Italian Serie A 2019/2020

[Palacio]

So Atalanta, who are 9 points behind us, are fighting for the Scudetto and we are not?

No but no one can rule Atlanta out and I know too well our weaknesses.

 

[Kova10]

I don't think that losing to Dortmund, even in that way, made us a laughing stock. It certainly looked bad, but still, it happens in football.

The match against Barca under 15, to use Universe's words, well yeah, that was way more embarrassing.

I just cannot get why everyone is acting as if we played an amateur level team.
They had Neto, Umtiti, Lenglet, Vidal, Rakitic, Firpo, Griezmann, De Jong, and Suarez involved in the game. All of these Players would be at least frequenty rotational Options in our squad.
We had fucking D'Ambrosio, Vecino, Borja Valero, Brozovic, and Biraghi in midfield. What do you expect us to do?
Additionally we had no Sanchez, Sensi, Barella, and Candreva just came back from being injured. Get your expectations reality checked if you expect us to win against Barcelona with that midfield please.

Does "lost to a half-team Barcelona" sound any better? Fact is they didn't even try and we lost the game.

 

[Kramerica Industries]

"Didn't even try" is an unfair claim to make on a group of professionals and I could easily argue that a) for players who didn't have concrete roles in the team, it was a chance for them against a quality opponent to make a good impression on the coaching staff and b) that there was no pressure on them and all the pressure on their opponent made it easy for them to play "their game" because they didn't have to fear negative consequences from them.

This isn't even a contest for me. Getting knocked out against PSV last season was 100x more disappointing than what happened against Barcelona.

 

[Ed.]

if that makes you feel better then suits yourself.

 

[delaurentis]

Inter had some clearcut chances against Barca and showed a willingness to win. What more can you ask for as a supporter?
Against PSV, Inter played cowardly and remains, together with the 2-3 defeat against juBe, one of my deepest dissapointments during the Spaletti era.

Look beyond the results is all I can say

 

[Universe]

Rapenaldo scores in his eleventh consecutive game, equaling the record of Batistuta and Quagliarella. Can’t wait for him to break the record next week against us.

 

[YoramG]

Imagine playing Juve and having fucking no one on Ronaldo. SPAL :notbad:

Gotta win next week ffs. Juve, besides Mr. Sexual Predator himself, are so shit.

I mean, if you took Ronaldo out of their starting eleven they are still superior to our squad imo.

Not the way they're playing though.

 

[ADRossi]

Not the way they're playing though.

We're not playing well either though? Juve are played half-assed and still winning the league. We're stretching ourselves to our maximum level and are in third place. This speaks to the superior level of their squad, before you even start considering the "questionable" refereeing decisions.

well, if we win, that is not going to bother me. a nice 4-1 for us, penaldo to score from penalty minute 93', and everyone is happy.

I'm not that sure anymore tbh. Their squad is much better, but starting 11? who from their team would start here. Ronaldo obviously. Maybe bonucci in a back 3? Alex sandro and cuadrado yes. But barella broz eriksen is better than their midfield, handanovic better, de vrij and skriniar even though he hasn't been playing well and also lukaku. I think our starting 11 is actually stronger now

But without their questionable referring decisions they wouldn't be top.

 

[CoolMan44]

Lol Dalbert so bad on that Ibra goal.

 

[Palacio]

Imagine if Brozo had Duncan’s speed.

- - - Updated - - -

Lol Dalbert so bad on that Ibra goal.

The ref saved Dalbwrt’s future by disallowing the goal.

 

[CoolMan44]

Is Duncan even that fast? Not saying he isn't but never thought of him as someone known for speed but rather strength.

 

[Palacio]

He acts a lot quicker and gives the impression that he is fast.

 

[brehme1989]

Dalbert sent off, then Fiorentina equalize :notbad:

 

[IRR26]

This Juventus don't look like a team that win scudetto.

They have been completely Ronaldo depended for months now. Their midfield and defence are a mess. There is no tactics nor Sarriball.
