1-2"?
His "system" at Sampdoria can roughly be summed up as a very attack-minded midfield/attack that's supposed to be balanced by a very cautious back-4(but it didn't, the back-4 were overburdened and they finished every season with a horrible defensive record).
It's comparable to Giampaolo's, except he tries to offset it with 3 CBs(and he pulls it off, most of the time).
If GP had RR & Theo at Sampdoria then he'd probably pick RR for LB.
Calabria isn't any worse than what he had at Sampdoria(Bereszyński/Murru).
Get real. This team isn't a trequartista or fullback away from ticking.
We don't even have a CF or SS that excel at linkup play, to warrant such a narrow formation.
The midfield-3 is also not good enough to compensate for weaknesses in other departments.
There was no way all that would change in one summer.
Giampaolo was a horrible fit for this squad. But he hasn't been hard done by either. His work at Sampdoria should not have earned him that Milan contract. His system isn't optimal even for a squad that can handle a narrow formation like 4-3-1-2.
The sensible thing to do now would be to filter out the ones who can't cope with high intensity and the ones who slow down transitions. 4-3-3, 4-2-3-1, 4-4-2, whatever, as long as it's not narrow.
That means Suso & RR out. Biglia also needs to be upgraded. Hopefully by Bennacer, but I wouldn't be so sure that it fits him(being a good anchor is more than just moving the ball forward). Otherwise go for a double-pivot system.
Seriously you need to chill with this inter 24/7 dick sucking neruda
Were there any post match interview comments from management or GP?
Giampaolo is lacking
I remember in the off-season when a bunch of us complained that we looked like shit and ppl laughed it off.
Now we're knee deep in srs calcio and things couldn't be worse.
At least in the preseason we got to score some nice goals due to more relaxed defenses.
Yeah Suso is A problem but not THE problem.
The skills and abilities he showcased to get to goal on the counter attack were incredible....but he made a horrible decision. He went for personal glory instead of getting the business done.
Give that ball to ANYONE ahead of him and we'd almost certainly have a goal.
A no-nonsese coach would have benched his ass immediately to make a statement.... instead he hoped that the same Suso would have saved his ass again... again loser mentality.
If Suso uses his incredible skills for the TEAM instead of himself I guarantee we'd be much further ahead.... instead the whole team is fucked because of his actions (especially Piatek). The irony is that if he plays more simply and less selfishly....he'd actually have more goals and assists

The team isn’t playing in any specific way now, and that’s exactly the issue. If you look at the preseason matches, especially the one against Man Utd, there was a clear style emerging. So what changed? I have no clue.
I really want guys like Bennacer, Krunic and Rebic to be starting now. They are still much more suited to the possession style that we want to do, as opposed to Suso or Kessie or even Paqueta. That’s where Giampaolo needs to decisively change his mind. He seems to be caught between playing the old guard (who don’t particularly fit what he’s asking them to do), and in hesitating to change the tactics to suit their strengths.
If he’s going to go down, he should do so with players more suited to his style of football. Not with Suso.
Or even more decisively, bench Piatek. It’s painful watching him struggle to adapt to a style completely unused to his strengths.
Why can’t be start with Leao and Rebic with Paqueta behind them.
Whatever he chooses to do, for the sake of his job Giampaolo needs to shed anyone who can’t naturally do what he wants them to do on the pitch.
Yep the problem is for people who see that shit from Suso now. they see like it is one occasion, for us it is millions occasions forgotten cause he scored a soloist goal in da game.People keep discussing that one Suso moment but we lost by 2 goals and could have lost by 4-5.
Like someone mentioned here - if half of hour players look like shit, the problem is the coach.
Suso has his limitations, Piatek has his limitations, but we lack organization, can't create shit and are vulnerable in defense.
Gattuso knew dick about tactics and still had this team playing better than they do now. Without Leao, Bennancer, etc.

what do u expect to create with biglia, hakan, kessie midfield, with rr storming through the wing seriously. we didn't create shit last year either. we were solid in defense, piatek had crazy conversion rate too. and we also had baka.
this midfield has no awareness, no off the ball movement. noway this is a top4 midfield. same shit at jube, albeit levels above us. matuidi and khedira cant play sarriball either. if it wasnt for their fbs and wingers, they would be static too.
not getting a tq for giampaolo was such a bad decision.
