Haha Politano taking an important freekick. What a fucking joke. He's a one-trick pony who has an extremely limited football-IQ.

Best mistake taking off our most in form attacker. I didnt have any problem with subbing on Esposito but for Lautaro it was a huge mistake. Although he didnt play well, Conte should not stop giving him chances again and again, that’s how you help a youngster grow.

Tbh, all our players need an IQ test aside from Handa, De Vrij and Barella.

So many wasted opportunities, Barella was often alone at the second post, I counted at least 3 times he was completely open and totally ignored by
- Candreva
- Martinez
- Lastly, that free kick by Politano.

Fucking idiots. Bro absolute fucker of the game. Followed by Biraghi.

Doing IQ test won't make them any smarter.

it hurts, a lot.... the reaction was brilliant. Parma didn't had the chance to make something, we dominated the whole second half and had great chances to score one more goal or even 2. We played really great. Im sure that Sensi would have done the diffrence with he's shootings from outside. Gagliardini made a good game, same for Barella. But only Brozovic and Candreva tryed to score from outside.

it's not the tipical Inter lose/draw. We can't say that the team suffred the pressure from the Juve result. But itwas exactly what i expected after playing 3 days before against Dortmund....

Agree. Unfortunately we are short-staffed and injuries obviously make matters even worse. Brozovic, usually one of our best, made a hash of things on the first goal and did not do great even after that.

On the plus side - this team does not give up. It's annoying that we didn't win, but this is the sort of game where in years past we would have folded like a cheap suit. Today we got a point.

At least we didnt lose our position in the table and are still close to juve. The guys did only have 2 days rest so its still ok. Disappointed but shit happens. Hopefully the boys learn from this.

We can't afford to take games for granted and start this game the way we did. There was such an obvious difference in how we played the second half, so much more intense and certain in what we were doing. Whereas the first half was a mess.

We drew this game, 2 and a half days after a massive game. We should have had two penalties but the refs had a disaster. The two goals we conceded were from stupid mistakes. Let's not make it a drama, learn from the mistakes and on to the next one.

Yeah I can’t fucking believe they didn’t let Esposito take the free kick. He was even asking Conte to let him.

Brozo fucked up but tbh we're putting so much pressure on him, he never relaxes he looked so disoriented today he obviously needs a break which is a luxury Inter can not afford. We're poor with no bench and can not rely on our laughable subs.

Well according to FIF its not needed with extra pressure on his shoulders.

Apart from that, we both know Brozovic and Politano can’t take free kicks for shit. When you have both Esposito and Biraghi available, let the fuckers shoot.

We simply don't have the squad depth to play two games in a week. Conte hands are extremely tight. Even though i never had high expectations from Biraghi, his performance was very disappointing.

Don't have one.

Crucial point...
As long as we stay top three I will be more than happy, just have zero expectations from some of these players, and you already mentioned one of them.

This why we need to survive till January and then get 2-3 players. And there are no excuses. I liked our mercato but sadly the time has come again to say that our bench is still the same. Vecino is shit, Valero dont't exixst and Sanchez is injured.

I heard that Rakitic will leave and there are good chances that he will come here in January (there is a meeting in the next weeks between Ausilio and the agent) It would be really important.

Brozovic against Benevento remains the last time we scored on a free kick, isn't it? I can't for the life of me remember any such goals since then and that was over two years ago now.

Doing the same thing and epxecting different results is the definition of insanity. :einstein:

A Rakitic deal would be yet another Nainggolan type of deal - least imaginable amount of upside, super high-risk of backfiring.

Part of the reason being that the damned refs hardly ever give us a free kick from a dangerous spot. That said, hopefully next time we'll let Esposito take a crack...

Shiiiiiiiet the last match thread I opened was Empoli v Inter 2015 :yao: We drew 0-0 :yao:

I expect the midfield trio to remain the same. With Vecino and of course Sensi injured, we don't have a choice. Wouldn't be surprised to see Bastoni or Biraghi get a start either.

Anyway, it's time. Time to start Lazaro. He's always come on late in the 2nd half and (I want to believe) he can contribute more if he plays from the beginning and gets to settle in. Or at the very least, not disgrace himself. It's games like this we really need our backups to step up.

Last season we lost this fixture of course, wiith Dimarco scoring a screamer. Our recent record vs Parma is actually pretty shit. In the last 10 meetings, we're at 4W, 2D and 4L.

That said, Conte has done great work getting this side to act like a big team and not drop easy points (so far). The results away at Cagliari and Sassuolo were a breath of fresh air. I fully expect nothing other than a convincing win. At least 8-0.

Banned of opening any thread for the next 10 years.
