Inter - Bayern Munich (27 Sep 06)

[padee]

I'm going over to the game on Wednesday - will be in Curva Nord.

I predict a 2-1 victory with goals from Crespo & Figo

Will be a hard game - Bayern seem to be going well.

 

[Barbas]

i heard hargreaves broke his leg, is it true? how bad is it? and how important is he to bayern squad this year? coz i am not following bundesliga for quite sometime (some years perhaps )

 

[Durai]

toughest game of this season so far.

 

[Pajo]

Yeah, Hargreaves did broke his leg... And it's qiute bad, few months out of the game. He is very important player in Bayern lately, and he was in great form before he broke hjis leg. But hinestly, I didn't want that o him, he is great player. And espetially coz he intended to leave Bayern in January for ManU ...

Anyway, I have high hopes for this game. On Allianz Arena we can't hope for more than draw, so this is a must win game for us. And I believe we will win it, even without Vieira and Cambiasso, we have great subs.

 

[La Grande Inter]

Our Squad is Much better then Milans Even more better then Milans Last season with Shevchenko there, And Milan won 4-1, if they can do it, then we can do it, Our Confidence has boosted up since that Roma Victory, We played Great football. ( Although The scoreline shouldve been 2-0 or 3-0, Nevertheless, Still a win and still Picked up 3 Points. I Have Faith in this Inter, Especially with this Squad. Im Predicting 1-0 though, as Munich do not seem to be an Easy Opponent, Toughest in this Group, We will beat them but we sill struggle against them in the away Game, Internazionale should win the Rest of the games in this Group Stage. FORZA INTER! SOLO INTER!!

Don't get carried away though, although we do have a good squad and we could win like Milan did, there are some points to consider:

1- Milan and Inter are always different in the CL, but Milan is always having that extra degree over us that I don't understand why exactly we rae not like them in it.

2- Milan won 4-1 in San Siro, but one problem is that now Baern is a bit different than last year and I don't think that they will be that leniant like last year.

3- We could win, only if our defense prevails just like in Rome, also the real key to this particular match is the midfield, Bayern has a very aggressive midfield with Schwesintiger, Bommel and others, and now that Hargreaves is out and Jeremies almost like Maldini, on the edge, I think the load on the DM of Bayern is really gonna be immense, German and Italian midfield are really tough and this will be a true test for our depleted midfield.

With Vieira out for the red card in the Lisbon match, I think Figo will return, and Mancio might play like this:

---------------------Dacourt--------------
Figo-----------Mariano-------------Deki---

or Figo instead of Mariano and Mariano to the sides, or may be Capitano will feature in the midfield.

The REAL question is, is Adri gonna feature? as sub or starter?

 

[1919]

Dacourt n Capitano together as CMs.
Figo and Stan as wingers.
Maicon at RB with instructions not to venture too much.
as 4 Adriano, lets c ifhe can give us ne reason to consider him with his performance dis evening

 

[M.Adnan]

I'm still worried about the midfield.. no Vieira no Cambiasso.

I think Mancini is going to use Dacourt-Stankovic. But this may not turn well for us. They're not as good as V-C. Bayern's midfield is a big trouble for us. I'm more worried about Schweinsteiger. I hope he doesn't play in Maicon's flank..

And Materazzi is a must.

And something else.. let's hope we don't see a fight between Kahn and Ibrahimovic.:stuckup: Ibra seemed to be worse than Matrix against Sampdoria.

 

[Pajo]

This is my formation for the game:

-----------------Cesar-----------------
JZ------Samuel---------Cordoba--Grosso
Figo-----Dejan--------Dacourt-----Solari
------------Adriano-----Ibra------------

or:

-----------------Cesar-----------------
JZ------Samuel---------Cordoba--Grosso
--------Deki---Dacourt----Solari--------
---------------Figo--------------------
---------Adriano-----Ibra------------

 

[Karim]

I like the first, but let it be Matrix instead of one of Cordoba and Samuel

 

[Pajo]

What is Matrix for??? Bayern does not have tall, strong players, they have fast players. And we need fast defence, and Cordoba is the fastest we have.

 

[Alex de Large]

We need 3 cb here, Bayern use to play with 3 strikers in the last games.

------Cordoba----Sam/Matrix----Sam/Burdisso--------
--Zanetti------------------------------------Grosso--
-----------------------Dacourt-----------------------
------------Stankovic--------Figo/Solari/Mariano/Maxwell
------------Ibra/Crespo------Adri/Crespo---------------

Maicon yes, but not as a start pls!
Dacourt will be fit for this, right?

 

[Karim]

What is Matrix for??? Bayern does not have tall, strong players, they have fast players. And we need fast defence, and Cordoba is the fastest we have.

Then let it be cordoba and matrix

 

[stifler13]

All hell breaks loose-----> Ibrahimovic will give his all ability to celebrate his son birth

if we could pin schweini and van bommel, they're done for. and let us hope the defence won't go as shitty as the 13 last minutes against chievo, it's very awful,very terrible, my heart almost stopped.

anyway, I predict we'll win 3-1 with crespo and ibra's brace.

 

[Durai]

if we could pin schweini and van bommel, they're done for.

who's gonna do that dacourt on he's own.

 

[Alex de Large]

Zanetti can watch the shueni guy (Bastian) and Dacourt the eye-crossed diver.

 

[M.Adnan]

What is Matrix for??? Bayern does not have tall, strong players, they have fast players. And we need fast defence, and Cordoba is the fastest we have.

What? :wth:

Bayern definitely have great headers and tall players, specially Santa Cruz.

Makaay? Pizarro?

I don't think it's gonna be easy for Cordoba to watch 189-188cm strikers.
I'm telling you, Materazzi is a must. :stuckup:

Cordoba to watch Lukas, Matrix to watch the others.

 

[Karim]

Cordoba to watch Lukas, Matrix to watch the others.

Matrix to break another Bayern player
That would be great

 

[alvaro]

-----------Pizarro-Podolski/Makaay----------------
-Schweinsteiger-Ottl-Demichelis-Salihamidzic/Santa Cruz-
--------Lahm-Lucio-Van Buyten-Sagnol-----------
-----------------Kahn--------------------

Santa Cruz good geader??? Have you seen him score with his head? As for Puizarro, he won't play, and Makaay can be a little problem, but Samuel will manage to get him. And Cordoba for Lucas or Santa Cruz, whoever plays.
