Inter - Sampdoria (17 Feb 19) [2-1]

God please,your obsession with icardi made you forgot who is the main issue here.

oh,the irony...

 

[Bluenine]

If Martinez builds up some muscle and keeps improving his end product, we have a great player in the making. However, lets not put too much expectation on the kid just yet. He needs to be given time to develop in peace, he is doing good for his age. And there is a lot of development needed for us to be able to depend on him.

hard to say whos MOTM everyone deserved wearing the shirt today. On another note our CBs are pure class we got used to how great they are but they deserve to be highlited every game
Skriniar desire and fighting spirit makes him a leader with or without the armband

 

[Sassuolu]

Some very good signs but the team is still very fragile but I'll elaborate on that later.

Anyway let's start with the positives:

Lautaro - fought for every single ball, created two great chances in the second half and should've scored in the first half but overall he was good.

Perisic - Welcome back, where the fuck were you?

Gagliardini - Some great passes, the guy just needs some confidence I can remember some great performances when we first signed him, he's better than Vecino that's for sure.

Radja - Take a bow sir, great to see him back, but if he gets injured again we are fucked. His exchanges with Perisic at one point made me salivate!

The bad side of the team is that our full backs get easily beaten, Defrel really could've caused some damage on Dalbert's side. What worries me also is the mental fragility and the really like a lucid thinking at the end, JUST KEEP THE FUCKING BALL, IS THIS YOUR FIRST FOOTBALL GAME!? RUN THE FUCKING CLOCK DOWN AND WIN IT! GOD! DO YOU HAVE TO KILL ME EVERY WEEK? [/rant]

Anyway, it's the first step we need to improve, next week we've got Fiorentina who should give our defence a fun evening.

oh,the irony...

You took the words right out of my mouth.

 

[Sassuolu]

The electricity in the second half was real indeed: the team spirit, the intensity from the players, the energy of the San Siro crowd.
And the final whistle was liberating. We were all Skriniar, moments before the last corner of the game.
Much needed way to end this week.

(on to Fiorentina... no, Rapid Wien first... wait, Wanda at Tiki Taka tonight. "This is the real test")

Don't watch it, they don't deserve the ratings.

 

[Fossati]

This win is coz of MAROTTA LAW - "No one is above the team". The era of prima donnas at Inter is over.

First the Marotta Law was slapped on Nainggolan. He responded.

Then the Marotta Law was slapped on Perisic. He has responded today.

Now the Marotta Law has been slapped on Icardi. Up to you now, Mauro.

:nono: Didn't you get the memo? Marotta is a spy from the rubentus camp who's been tasked with wreaking havoc/making everyone feel miserable/cause the whole team to break up.

In which case, I might add, he's doing a pretty lousy job of it... if I were andrea "Unibrow" agnelli I'd ask him for a progress report...

 

[firmino]

we demand the poll, you lazy mods

 

[javier_zanetti <3]

I missed that feeling. We had better games this season and also last one, but i think today was the first game in Spalletti era that it seems like our players finally understand what playing for Inter means, and i really liked our game today.

[Bluenine]

Perisic - Welcome back, where the fuck were you?

He had talent amnesia. Its a real thing. Luckily for us, Quagliarella's freekick which smashed hard on Perisic's head seems to have cured it

:work:

Let me tell you guys the secret of the victory..

17 feb 19. 17+2+19 = 38.

There is an 8 in every victory.

78th minute for the winning goal.

 

[Pravesh]

Not our best game at all but we could see how a striker with pretty good movement could change our game upfront. Icardi is Icardi but it would be great, if he works on his movements. We are not expecting him to make Ronaldo, Higuain, Piatek movements but way lot than his current style of play - which is so static (though I have to admit that he has been slightly better than before in this aspect).

 

[Perttu10]

Long time since I posted last time.
The one thing I really loved seeing was how team celebrated after the goals. When D´Ambrosio scored Perisic went absolutely crazy. The whole team was celebrating like team should. There were no signs of individualism. Same goes to Naingolans goal. This is what team looks like.
Also Lautaro Martinez was really good. Good passes, Lot of work and good runs making space for other players. Also when he let the ball go between his feet to Perisic was a clever move.
Also work rate of Perisic is just incredible. Good to see guys playing with heart again.

 

[A.l.i]

As the commentator summed our performance last night

"A performance of spirit and mentality."

 

[dax21]

I can't believe I'm about to say it... but Perisic was pretty damn good last night.

We play well without Icardi and that is a good problem to have.

 

[yoszee]

Look how happy Rano was.

 

[ElDuccio]

I can't believe I'm about to say it... but Perisic was pretty damn good last night.

We play well without Icardi and that is a good problem to have.

seriously, specialy Perisic has a problem with Icardi i think. This is the best game of Ivan after the world cup tbh...

Talking about celebrations, De Vrij's reaction when Nainggolan scored the winner:
