My God was Inter poor today.
Yes, hats off to Benassi, he probably earned himself a bigger contract and a transfer to another club with one performance. But if you have trouble scoring in football, there is only ONE way to resolve the issue, create more chances! And we struggled to do that.
Zanetti in midfield. Poor. Cambiasso. Bad bad game. Obi. Not good at all. Maicon, barely saw him on the pitch, doesn't like playing minnows. Samuel, unlucky not to have atleast 2 goals today. Lucio, needs to be replaced ASAP. Still a useful player, but its time to make a move and buy THE NEXT LUCIO, someone who can partner Ranocchia. Zarate, useless.
I am used to Ranieri tinkering, and know that Sneijder is not yet 100% but he looked fucking good today. Better than Zanetti, Cambiasso and Obi, by miles.
It is just the same story over and over again. We are lacking atleast 3 players, a new CB, another two-way CM (Motta w/o the injury-proneness is what we need), and a goddamn REPLACEMENT FOR ETO'O. Never have I thought we missed Eto'o as much as today. I always thought we were getting enough chances, we just weren't putting them away. Well, today I can say we weren't making enough chances, AND Benassi was stopping everything.
As for Zarate and Forlan, they should just return their salary that Inter has paid them, and leave. Forlan can still be useful in theory, but he is more injury prone than Motta and Poli right now, which I didn't think was possible, previously.
The ref was also bad, no surprise there, and while I have always hated the offside rule, today even more so!
