Finally got around to watching the game and holy crap that was better than sex.
I'm just gonna point out that this Lazio side were equal on points to us coming into this game, 10 wins in 15 games in Serie A, and an almost flawless home record this season. 6-1-0 at the Olimpico this season in Serie A. Further, they just beat Napoli away in their last game coming into this game, so they showed some clear credentials for being a team that can give anybody at or above them in the table some trouble.
First 30 minutes be whatever they were, the final result was an absolute smackdown. We beat the absolute shit out of them.
The credentials of this team and the potential of this team are beyond reproach. Whether we'll achieve our goals is another matter, but this is Italy's best team. This Inter is only getting better the more experience these guys have playing together. The Scudetto is ours to lose, and if seeing these guys batter Lazio 6-0 on their field isn't enough to give confidence that these guys won't lose it, I dunno what else they can do. Early season missed opportunities are what they are but we can't fix them now, we can only try to be better from them and we're doing that right now.
14 different unique goal scorers, and behind Thuram and Lautaro we have five guys who have scored three goals apiece, 15 goals from Hakan, Dimarco, Barella, Dumfries, and Frattesi. That kind of depth is priceless. We have guys from everywhere on the field who can pop up and deliver goals. Just imagine if Lautaro does ever get going this season...
Christ that was fun. I shouldn't have waited two days to watch it!
