I don’t give a single fuck about the win, the three points, or Thuram’s hat trick.

Seriously. This team doesn’t have a damn thing that resembles a scudetto winning side. It’s like we have acurse in our DNA. We hit a milestone and then we choke, we go back to being midtable trash.

After the triplete, straight back to fucking nobodies. When we won with Conte, we had all the momentum in the world, and we did fucking nothing wiht it. Just needed one or at mosttwo players to keep us dominating for the next 5+ years. We dropped the ball like we always do. And here we are again after we reach the 20 titles we are doing the exact same shit all over.

It’s unbelievable how consistent we are at fucking this up. We have this loser mentality that just doesn’t go away. We bring in average players, hope for some magical chemistry like we are some fucking cheap movie, and then sit around wondering why arent we winning dumb dry games. It’s like every year we think we’ve hacked football. We’ve got the whole “oh but beppe will get him for free” strategy going, and for some reason, we act like we’re geniuses for it.

Yhis whole “let’s get him for free” obsession... fucking hell man. Like, we are out there patting ourselves on the back going “look at us, we got him for free!” we're still talking about how awesome we are getting Zielinski for free, THATS THE SHIT WE ARE STILL HAPPY FOR lol

The club thinks it’s pulling off some genius strategy every summer, and the fans are supposed to pop champagne like we just signed prime Messi.

We’re not winning shit this year. Not the Scudetto, not the Coppa, and if you think we’re doing anything in the CHL I might actually die laughing.. We’ll probably choke so hard people will think de boer is still our manager. We (me too included) keep pretending like this team is just one piece away from magically turning into world class machine.


Fuck this win. Fuck these three points. Fuck Inter.

No money no honey, that is the real state of affairs, people act and think like we have a money tree in the backyard like you do in FM. But in the real world if you don’t generate enough profit, you won’t have anything to spend unless you are backed by a wealthy owner, who can artificially direct funds into the club. This just isn’t the situation at Inter, Inter can’t really spend more than is generated through sales over a given period and with no large sales we are dependent on bosman miracles and low investment that deliver more then investment would otherwise tell you that you would get.

Don't have one.
Which ultimately fall down on the man on the bench
This is like blaming a zebra why it ain't a lion. Inzaghi was never a defensive coach. Last year we had a great defense because of the individual players focus and will and that thing worked great. If they can't find the same desire to do the same this year, then fuck them players tbh.

Last year we had the best defense in europe ffs, i m sure inzaghi didn't change anything in his approach there. It's the players that are slacking big time.

Meh, it's also Inzaghi's job to ensure that the players are motivated. I'm obviously happy with the 3 points, but I'd be lying if I'm not concerned about our defense.

A defence is a team effort build on tactics, without proper tactics, cohesion, running patterns, knowing defensive duties etc. no matter how many great defenders you have you never going to get a great defence, it requires someone to set up a defence and defensive movement, defence start at the moment you loose control of the ball regardless of where it happens on the pitch.

Not a promising performance against a 10 man team, but 3 crucial points is what matters here.
Normally I don't like the international break, but we can use this opportunity to analyze our recent conceded goals.

In comparison, last season, until matchday 7, we only conceded 3 while scoring 19 goals, but now we already conceded 9 while scoring decent 16 goals.
So we are -9 in goal difference compared to last season.

Anyway, get well soon for Zapata.

Yea, I'm sure Inzaghi could have prevented Calha from kicking torino's player leg unnecessarily when Pavard obviously got him covered and he was nowhere near the goal. Ridiculous not to hold player accountable.

We need to focus, our players spent too much time celebrating last year and are not taking these games seriously enough, when the is seemingly won.

I dont think any of our players are that stupid.

At the start of the season, maybe, but right now? Its obvious the league is going to be really hard for us to retain this year.
Maybe they still think other teams (Juventus,Napoli,Milan...) will just roll over like 99% of the fans was thinking whole summer and till recently.

This is such dramatic nonsense.

Great a grip of yourself. Prior to Italian incompetence allowing Juve to dominate the league for a decade, and their cheating allowing us to dominate the same for a half decade, teams never really dominated and Serie A was one of the most competitive in the world. Winning back to back Scudetti in this era of Italian football is a tough feat.

I’m not entirely sure what your issue is. Are you expecting Beppe to pull money out of his ass to buy players?

You post this crap shit talking Marotta’s strategy on the day that his free agent signing scored a hat trick.

I know you’re not a child but surely you can’t be this delusional to not know the reasons why the club can’t spend a lot of big signings and has to resort to free agents. Do you really think they’re doing it because they want to?

Complacency is when you're winning a gme and you take the foot off the gas, or when you're sailing the league. I dont think complacency or lack of motivation is relevant right now. I think its a lack of drilling and discipline in the back. Probably not helped by the pre-season, but still, same applies to Juve-0-goals-conceded. The fucking exact same players last year was one of the most impressive defenses we've ever seen, and now they're a bunch of fucking potatos - you think that has nothing whatsoever to do with the manager and is all entirely on the players?
Yeah somethings to remember though is that it’s early October and the first set of pretenders start to get weeded out by the end of this month, whilst the next set by early December. Even though Milan beat us I don’t believe they’re a serious challengers.

Juventus did a lot right this summer and will probably be our second biggest rivals, the season being as long as it is probably benefits us though.

Napoli on the other hand have it in easy mode. This is Conte’s bread and butter. The dude has no distractions and gets to play his best XI every single week. His team will be a machine and will play anywhere from 8 to ~12 or even 14 less midweek games than its rivals.

Oof. Yeah I appreciate Inzaghi trying to revolutionize modern football tactics. And we move the ball beautifully, but it’s time to get back to basics here a bit. Everyone is trying to get on the score sheet; which is very fun for the players— but it is leaving us waaaay too exposed with many players either unsure of when/ where they need to be covering. I’m all for the direction he wants to go in, but we’re not quite that good yet, and we need to get back to prioritizing solidity above all else.

If we don't sort out the teams mentality and focus
Eventually it will bite us in the ass.

There's only a certain amount of good fortune,
I have yet to see any desire or real passion (apart from a few ) this season.
