It was Xensi who took Chained Brozo's place and helped to smoothen the play against a tired Slavia in the last twenty minutes of the game, and it was Senseijder (credits to Massimo Moratti) who took the last free kick and hit the crossbar that led to the equalizer.

We can never have enough nicknames.

Don't forget the Militoesque celebration when he turned around and realized that Barella scored.

:lol: Only at Inter can a player have like 60+ touches of the ball and still get excuses made for him that he didn't see the ball enough. :lol:

Sensi sees the ball more than any player on this team. He's not creative so he doesn't create a lot of chances.

You realize 60 touches is spread all around the field right?

As in middle of the field, first third, and final third? And you actually cannot create much of a chance receiving the ball in your own half when your opponent closes you down putting numbers behind the ball, marking other players?

One more thing, do you know heatmaps represent his time of positioning on the field rather than the actual touches on the ball? That more or less shows his positioning on the field corresponds to his position to the formation given that we have quite a bit of possession, nothing more.

As far as I can see, from your usage of the heat map, you are either selectively biasing your data to work for your argument or you are completely clueless.

Either way, whatever floats your boat.

You also understand that the midfielder that touches the ball the most and takes all the set pieces will have more opportunities to have score more goals, setup more plays, play more long balls, and have more freekicks than anyone else on the pitch right? Guarin was also our best player in some of the games he played too, when he did everything like Sensi is doing now, and he would have looked much better if he had Godin, Skriniar and De Vrij to keep this together instead of Campagnaro, Vidic and Ranocchia.

People here are so fixated on the singular moments of the game - when the broken clock finally strikes with Sensi, that they ignore all of the misplaced passes, all the times he's easily dispossessed by average-sized players, or the fact that our midfield hasn't created a proper goal-scoring opportunity for our strikers with the ball at their feet in 3 games against 3 of the weakest opponents we'll face this season.

Go read what one of the best midfielders we ever had said about Sensi...
Ok I tell you now, Cambiasso says Sensi is brilliant even when things don't go so smoothly for Inter, that he is having a great impact on the Nerazzurro world...

Forza Nyall!!!

Cambiasso also said great things about Ricky Alvarez.. So clearly he must be this great player as well, right?

IMO, we need better fullbacks. I think someone like Cancelo plus Sensi could’ve done wonders for us specially with our 3-man formation where the fullbacks have to push forward more and don’t have as much defensive duties as a traditional fullback in a 4-man defense.

The broken clock will strike when Sensinho doesn't register a goal or assist. You really blew your load far too early trying to shit on Sensi here man, you should have waited for our first loss.

The “broken clock” also gave De’Vraj & D’Ambrosio open headers, plus set up Lukaku with that sublime chip.

He may well turn to shit, but almost everything we’ve observed since Sensi’s first friendly suggests that he’s one of the best buys we’ve made in a decade.

For Christ’s sake Nyall, at least wait till he’s going through a lousy streak of performances before picking this up again.

Nyall is making some incredibly good points. Whenever we have a player who is a "best player" on our team, we should compare it to the "best player" we had during our banter years because you know... it just makes sense and "Best player" is a very quantitative idea. Sensi misses the net just as much as Guarin did, maybe even more. I'm also really sure when I wasn't watching the games that Sensi gives the ball up more than Guarin, it's a broken clock!

He needs to get bigger and generate more scoring chances, midfielders get more touches on the ball, this should only help their numbers as players who touch the ball more don't get dispossessed of it more. Learn soccer please, it's broken clock!

I think we overpaid this reliable midfielder and deadball specialist who draws fouls by about 25 million clocks.

In Nyall's defence, people were jerking off Politano for 4-5 weeks at the beginning of last season too.

But being a Sensi fan for years I can honestly say that this guy is legit. This type of player needs the right environment. Both football and mental. Hope we provide that and he'll be a long term asset.

I like Politano too, as a rotation player, but he's not what I expect Inter to field as a starter.

But he's not at a very high priority of players we shouldn't use or have.

Compared to previous #10s #7s Politano is miles ahead of anyone since maybe Figo. [who was the best winger since the 90s]

No no we bought Politano and Sensi only to have a chance at victory against Sassuolo... Mabye won't be enough, I'm afraid of Berardi too, we should look at him also

I think if you compare their first seasons at the club, both Perisic and Candreva were much better than Politano. Either way I'm liking what I'm seeing of Politano more than what I saw from him last season.

As for Sensi, he's far exceeding my expectations and he's been a leader on the pitch and a provider of quality. browha is right in saying this won't be his average all season, but so he's been the signing of the entire Serie A mercato.
