What Mancini is likely to do based on who he called up and the comments he made in this morning's conference:

---------------Toldo----------------
Maicon-Cordoba-Samuel-Maxwell
---JZ----Cambiasso----Dacourt---
-------------Stankovic-------------
----Ibra------------------Suazo----

Most likely he'll sub in Figo (or start him instead of Dacourt with deki at LCM) at some point if we're lacking creativity (usual)... and then sub in either cruz or crespo for one of the strikers if needed...
He stated that Chivu wasn't looking good these past days, that Crespo wouldn't start (what a surprise) and something else about burdisso...​

i hope it's Ibra-Suazo, Crespo wont start (b'coz mancini said so) and Cruz is not inter starting material (he does well only when he comes from the bench)

Well, Cruz is Inter starting material when there are other strikers not able to start the match.

Cruz will start the match because Suazo has back problem.

To those who are attacking Mancini for not picking Adriano, can you people give me a reason for that?? Despite his awful form in the last two years or so the coach and the culb has always supported him and what did we get in return?! ZERO!!

I'm 100% behind the coach's decision. It all depends on Adriano now as he has to improve and prove us wrong, but judging from what I've seen before I can't see this thing happening.

If Crespo isn't fully fit yet, which Mancini stated. Then why not bring Adriano? Makes no sense, or isn't Adriano fit either ?

so basically, you're saying that adri's current condition is worst than an injured suazo and an unfit crespo?

you, like mancini, would do great as stand up comedians...

again, i don't want adri to start and if all our other 4 strikers were in form and healthy, then i'd understand mancini's position...

however, 2 of our strikers are nowhere near even 90%, yet mancini is showing how vindictive he is by not picking adriano...

so when cruz fails again today, what options do we have on the bench??
an injured suazo and an unfit crespo

expect another poor result today for bad management of the team again...

An injured Suazo, unfit Crespo and inexperienced Balotelli all are better than out of form Adriano. That's my opinion and you're you're not obliged to accept it.

Adriano should've taken the chance to leave the club and start all over again.

sadly Adri and especially Recoba havent blossomed in many seasons,and Inter is a VERY VERY HUNGRY FAMILY,WITH HEAPS OF MOUTHS TO FEED AND SATISFY

are we going to wait for these vegetables to blossom or plant/buy new ones???the family might dissapear waiting for these vegetables

id rather plant new seeds>>>and Mancini is a good farmer:p

:dielaugh: :dielaugh: Great analogy!

That's what I want to say too...
I think Mancini is sending Adriano a warning signal, which can be a costly one. And he also talks about excluding him from CL :stress:

Its amazing that you talk about Cruz failing(not that I'm his biggest fan). Do you know Adri has been failing for 2 years now?:rolleyes:

And Suazo had a slight back problem, surely if he is in the squad, it isnt bothering him that much? :rolleyes:

And yea the comedians comment :dielaugh: .

What are you all talking about? I totally with Nerazzurri813.

Wake up, Adriano isn't good enough to play a single minute with Inter. An injuried Suazo, unfit Crespo and Balotelli are all better than Adriano.

With Adriano it means that we'll have 10 players on the pitch. He shouldn't play any minute and should stay in Appiano Gentile.

I wish Adriano all the best and hope he finds his form, but Mancini is doing the right thing by not taking him to any game, because I'm tired of seeing Adriano suffering and making his team suffer more. When he finds his form, then play games.

a not 100% fit suazo and crespo are currently much better than an out of form and out of shape Adriano.

Mancini is doing the right thing.

Cruz is only better than Adriano when he comes in the second half.
Crespo should play!
