Inter should have no trouble beating Torino. They question is by how much. 4 - 0, ftw!

Alvaro gunning for 'lucky' Mancio

Recoba's basically saying Mancio's victories at Inter are a result of luck by inheriting a squad on the verge of success.

Ciao,
Tim

Luck certainly had something to do with it. He's lucky calciopoli happened and he was able to keep his job, plus he's lucky to have this squad at his disposal. Seriously, what coach wouldn't have won the Serie A last season with Inter? Then again, Mourinho is lucky to have Abramobvichs millions, and Riijkard is lucky that Barca got Ronaldinho (when they really wanted Beckham). All success comes with some luck.

That kind of over confidence is what I hate to see. Torino is a formidable side especially in attack with the likes of Rosina, Di Michele and Recoba. We should really be wary and the players should watch out because it is too easy to drop points. But i believe in the lads and I believe we should win.

^^ totally agree Torino plays with 3 forwards and all the 3 has great techniques and good dribblers with Rosina, Di Michele and Recoba our defense must do a lot of work to shut them down and also do not give them free kicks when Recoba and Rosina both at the pitch.

I'm not a fan of Recoba, but I agree 100% with him that Mancini has been luckier than previous Inter coaches.

He has the most complete squad we had in decades and like Lenny and Carl (is this a Batman and Robin thing?) the calciopoli has helped him alot.

Must win here.


Probably Mancini had more luck than previous coaches, but i don't know why he says that now (probably the media has made it bigger than it was).

Mancini's biggest luck is the patience he gets from Moratti. In the past, if you disappoint for 2 seasons in a row, you're out. But this time, even though the squad did not perform that well in 04/05 and 05/06, Mancini still kept his job.

And Ham, Lenny & Carl are Homer's co-workers.

Completely agree. His source of luck is patience from Moratti. It isn't as if he's been given blank check books like the Moratti of old would have done. Honestly, would'nt Mancio have been sacked if Calciopoli didn't happen? I wonder..

Yeah Jimenez and Suazo are playing pretty good, the need to get more minutes in the game, hoping for 2-0!

I hope Recoba gets kicked in the nuts for what he had to say about Mancini.

I hope he does and gets stretchered off :boxing: .

My lineup:

------------------JC--------------------
-Maicon--Nico/Cafe---Matrix------Max---

---------JZ-----Chivu--Cuchu-----------

-----------------Jimenez----------------
--------------Suazo--Ibra----------------

Matrix :p steps in finally in place of the "Wall". I think Deki won't make it while Cesar is back in full flow again.
Our only creativity comes Ibra :| and I think Jimenez as well.

Our local tv channel makes us great New Year present...3rd Inter's game in a row will be showed :D
Hope to see the same performance and spirit as in Viola and Lazio matches... If that happens we'll win it with big margin 3/4/5-0 :)
Hope of Ibra show and expect more pleasing minutes from Jimenez...
although i find Toro as veryhard opponent... with thier form they should have won loads... Novellino's attacking options look very solid on sheet

"Wall" is definitely a wall this season...i would choose Cordoba for the bench and SAmuel on the pitch as the first wasnt impressive as "wall" lately ;)

I havent read it till now...
So its probably Budisso-Cordoba then...

Still very good.
No need to say much about this game, just lets go and play like recent games, and result should come too.
