Great cross, shit header. If Correa is match fit he should come in for Lautaro. Martinez is way off.

Sanchez air swing at the crucial moment :D

Let’s hope that the circus-like failure to score the second goal does not come back to bite us. I want a fucking clean sheet as well.

We play like shit but at least we're winning. We definitely need a second goal. I have lost my faith in this team ever keeping a clean sheet.

We've went in at half time of our last two league games winning 1-0 and failed to win either of them. Not again.

If juve is in this game they have two penalties already.

Not a bad half at all, Sanchez feeding DDA for the goal, I like it. Alexis with some nice touches throughout.

Toro looks a bit lost and Barella seems as if he can't get going, Handanovic with a good save albeit going wide and DDA with a crucial block, no idea why defence is so stand offish.

Roll on the 2nd half, get another one in the bag, Forza Inter.

Sanchez & Dumbo, the two warriors today.

The defence looked very nervous in the beginning, got a bit more comfortable later.

Darmian is so average this season. Dimarco is good at set pieces, but his pressing sense is so poor its ridiculous. We lose the momentum of Sanchez & Co's hard pressing upfront coz Dimarco has no fucking clue when to press and when to fall back. This kinda explains why Conte completely ignored Dimarco.

God, we need better wingbacks. Perisic is the only decent one so far this season.

Lautaro seems like totally average player this season, he not showing anything special, he doing his usual pressure, but other than this, absolutely nothing, he seems very heavy and slow, he very disappointing so far this season...

Honestly i see no difference in Darmian performances this season. The main difference is his role. It's a lot different to be an option from the bench and only start against weaker teams than being a regular starter. A lot more exposure to his weaknesses as a player.

Barella and Lautaro are the weakest players so far. The others are decent. I hope Empoli to slow down after the break as they exhausted a lot of power with this hard pressing.

Both of them barely had any rest before the season even started.
