Today’s Corriere dello Sport picks up on the tactical difficulties Inter suffered in midfield against Atalanta. Despite being outnumbered the visitors duo of Cigarini and Carmona made very few mistakes against Inter’s three midfielders and Guarin plus Hernanes were often forced into long shots because they couldn’t find a penetrative pass. “The last midfielder to beat the goalkeeper remains Cambiasso, on December 15 last year, a worrying statistic. That is why it is no coincidence that after 2 victories in a row, for the fifth time Inter have failed in an attempt for the trio of victories. Something is missing from this team in attack but also in midfield” concludes the report.

We must exploit better our chances. I’ve told it a million times. It’s ridiculous to lose such opportunities to score. It’s also ridiculous to hit woodwork four times.When you waste your chances you get punished in the end.This is a life rule not only in football.I hope in the next game we don’t repeat the same mistakes and hopefully be more cynical in front of goal.With the possesion and chances we had in the game we should score at least 4 goals.
What´s missing is the courage to play with an attacking midfielder infront of Guarin and Hernanes! To turn the triangle upside down, so to speak! Instead of playing with to box-to-box players and a holding midfielder we should play with an attacking – what could be Ricky or Kova
