What makes you think that we will keep on collecting 8 points out of every possible 15? Plenty of time to get back to form, it's not like this team has no plan or idea about how to play, it's obvious some of our top guys aren't in top form yet.
I can't see the future, I am saying that if we continue to collect 8 out of 15 points, we won't win the Scudetto. And we play like shit too, which is why I am worried that we won't bounce back.

We have Udine, Torino, Roma, Juventus, Empoli next, and four out of these five teams are ahead of us at the moment. We should show something good first to be optimistic, I can't be optimistic based on nothing.

Lautaro is a part of it but not the only part. As quoted above the defense isn't working as well either. Sommer isn't quite the beast mode he was. Everyone is just 10% worse than last year

He's 0 for 6 this season...

We played like shit and deserved to lose. Now let's move on. Let's be honest - we have been playing like shit since the beginning of the season. Something has to be changed.
What are we going to change? The squad was not adequately reinforced in the summer to offer anything different to what we have been serving for the last two seasons.

My ass is really burning now!! Sima is a complete donkey! Didn’t he saw in monza that asslani and frattesi together is the worst midfield in the world. Asslani must be thrown out. He's been with the team for three years now and his progress is zero. He is slow, stupid, cowardly. Why was his contract extended??? Mikhy is the second question. The Dude has really gone down in class, but Sima is giving him a huge amount of time, although Zielinski has shown that he is much better. If Sima runs the team like this, we won't see any Scudetto

Thats be quite the surprise. Lautaro has never shown anythig of real note in Europe, even our CL final run he was 3 in 13... His most significant CL achievement was probably the season he was the player with the most shots in the group stage... With 0 goals to show for it.
Maybe surprise to you. Level he reached with us is already a surprise to so many that wanted to sold him. Just entering his prime years,best is yet to come.

Maybe the stories are true then. Beppe telling the UCL is important. Maybe the squad wants it more too. The City game is complete proof of that. We didnt bother in Monza and tonight. I mean you have destroyed Milan 6 on the bounce and won the title infront of 65 000 milanisti. Won 2 stars which most of the calcio players never experience. There will be a time you let off some pressure and take it easier.

Inzaghi has to make changes soon in the lineup. Going with the same blueprint even after these successful trophy years is a mistake. Nesta and Fonseca have outsmarted him in the last 2 Serie A games, he should really start to prepare a change.
From a fan perspective i don't even care that much after the second star, so players will think the same maybe. The problem with this Inter is that we can't remain competitive forever. We have to sell players and Marotta magic will not always work. It's possibile that this is our last competitive year. Next season we need to sell players but also replace Acerbi, Darmian, maybe even Dumfries. There is always the risk that things will change, teams like City Real Bayern can dominate their league for years, we don't have the financial power to do it. So my question is: Do you rather win the 21th scudetto or win(or try to win) the CL? Because there won't be another chance in some year, or maybe already next year, who knows.

Just finished watching it again (yes I like pain lol)
Couple of observations, I think Terami and Bisseck should have started today. Lautaro is a step slow and coming in as a sub at 60 would have been better. Pavard would have been a good sub too but Bissecks speed and runs down the middle would have created a lot of problems for Milan.
Aslani and Frattessi should never play together. The drop in quality is just too much. This is two games in a row where our midfield looks like headless chockens when those two play together. Daarmian was also a stupid sub. He brings very little if you are chasing a result.
Also our boys need to stop with the cutesy bullshit in front of the goal and just shoot. Next guy who tries a cute pass in the area needs to be benched for a couple of games to send a message. We are great when we are direct. Stop with the extra passes!
Anyway, it's early in the year and lots of time to right the ship. It's not like we were going to go undefeated. Sometimes getting slapped hard is needed to wake up a giant. The boys maybe were starting to buy the hype and got a bit too cocky. Getting humiliated may have been just what was needed.
We are much better than this result so let's not catastrophize this too much.
FORZA INTER

We were never gonna win this match. Let's take the L as champs and address the problem for upcoming matches.

Our group was a bit too high and too full of themselves. This match is going to bring them down to earth, hopefully. As for chances created, still not enough. 90mins played for some detailed stuff is just NOT enough. We lacked ideas and barely created anything, anything else twised to sugarcoat it, is just like making a short pleasure to distract ourself from the truth of being ass.
I am saying until the 60'. Not 90'. 1 chance per 10' wasn't bad. Football isn't basketball.

You guys treat Milan like some local teams peasants, even before the match, then being embarrased by the arrogance. As if we are a top3 worldwide and can kill left and right for fun every match.

No, we are not, this is how it is. No easy Serie A teams. One or two clear chances if you arent taking full advantage you lose points or worse, lose the whole match.

Sure best is still to come but he needs to improve another gear for me to put any bets on him in the Cl. His CL strike rate is woeful for a supposedly top class striker.

What does it matter what progress Lautaro made? All that matters is right now.

It's objectively best for everyone that he is benched for two or three games. He needs rest above all, but also other strikers will lose motivation when they see that no matter how hard they train they can't get starting minutes no matter how much Lautaro is misfiring. And before someone comes up with low hanging fruit response - yes even Arnautovic and Correa will matter because there are a lot of games down the line.

Taremi showed that he has decent link up play, I doubt we will suffer much with him instead of this version of Lautaro on the pitch.


Congratulations to Milan on well deserved win.

5-0 would be perfect
before the match I wrote on another platform that expect a draw. Since the MC match was very exhausting and most likely nerazzurri will tramp. It seemed hard to play 2 big games during a week. Milan is not shitty team. When I saw the forecast 5-0 here thought if the ballers approach the match so relaxedly as well then there could be a defeat
