We have to win this one..if not,i don't see us in a good situation.I think this one is gonna be harder than the other ones,so the guys must concentrate more and fight for the 3pts.we shall see....FORZA INTER!!!

 

[AntonTheGreat]

With a nice win here, i think we would be prepared for roma. Inter will give their all in that game, and it may lead to consistent big wins. I hope. Any way even us crippled i think we can win this and against roma.

My logic for roma game
Inter tied to udinese who beat juve who tied roma. Which means we will beat Roma hahaha... we can only hope that logic works. Inter needs to play 2 hard games and be prepared for CL. Also evenly rest players which makes these upcoming games quite interesting. Please god no more injuries or suspensions.

 

[mexican_azzurri]

The team need WIN dont care the "how", right now this guys need come down and be concetrated...if not win, roma destroy us...

 

[Jnr]

A new chanche to be the 1st. Roma&Milan have a tricky ones so we must surely make the most of it tho Sampdoria is no walkover.

And who`s betting on Ibra&J.Cesar for saving the club colours again??

 

[Gasparroni]

We already should have won in Livorno, then we could play a bit more relaxed perhaps. It will be a really tough game against Sampdoria, but the team needs to recover and really needs a win to build more selftrust. This selftrust we will really need in the very hard match against Roma, and 3 days later there will be PSV waiting for us. We have no time anymore and we MUST.
I hope everybody who is in good form also have the condition to play both 3 matches, we can rest players against Napoli, even though that will be a difficult match too. But its clear that we must try to win our next 3 hard games.
We must hope and believe in Julio Cesar and Ibra, and also on the improving Adriano.
I hope to see Adriano and Cruz play at the start against Sampdoria. I think this will be the line up, and i wouldnt mind:

--------------Julio Cesar--------------
Zanetti---Burdisso---Samuel---Maxwell
Figo---------Cambiasso---------Cesar
-------------Stankovic---------------
-----------Cruz-----Adriano----------

 

[lonewolf19]

--------------Julio Cesar--------------
Zanetti---Burdisso---Samuel---Cesar
Dacourt---------Cambiasso--------Deki
-------------Figo---------------
-----------Ibra-----Crespo----------

Suazo should start if one of the two starter wasnt avaliabe and need to be rested

 

[Adam]

--------------Julio Cesar--------------
Zanetti---Burdisso---Samuel---Cesar
Dacourt---------Cambiasso--------Deki
-------------Figo---------------
-----------Ibra-----Crespo----------

Suazo should start if one of the two starter wasnt avaliabe and need to be rested

If Mancini indeed intends to go through with this cut of Suazo he is an absolute idiot. Which I don't think he is because I see eye to eye with many of his decisions. I think Suazo was rested vs Livorno. If that's the case it was a smart move putting him in the stands, because it could light a fire under his ass. There's just no way Mancini is dumb enough to demote a quality signing like Suazo, to fifth striker because he hasn't scored in 160 minutes of league pay. It defeats his own purpose.

Suazo should be given at least sixty minutes in this match or against Roma.

 

[Totally FRANK]

I have a feeling that ibra will be rested and will be on the bench to come on later if needed......As he has played full time both in the CL game and against livorno...And we also have roma on saturday so he needs to be fresh for that....We might see crespo and adriano upfront.....

 

[Enzo]

why don't we just unleash suazo, ibrahimovic and crespo all at once.

cesar
zanetti burdisso samuel maxwell
..dacourt stankovic cambiasso..
..suazo crespo ibra

 

[Gasparroni]

why don't we just unleash suazo, ibrahimovic and crespo all at once.

cesar
zanetti burdisso samuel maxwell
..dacourt stankovic cambiasso..
..suazo crespo ibra

This will never happend ofcourse.......
Its been a while since Cruz played a match, i think Ibra will get rest and that or Crespo or Suazo comes in the second half. I think we need Ibra 90 minutes against Roma and PSV, so he better rest now. Adriano is improving every time, but maybe even he can get rest too now, wich i dont hope....but then we would see Crespo with Cruz. There is nothing wrong with Suazo, but he has to have patience, he just started at Inter and he must work on scoring, wich he did bad against Fenerbahce....

 

[sergiu.inter]

cesar
zanetti burdisso samuel maxwell
..dacourt stankovic cambiasso..
..suazo crespo ibra

I'd change it a bit with adri instead of suazo anyway,this won't happen not in a million years with mancini on the bench.
I really do hope he'll start with adri and crespo and rest ibra...or if not ibra and crespo.if i see ibra-suazo again i'm gonna close the f**** TV.

 

[Gasparroni]

The 19-player squad called up by Mancini:

Goalkeepers: 1 Francesco Toldo, 12 Julio Cesar.

Defenders: 2 Ivan Ramiro Cordoba, 6 Maxwell, 16 Nicolas Burdisso, 25 Walter Samuel.

Midfielders: 4 Javier Zanetti, 5 Dejan Stankovic, 7 Luis Figo, 15 Olivier Dacourt, 19 Esteban Cambiasso, 21 Santiago Solari, 30 Pelé, 31 Cesar.

Strikers: 8 Zlatan Ibrahimovic, 9 Julio Ricardo Cruz, 10 Adriano, 18 Hernan Crespo, 29 David Suazo.

 

[CafeCordoba]

Figo is probably starting since he didn't feature against Livorno at all.

Stankovic needs rest as I heard his performance against Livorno was as bad as in Turkey. Midfield could be then Cambiasso-Dacourt-Cesar. The Brazilian should have offensive duties with Figo. I would bench Zlatan, because of Roma match. If Crespo & Adriano/Suazo could kill the match by themselves.

 

[Gasparroni]

Now i know the selection i changed my line up:

--------------Julio Cesar--------------
Zanetti--Cordoba---Burdisso---Maxwell
Figo---------Cambiasso---------Cesar
---------------Solari-----------------
-----------Cruz-----Crespo----------

Julio Cesar is in topform and he must start, we can count on him. Because of the ban for Maicon, Zanetti have to start as rightback and Cordoba didnt play much this season for so far, he will get some minutes so Samuel can rest for Roma and PSV and so we can see Burdisso near Cordoba, he is doing pretty well and ofcourse Maxwell as left back.
On mitfield we miss Zanetti and Vieira and we should let Stankovic rest. I would like to see Cambiasso at the centre to bring rest in the team and on mitfield and Cesar who is doing really well on the left mitfield. At the other side of the field i would like to see Figo start, but i wouldnt want him to play 90 minutes because we will need him against Roma and PSV too. In the second half Pelé could change for Figo, but then Figo at least took some minutes. Then behind our atack i would like to see Solari, when he is playing he always is showing a good form, he deserves to play now and he could be very usefull at this position.
Then in atack i want to see Cruz and Crespo. Cruz didnt play much he really deserve to play, and he can always score just like Crespo. To score goals Cruz and Crespo are very important for us and they can also be creative. Adriano should also play maybe, but now its more important to let others play, we need them the next matches. Suazo just have to wait, his time will come but we have too many atackers in good condition and who needs to play to let him play every week. Ibra should rest for Roma and PSV, but when its really needed we still have him on the bench.

 

[golazo]

Suazo and Ibra should be rested. They have Roma and PSV coming up.

Adriano should be used for most league games along with Crespo/Cruz. Ibra and Suazo should come in for the big leagues matches and CL, with Cruz/Crespo in relief duties, take your pick.

 

[Stefan]

Disagree with that imho. Crespo-Ibra should be the starters in the big games.

I would play adri-suazo in this one and use crespo-ibra as subs and for the important two up coming games.

Crespo is our best finisher and must be a starter in my book.

 

[Gasparroni]

From the interview with Mancini:

How are Dejan Stankovic and Nicolas Burdisso?
"I think both will play tomorrow."

Who will play in attack tomorrow?
"Definitely Crespo. Tomorrow morning we will look at the condition of all those who played on Sunday. Today we did a light session so every player could recover."
