Simone Inzaghi

[Besnik]

352 is not the problem.

 

[bubba zanetti]

As long as he gives chance to Gags instead Asslani or Corrrea instead Lakaka he's a bum for me.

 

[Besnik]

Agree on your first point, but honestly there is no difference between Correa and Lukaku, they are both awful. But the thing si that one is healthy and younger, the other one has declined like hell. But their contribution is the same, ZERO.

Correa is Gagliardini of strikers which means he's the worst.

it is if the wing backs can't cross for shit.

Lukaku was trying to put some effort at least. Correa is like a spectator, just walking around and makes stupid passes. This guy was bought to unlock the defenses with his dribbling. What a waste.

That means you have no proper players according to your setup. No formation will work unless you have adjusted it properly.

Well, Gosens, Dumfries, can't cross. Dimarco's crosses are at 30 percent and Darmian's at even worse. Not saying 3-5-2 is not useful, but the wings are a problem with current setup.

 

[BasedGodPunk]

Change in formation won’t come until we get new owners who can invest in the squad. We have zero wingers on this team and buying one doesn’t come cheap. Let alone two starting wingers and a bench option or two. If Inzaghi maintains top four he will 100% be back and we’ll run it back with the same team minus Dumfries and plus a cheap defender.

I disagree completely. The problem was never 352 nor wings as you say, because with Dimarco and Darmian or Dumfries in the starting line-up we have been dominating many times and we have shown that we could be a threat to any opponent, but the problem is something else. Besides, a wingback duo of Dimarco as LWB and one of Darmian/Dumfries as RWB is more than fine in this league.

Let's not ignore the fact that Dumfries was pretty good before a while ago. He has shown that he could make huge contribution in offensive department, and then we had Darmian who has rather defensive minded wingback but still useful when going forward.

You are overreacting too much over 352 or not having good enough players. I mean, these aren't top quality players one could wish, but our team is CAPABLE of dominating the average sides of the league. We lost to Empoli at home just recently, then we dropped points against Monzas and some other shit teams, so don't tell me that our wings are the problem while we managed to defeat Barcas, Napolis and Milan with the same players.

The problem is team's mindset. We are broken mentally, also led by a pussy coach. It doesn't help when you have an incompetent management, so it's like a circle from the top to the bottom.

Btw, Dimarco has been immense as a LWB since Perisic left. Maybe not as good as the Croatian, but however he managed to step up pretty well and his crossing especially is amazing. Too bad our finishing was pis poor and we lacked so much in the final third. We created opportunities and everything. Sometimes it takes mental preparation to kill games.

I'm grateful for three cups, but I really doubt that Inzaghi is the right man for current Inter. If we had money enough, to provide him solid players, he would be able to win even the scudetto, I guess. But right now, he cannot develop even a single young player like Asllani, who looks ready to step up. He relies only on veterans like Mkhiky, Darmian etc. His obsession with Correa is also cancerous. Correa deserves to be the first one to leave, but most probably we'll keep him, because he is licking Inzaghi's balls.
I'm surprised how Pioli, Allegri, even Mourinho have the courage to put in some young boys if their teams do not have enough finances or if the things don't go well, but our mister is over relying on the same people again and again, till the point when everyone turns to a shit.

I agree with you here, bar Correa things. If we would have an offer for Correa, he will go. But there is none.
Otherwise, as you pointed out, his biggest minus is the inability to develop young players. The top 4 is obvious, but the second priority is developing the young players. Without that we are fucked.
We have a broken owner, Inter had a mountain of debt and the second payroll in Serie A (127m, second to Juventus of 159m). We are haemorrhaging money year after year. Without scouting and developing young players we have no ceiling, no future. We can continue this agony with grandpas free agents and scavenging some players the rich teams don`t want. But we won`t come out of this purgatory.

I know that many here are dreaming of a sugar daddy who will put tens or hundreds millions in Inter`s ass. Unfortunately I don`t see any rich potential owner rubbing his hands waiting to splash the cash on our team.

Starting Gags instead of Asllani yesterday was a sackable offense

 

[Damageplan]

Our strongest point was our midfield and Brozovic was pretty much the most important piece. I am not a fan of 3-5-2 myself but our team currently just looks out of balance all around with this type of formation. There is no serious tracking back to help the defence from the midfield and that link that is provided by Brozo is currently lacking. On top of that our defence has been shaky as fuck. You definitely need particular players to pull 3-5-2 off, we sort of have those players but some are injured some are out of form and some are on their way out.

On a side note: Milan is getting butt raped by Sassy

 

[RickyMaravilla'sRightFoot]

Inzaghi teams usually hit one unbeatable run of form per season. We haven’t seen that this year so I hope we get it in February and March because CL progression is crucial for us to salvage any success from this season.

 

[YoramG]

This guy and cup games, a match made in actual heaven. Fair fucks, never looked concerned tonight and played good football.

 

[Helenio Herrera]

Underrated coach, deserves at least another season.

Wait first to make it in top 4. He is good tournament coach, but if we miss CL money next season, that won't matter.
Anyway, I don't like how he uses Lukaku. The latter should start the games, because he obviously needs like 15-20 min to step up in the match. When he puts him in the last 15 min, there is no use of it.

I'm quite confident about us making top four. In fact, I expect us to finish second quite easily barring some sort of injury crisis.

We might repeat in the Coppa Italia with some luck. Again, I'd say we are favorites on that front except for maybe against Lazio.

I think Porto is quite underrated and that tie is 50/50. I don't have any expectations on that front but a deep CL run would be fun and it's not out the realm of possibilities if the draws go our way.

Anyway I'd say we're in a transitional period and as long as he establishes a good strong game character (of which there are early signs) and makes the CL spots with good cup runs, I'd be on the side of giving him more time.

As for Lukaku, as he slowly regains fitness, surely he'll return to the starting lineup. However, I disagree with the notion that Lukaku is useless as a sub. He was great as a sub for Belgium. When he's fit, he can run at tired defenses and expose them. He's also quite fast so would be a good counterattacking option when we're trying to protect leads.

 

[Kraits]

Result aside.. Insaghi's team is most offensive (interesting) Inter since 199x.. even with the financial trouble
Others are all defensive minded or relying on certain players..

 

[bubba zanetti]

Well his subs were good this time. Which is not suprising when you have players like Brozo, Lukaku and Gosens as subs instead of Vecino, DDA and similiar trash(Gags next season) . It shows you again how important is to have quality roster and you cant always blame coach for his subs.
