Parma - Inter (18 May 08)

[Stefan]

Positives: Mancini's last game.

This is down to our players. They need to do this for the fans and the club.

And oh yeah Zenga I don't care if you have to come out of retirement and keep goal but please prevent roma from winning.

 

[Stefan]

That's a myth, cmon- Moratti DID NOT ALMOST FIRE MANCINI after the Juve game.

Stranger things have happened. Only the players,moratti and mancini know what really happened in that dressing room.

 

[Principe]

Moratti was furious in the stands today, his son actually left the game sometime after their second goal.....but in parma we'll win i know we will...

It actually feels like we have lost the Scudetto already. Failing to close it up after 2 matches is just saddening. I really hope that we lose this match BUT also that Roma lose/draw against Catania, so we still win the Scudetto for the record books but also feel like this season is a failure, so Moratti will realize that the Inter - Mancini relationship just has got to end this summer.

I want to celebrate and only a win will make me celebrate....I think Moratti already knows that the inter - mancini relationship has to end this summer he doesn't need a loss at Parma to prove that.....

This is a fu$$$ reality, this situation really sucks because in the all important matches that Inter had the last 6 months, inter sucks except to roma....i really worried i dont gonna sleep this week.....

 

[lonewolf19]

chuchu injured for this game. I wanna cry now

 

[rockball]

I am trying to be as positive as I can. An Interista never loses hope

A big selection worry here. Who plays in midfield? No Cuchu, Chivu or Deki this time.

Cesar
Maicon-Matrix-Rivas-Maxwell
Vieira-Capitano-Pele
Jimenez
Mario-Cruz

What if he prefers to go with Maniche?

I hope this is Mancio's last Serie game with us and all my prayers are with him this time.

Well i think that is the best line up and logical, put to maniches is a mistake i think, pelé can offer a best attack option, one more think take away to matrix and put Burdisso....

 

[Ziyad]

Its all on the line..Inter cant complain if they lose this because they had 3 attempts at it.Players have to live up to their wages.Go on the field with the right mentality.We shouldnt be anxious cuz that will kill us.Just be brave,do your best and be patient,the result will come.

A slight change in the back to the Siena lineup and one in midfield.Other than that nothing changes.Same attacking mentality but more ferocious on the D..Mancini better close it down if we get the lead we want with not much time.

I think we need to go with Maniche and Viera for this match - in a pressure match, experience counts. Btw, is Chivu also out for the season???

I did nt see the match yesterday .. so cant comment how Jiminez played. Is it worthwhile playing Balotelli along with Cruz and Suazo?? a 3-man forward line .. i mean it was never very easy to break down Cuperman's defense - altho its only Parma.

My guess is Cuper will sit back and defend with 9 men behind the ball, and try for long balls - and its an absolute must that we have Rivas with his pace starting dis match.

But wht do u feel bout Ballotelli-Suzao-Cruz???

You can't experiment in such a crucial game. That should only be used if late on we need a winning goal.

I hope Zlatan can at least make the bench. I know he is not fully fit or even close but we need a moment of magic.

 

[scutzon]

Honestly, I'm finding it amazingly difficult to believe that anything positive will come out of this game. It's as if the scudetto is already lost for me. Even if we do win at the end, it'll be akin to raising the dead.

 

[rockball]

I am sure Cuper still feels for Inter.

 

[addo]

Parma needs the points for the relegation battle.. so dont expect any favors..

 

[Interista nr.1]

We have almost blown it. But unlike 5th of May we still have a chance to go at it. The players were charged up today and played a good game, its just that Burdisso lost us the game. Its about getting our defence sorted and playing Balotelli and Suazo from the start. Cruz is too tired to play the full 90 minutes. Crespo isnt contributing either.

Parma have to score so Suazo can be dangerous on the counter. Jimenez also needs to play. We have lost Cambiasso so I'm scared Mancio will play Deki because Dacourt isnt match-fit.

I totaly agree with you that Burdisso was terrible against Siena. I see less and less hope for him in Inter.

Cuper headed for early exit?

[mike_inter]

I watched some Italian channels last night and Mancio was caught by a camera clearly shouting "Julio,Julio.." for the penalty..
He then revealed in the press conference that Cruz is our first penalty taker..

Then a Roma supporter(from their biggest fan club) said that many giallorossi will travel to Parma on Sunday and will be among Parma tifosi..

If that is true then can someone imagine what's gonna happen if Roma and Inter fans meet in an autostrada heading for the same game?..
Many episodes have taken place this year between various sets of fans and I fear the worst for this exteremly crusial match..

 

[8ballmjg]

I have no idea what the result will be against Parma(A win of course)

The lineup:

Julio Cesar

Maicon---Rivas--Matrix---Maxwell

Maniche-Viera-Zanetti

Jimenez

Balotelli- Cruz


THe thing is, I think catania will win or draw with Roma(Just have a feeling).
