Inter - Parma (13 Sep 09)

[maxw]

This should be our line up:

What's wrong with Krhin?

 

[Luka]

That's the good thing, Parma plays open attacking football, not an anti-football 11 players behind the ball tactic (ala Rangers, Chelsea and especially BARI).

If I had a penny whenever I heard that about a small club coming to Meazza...

 

[CafeCordoba]

Stankovic's flu bug can be a blessing in disguise. As now he doesn't risk getting himself injured in this match. Stankovic has become quite injury-prone during the years.

Parma plays normally 4-3-3 so I think we can contain them by playing at ease, not over-offensive or anything. We can control the midfield with four players.

I don't know why Mourinho took Quaresma again for Meazza match, it's completely waste of bench place. Though I think he will be dropped since I don't know who else should be dropped.

wonder if mou will rest any players with the barca match pending

Doubt it. Mou doesn't really believe in resting players. Maybe jz because of his age and the long trips and chivu because of his flu but the rest will play.

I'm just hoping that Inter don't play to the level of competition tomorrow. We have a tendency of overlooking lesser opponents.

Gazzetta:

Sneijder with Milito and Eto'o
Candidates of starting Vieira - Muntari

Appiano Gentile - On the field, Inter are better. Jose Mourinho prohibits any references regarding Barcelona and he calls Inter not to snub Parma. Thus, zero changes, "Sneijder, Milito and Eto'o are playing." But Stankovic will stay home alone, grappling with a mild flu.

Two candidates And then in the midfield candidate between Vieira and Muntari. The first player would be the natural replacement for Stankovic (himself is an alternative to Cambiasso), he guarantees centimeters, weight and technique. Contraindications? In tandem with Thiago Motta would create a more relective and dynamic midfield. Muntari, just like Zanetti would play in front of the defense because they're quicker than Vieira, a feature not to be overlooked against Parma. In the defense, Davide Santon hoping for a call, although yesterday Chivu (he too returned with a fever) did the work in groups. The situation with the Nerazzurri is particularly like the one with the National team. Still need some official minutes this season.

Defense and attack At the back, Maicon, Lucio and Samuel are safe. In attack, "Sneijder is fully recovered - says Mourinho - and he has done great in the last workout." So the Dutch will be assisting Milito and Eto'o, confirming that they're are in need to play to improve their understanding. It is still probable, however, Balotelli is in the race for tomorrow's game. Balotelli still has not started in the early stages of the season.

Tomorrow Cambiasso in group Yesterday sessions differentiated Cambiasso (physiotherapy, specific power, sustained work in the field with technical circuit-coordinated metabolic background), Marco Materazzi (therapy, physiotherapy) and Mancini (muscle strain in his right leg). "But we are usually less fortunate during the international breaks - Mourinho smiles, we've often have to deal with long team injuries. Only this time, there is only Stankovic has a slight fever, therefore he didn't suffer any injuries. All the others are fine." Except Mancini with the last minute injury, "but it's a small thing, he will recover within a week." Then, the most important news, "On Monday, Cambiasso will return to work in teams. fully implemented." Don't rule out a return in the game vs Sampdoria on September 25th, in time the day of the Champions League three days later in Russia, against Rubin. "Materazzi will get well soon - Mourinho claims - and Arnautovic is now very close to the best physical condition. In short, I can not complain about our medical staff."

[skeet]

i have a feeling mourinho will go for 4-3-3 with either quaresma or balotelli on one of the wings, or maybe he'll try it out at the beginning or the end of the game

 

[Luka]

Thanks Inter Forever, as always

 

[Besnik]

IF, big thanks man!

 

[Stefan]

This is a general warning. No mentioning of any other serie a results in the Inter match threads. We have a sticky about this and its clearly mentioned in the rules. Please stick to it. Any more and I will be forced to use the infraction system.

 

[Handoyo]

And no asking of stream links.

An 8pm local time for me. How nice. A lazy breezy Sunday, a nice dinner with friends, go home and it's Inter in TV before sleep. And it's the Idul Fitri next week (1 week holiday in Indonesia)...Life is good.

 

[Sassuolu]

I think this will be the starting lineup
A bit thin in MF with Dejan and Chuchu out

With a formation like this, I wonder who'll be captain. It would be Cesar or
Vieira so it should be Julio.

Anyway my biggest worry for this game is that we have no player who could play in front of defense, I'd honestly rather see Chivu there than Vieira.

This was interesting. Muntari as DM might be a solution against a fast-paced Parma team. I don't think they will play with much midfield control in their mind so Vieira's power and stature as a midfield general might not be so useful. Only problem with Muntari as DM is that Muntari isn't too intelligent player and DM player should be one.

 

[mournickio]

Vieira is intelligent but slow,Muntari is fast but unintelligent.Make your choice? Since Muntari never really played there we can give him a chance against parma and see what happens.Physically he has everything he needs to play as a DM.

 

[Luka]

"Vieira is intelligent but slow,Muntari is fast but unintelligent."

That is pretty much spot on!

...

About the captain thing, I think it is Samuel, Julio, Lucio(because of Captiancy in NT), Maicon - in this order.

 

[Inter1991-]

Just getting my shirt on and heading in to work for the game. Kind of wierd going in on my day off but a win and it will all be worth it. Samu, Wes wondergoal and Milito 3-1. Forza Inter!!!

 

[Rimpel]

one thing's for sure, Santon needs to play today!

 

[Campione]

Inter: 12 Julio Cesar; 13 Maicon, 6 Lucio, 25 Samuel, 39 Santon; 14 Vieira, 4 Zanetti, 8 Thiago Motta; 10 Sneijder; 9 Eto'o, 22 Milito;
A disposizione: 1 Toldo, 2 Cordoba, 7 Quaresma, 11 Muntari, 15 Krhin, 18 Suazo, 45 Balotelli;
All.: José Mourinho

Parma: 83 Mirante; 19 Zenoni, 24 Paci, 2 Panucci, 6 Lucarelli; 5 Zaccardo, 17 Mariga, 4 Morrone, 14 Galloppa; 20 Biabiany, 43 Paloschi;
