QUOTE (William405 @ Dec 6 2020, 11:19 PM) On that note, Sampdoria didn't really threaten much, except for a few situations. We largely controlled the game. Of-course, I would have liked to see a bit more goals, but we are really decimated when it comes to injuries. Kessie was a beast in that midfield as usual. Agreed, however, we allowed too many set-piece situations which we all know we're shaky on. We need to close down better before the opposition comes near our area. But agreed, from open play, I don't remember much of anything being created in terms of clear cut opportunities. QUOTE (William405 @ Dec 6 2020, 11:22 PM) Hmm, are you sure Hakan was on the wings? Sometimes our attacking trio is interchanging positions which I think is good to surprise opponents. Once again, Hauge gave a neat pass to Rebic which then gave it through to Samu! Hauge wasn't as exceptional today but still useful! Yeah, Hakan was on the wing in the first half, of course the players interchange when we're in attack, but when we were not in possession he was clearly out wide, which imo hinders his contributions, especially in transitions

QUOTE (X-Offender @ Dec 7 2020, 01:32 AM) Hakan usually plays on the left when Brahim starts.
Anyway, both Ibra and Bennacer will probably be available for the next match vs Parma at home, so I'm expecting an easy 3 points there. Let's keep this rolling!
I have an Inter fan who's breaking my balls right now, saying we'll crumble in the long run. But if we continue to keep this compactness and make a couple of decent signings in January, I think we can make it. For the first 4 spots, that is... Hmm, for sure, we might pass through lows. I think this can happen with any team. But, I don't think we will "crumble" per say. We surely have what it takes for 4th place. Specially, if the January signings come through.

QUOTE (William405 @ Dec 6 2020, 11:25 PM) Yes, with Bennacer with a much much more compact midfield! We really need him back, he also passes the ball quickly to the players in charge of the attacking phase which speeds up our play well sometimes. I'm not saying Tonali was in anyway bad. He played okay, did some basic mistakes, but he generally fights well for the ball and can deliver sometimes killer passes. Still needs to grow much.
Hypothetical question: Is a Kessie-Tonali-Bennacer a midfield option for the future? Or would they be too much of the same type of players? Nah, I can't see us switching to a 3-ma midfield any time soon, and tbh, I don't want that either QUOTE (X-Offender @ Dec 6 2020, 11:32 PM) Hakan usually plays on the left when Brahim starts.

If you listen to them, we're terrible, have terrible players etc. But I wonder what that says about their team considering we already beat them this season and are 5 points ahead of them

Wanted Inter to go through. They'll only have the league to focus on now.
Anyway, game starts in a few minutes. Pioli sending out a complete line-up of reserves and a primavera bench. Will be sort of interesting to see
