Actually, a 4312 would be the Poch way. That way Lukaku, Lautari, Sanchez and Eriksen could share the stage in roughly rqual amount.

I stand firmly by my view prior to hiring the gobbo that he's not a better coach than Spalletti or Mancini.

I hope people see what I was talking about back then.

In my books, Conte is a good tactician in terms of getting team work as a unit. As a cohesive unit and execute his plans perfectly. The problem lies in the fact that such approach requires huge amount of sacrifice by the players. Thus, star players do not fit in. Only runners and (great) players like Barella. Players who will work hard every match. Something Eriksen isn't at all for instance.

Thus, such approach works to a certain level. After that level is reached, no matter how good system you have, simply better players with adequate tactics will prevail. This is a reference to your excellent post brehme regarding modern football how it's more about players than about tactics these days. I don't remember where it is, but please link it here again. edit. Here's the link http://forzainterforums.com/showthread.php?14942-Christian-Eriksen&p=1963365&viewfull=1#post1963365

Regarding Inter and Conte, we are not at peak Conte in terms of cohesive unite and shit like that. That's why we fail to win the likes of Shakhtar Donetsks of the world. If we were, I bet we would win that team. Still the problem is the ceiling of this approach. Better teams will eventually win us anyway. Teams with better players. Peak Conte is not gonna get us to CL victory or anything like that. Peak Conte probably will get us to Scudetto unless Juve can get their shit together fast. If they can, it might be impossible for Conte to beat them, even at the peak of Inter as a cohesive unit. He won at Italy because the competition was total shit.

We NEED to play with talents like Eriksen, not with the bhenchods like Gagliardini. And Conte clearly is not a coach for that job. He's a man whose peak will be Scudetto. And when we want to take a next step from there, we need to find another coach and big part of the work Conte has done with the team, goes in vain. We will play different football by then and all the investments tailor-made for Conte goes down the drain.

I think that Conte will be sacked at the end of the season, but in january Eriksen will be sent on loan to some Premier team...
This season is gone, even scudetto it's a dream at the moment.

True, but the important thing is that those 4 play together.

Play like this 4-2-3-1
Handa-Darmian,Skriniar,DeVrij,Bastoni-Barella,Brozović(Vidal)-Hakimi,Eriksen(Sanchez),Perisic(Eriksen)-Lukaku(Lautaro).
We need new coach with plan A, B,C,D. Enough of the Clown(te).

Yes, that's the optimal scenario at this point in my books also. Let Conte squeeze the Scudetto out of this squad, then send him the fuck out. Bring back Eriksen and build from that.



Yes this, will add the link to my original post.

Lautaro
What was supposed to be plan B here? Plan B if Lautaro hits the crossbar or if players keep shooting at GK?

Different setup, different attacking schemes. Fucking anything to try things differently. We weren't hitting crossbars in the second half that much. We hit Lukaku on the forehead though.

This is exactly the reason why Conte is being bashed. You, a forum member, have the same ideas as he does, a person earning 8 digits a year to come up with such plans.

The fact that various other members have better ideas that are actually able to be executed makes it even scarier how badly Inter is run.

He doesnt have a plan B and doesn like making subs, he wants to win with the players and setup he chose because he believes it will work regardless, he is willing to go down with the ship so to speak.

Fuck you with your balance Gagliardini solution. We need ONE goal to open up the entire season and you bench Eriksen because he can't defend?!? This is cowardice to the next level. Have we still Medel Melo Kdog Conte would definitely set them starters. Fuck this bullshit.

Need to admit I was wrong about Conte. The lack of urgency from this team to wanna progress from the cl group is very depressing.

What you mention here is just two chances not converting, clearly the luck was not with Lautaro. The most important part here is to generate enough of these situations, the more situations you generate the less luck you need, eventually one of them will convert into a goal.

Now if you are in Conte's shoes, knowing that you MUST win, then you must open up a little and sacrifice a little of your tight defense in order to field more offensive players and thereby be able to generate more chances. The point here is, especially yesterday you have absolute NOTHING to loose as a draw will give you nothing. Therefor it makes absolutely no sense how he RE-acted yesterday.

He should have been Proactive, and made all his subs at least 30 mins earlier, but he has no situation awareness/sense of urgency, he just kind of stuck with his usual approach like no sub before around the 70th minute, FFS, like if it was a cake recipe he was following(so predictable). My eyes were bleeding when looking at him "orchestrating" Inters game, actually I think castrating Inters game/cl chance, would be a more proper term here.

He doesn think he should be pro-active. In his mind he was pro-active with the players and formation he already choose to start.
