Serie A returns!

Zlata out for four games, it's time for Leao to nut up or shut up.

Inter Milan President Zhang Kanyang is saying the club are not for sale, that would be folly. I checked out Suning's financial statement, they are in bigger trouble than I though. They have not paid the wages of their Chinese club Suning Shanghai for several months. The PRC is getting cold feet on their foreign investment spree of 2014 - 16. If he tries to hold on to the club, there will be a mass exodus of players after the season - he doesn't have much of a choice. The PRC are paper tigers.

As Jon Voight (Runaway Train) might say, "hey Xi, you ain't shown me shit".

Zlatan was out, Manzukich was out, Milan sucked, they were very aggressive and committed many fouls, they're lucky that idiot of the Udinese player raised his arm so they got a penalty at the last minute, otherwise it was going to be a Udinese victory. They weren't classy.

Inter won 2-1 against Parma, Parma was good. Eriksen missed a big won, but fed one of the goals from a distance, they brought on Mohawk which wasn't much better. Lukaku fed the goals to Sanchez which scored both.

Lazio Juve 1-3. Lazio looked like it was all over Juve and scored first, then in the second period Juve woke up and kept coming at them, Lazio wasn't able to do much, Ronaldo came in about the half of the second period. Great goal by Rabiot , Morata 2 goals. Monday Inter -Atalanta, it going to be a killer game. Juve will play against Porto again, they were losing 2-1.

Pirlo wanted to give CR7 a full match rest, it's impossible, ant's crawl up his rectum.

Juve are closing in on a summer transfer for Manuel Locatelli. ManCity is also interested, will they try to hijack him? Hijacking a player backfired on Barcelona. Nicolo Rovella will still be 19 when he moves to Juve in the summer, let's hope they don't keep him on the bench.

A mature performance by Milan against a well organized Verona that give Juve lots of problems. Hopefully Atalanta can do the deed in the Lombardese Derby.

Supersub Krunic started as a trequartista and made the most of it. Nice ploy by Pioli to start both Saelemaekers and Castillejo, it gave the midfield extra width, usually they sub each other. Leo took a shot to the pallinelli, the trainer held his legs in the air while Kessie poured water on his crotch. The cameraman panned to Tonali, warming up on the sidelines, he was doing everything he could not to laugh.

Very good game Inter Atalanta 1-0.. I love Atalanta they play so good, Inter managed to score. They had Vidal that sucked and they brought Eriksen in and did better than Vidal. Atalanta managed to break most Inter attacks. Conti was screaming at the empire at the begining non stop, I don't know for what and got himself a yellow card . Juve against Porto tommorow.

It was weird, I thought Verona would be more combative.

My God, I am so happy my childhood dream of playing fodbold in Italy did not come through. To be 29 years old and have a maniac coach stand on the sideline and yell at me would have made my career very short. I think I would have decked Conte. Red nose indtead of red card.

Conte is an idiot. Why would he play Vidal instead of Eriksen? And why play Eriksen as a defender. To use Eriksen as a defender is waste of talent. Lukaku and Martinez just need to be fed precise balls forward, then they will score. Notice that 10 seconds after Eriksen came on, he sent a precise corner into the box.

What drives me crazy is that Conti has destroyed Eriksen as a forward midfielder, and therefore likely destroyed Denmark's chances in the European championship. Eriksen has been pivotal on the Danish National team.

Rafael Leao's busted play attempt didn't go as planned.

Juve against Porto tommorow.

The Dane seems upset. Let's hope Juve don't screw the pooch.

The Dane seems upset.

Damn right he is.

It is clearly an unfair scheme to handicap Denmark in EM. Denmark is Italy's biggest fear.

I don't understand how the Europa Nations League works? Obviously there was no tournament last year, the sched says that the semi-finals will be played in Meazza and Juve Stadium with the participants being Italy vs Spain, France vs Belgium.

So what are the games later this month, WC qualifying? The nastiness has screwed up everything.

I had to break out the Lagavulin to endure Juve in the CL. Sergio Conceicao' tactics are spotless, make Juve go beddy bye and hit them on the counter-attack. He is a Serie A veteran after all.

Its my mistake , I shouldn't have mentioned the player with a "E". He gets angry if he starts, he's upset if he doesn't start and he thinks that because he's a striker, he should replace Lukaku or Lautaro. Not going to happen. He's playing midfield and he does a good job passing the balls forward. That's where he's going to stay.

Great video LOL !! Juve just couldn't do it against Porto, their defense was very strong. But great game. I know Ronaldo is capo cannoniere but he doesn't do much. Chiesa on the other hand hustles.

Come on. I can understand you are tired of my posting about Eriksen, but don't misrepresent what I am posting.

Eriksen is not a striker, He is a natural forward midfielder, in Italian a trequartista. He does not do well as a defender or defensive midfielder, which is what Conte wants.
As trequartista he can better than Inter's other midfielders send precise passes to Lukaku and Martinez.

In the game against Atalanta Lukaku and Martinez did not get enough good passes. Inter was lucky to win the game.

 

[Conil]

Eriksen with Inter is going to be a midfielder, I watched all the games and when he plays he's always playing midfield and he moves forward with the other guys. The game before this last one he was instrumental with the passing the scoring goals to the strikers. He missed a big goal when he was inside the goal area, but shit happens. I prefer him to Vidal and I don't know if Vidal will be starting again.


1. Arturo Vidal Must Not Start In Big Games

Arturo Vidal proved once again against Atalanta that against high brow opponents he shouldn’t be in the starting XI.

Clumsy, pedestrian and lacking pace, the Chilean saw himself withdrawn early in the second period for Christian Eriksen who proved a better fit.

A laboured display from the Chilean showed that age is perhaps beginning to catch up with him as a lack of match sharpness also clearly affected the midfielder.

Based on current form, Eriksen must start.

Vidal has lost a few steps, danmand is right, Eriksen should start. Conte being a defense first type of coach, he wants the Dane to play an all round game, Inter are a different club when he starts. Barella has to play deeper, he can handle the registra role.

Juve fucks up again, they were in decline when CR7 joined them. Their midfield is a mess, now that they have gone out early again, they may not be able to afford Locatelli - he could end up at ManCity. Dybala is in the same state as Eriksen, however he's had plenty of chances to become world class, he's been invisible every time. Pirlo doesn't him much less Rabiot who's superhuman for 10 minutes, crap for the other 80. Time for the Milano clubs to show up in the CL, here's hoping Ac Milan can stay ahead of Juve.

Locatelli has proved himself irreplaceable with the Azzurri, his time at Sassuolo is done...this would make me sick.

Of all people, Pirlo should be able to organize the midfield.
