In case no-one saw it yet, this is our predicted line-up as reported by Sky Sports. They have been spot on for the majority of our games this season. Not happy with that backline...

Eriksen on bench again against almost relegated Torino > just another proof that he`s done with him. Wonder how much we can get in January for a player that is never used... but that`s not Conte`s problem of course. He is just thinking of the greater good of the club ;)

It`s just sad to see the absence of activity on FIF this season, you can tell how certain members lost their enthusiasm following Conte`s many disputed decisions.

No Eriksen and no Skriniar against a relegation side like Torino tells it all. If you are serious about giving these players a chance and adapt to their position it is this game. Certainly for Eriksen who played very well for Denmark and could have get the momentum if he played well today. Skriniar should play as much as possible so can adapt to his position and feel confident in his roll before we play against Real Madrid in the CL.

Most of the times every decision of a coach is debatable but the choices of Conte are f*ckin hard to understand. It's not like the players who are playing are the far better players and are in form this season. Eriksen is done that's for sure, lets just hope Skriniar doesn't follow Eriksen out of the club.

The only possible excuse for not playing Skriniar is that he played 3 full matches for Slovakia.

Even still though, should've played. He's a young and fit CB who can handle the game load and needs more time to learn the role. On top of that, D'Ambrosio has been utter shit this season. Even Darmian would've been preferable.

i dont know why people keeps trashin vidal, love his passion, fight for every ball, never give up...his spirit alone is enough, when remembering last couple of seasons and mentaly dead players we had...we are losers for the last 10 years just because of that, loser mentality and to give up easily...

Vidal is 33 years old. He can't play every game at that tempo anymore and he just came back from another 180 minutes played halfway across the world. As good as he can be, and as apparent as his grinta and energy is, it's not infinite, and so far Conte has done a shit job of managing his favorite player.

It's time for Sirigu to have his best game for this season. A brainfart from Ranocchia, DD, Vidal or Gagsi will be enough for Belotti to score. 0-1... or 1-2, if we are lucky to score somehow.

We'll win and we'll be back on conte's train again. A narrow one though, predicting a 2-1 win; 2-0 at half time and they score on 83rd min giving us a reason to finally see a psychiatrist for our weekly anxiety.

We are coming off an international break, a squad like this had to be expected and I think it's more than capable of getting 3 points today, lets go boys 5 mins.

3-1 I'm going for after seeing line ups, would like Handa to get a clean sheet, get a bit of confidence back. Who gets booked first, Barella or Vidal?

Belotti got injured during the warmup and he will be replaced by Zaza.

We'll see how it actually pans out on the pitch but all the broadcasters / websites say we're playing a 352 flat with Gagliardini in the center, which is just.. fucking insane.

You generally play your best playmaker in that lynchpin position, or a strong defensive anchor.. not your worst fucking distributor, least technical and worst player in general.

Pazza Inter no more, but Pazza Conte.
