”We had a great first half, we conceded a goal at our first mistake. We continued playing after conceding, we attacked time and time again without giving Verona any opportunities at all. After that we struggled a bit while playing with ten men, which is normal. Also, let’s not forget that we are in the middle of a bad run. The late goal from Verona was predictable. It’s a shame, because if we had moved the ball around a bit more we could have left the game with three points”. This is what Walter Mazzarri said to Sky after the 2-2 game at home against Hellas Verona.
Is a slow passing rhythm the problem? “Verona try to block everything in front of their own penalty area, and in spite of that we managed to find the cracks in their defence. It’s obvious that you need patience when you play an opponent like Verona”.
Ahead of the game, Erick Thohir talked of victory as the only objective tonight. Is he disappointed? “A bit of disappointment is normal when a game ends like this, and when everything seems to go against you, like Medel’s two yellow cards. The first card, in my opinion, could have been avoided by the referee”.
What happened to Icardi? ”He thought that I was blaming him for the goal we just conceded, but what I wanted was to ask him if he could stay on the pitch for another half a minute. I was already going to sub him, but he also asked me to do it. There are no hard feelings, my relation with Icardi is one of the best that I have had with a player in my career. It was only a misunderstanding in the heat of the moment because he was nervous about losing the lead, like we all were”.
What went wrong at Verona’s last goal? “Sometimes we are a bit slow when it comes to understanding the situation and we get outplayed. We could have avoided putting ourselves in a hurry, but we aren’t used to waiting: we always attack”.
Is Thohir’s project still realistic? “The project is for three years. And let’s not forget that we are still evaluating the young players who are going to be the backbone of Inter in the coming years. Obviously it is hard for a club that is normally at the top to understand that it is going to take some suffering. The team has had a couple of tough games, but now we are on our way back. Everyone is fighting for the team”.

i say inter did play decent until that red card..how on earth can u make such a move being booked yellow in your box rising ur hands like a keeper?! this dumbness caused the decrease in the team preformance!
however same story like nagatomo against cagliari..this players show they lack character and intelligence
Let’s keep supporting Mazzari and watch this team fall out of the european places. This team cannot play 3 at the back and even more worryingly when they switch to four they seem clueless. Mazzari has lost the players and his mind, too many points have been dropped for us to even consider getting into the Champions League next season #Mazzarimustgo
Remember that optimism and hope we all had during the start of the season? That’s already been completely and utterly eradicated, just something to take note of.
SACK HIM ARLEADY!!!I CAN’T BEAR WATCHING MY INTER PLAYING LIKE A MIDTABLE TEAM!I CAN’T BARE WATCHING OUR INTER PLAYING LIKE CRAP!
No offence to Mazzari but his style doesn’t fit inter!We need a coach that can play with a #9 and support it with attacking wingers and a #10!!!Icardi needs support to score not going all the way back to the defenders to take the ball drible past the whole enemy team and score!CAN’T MAZZARI SEE THAT!?”SCORING PROBLEMS” MY ASS!STRONGEST ATTACK ON ITALY AFTER ROMA and we can’t score…those are stuped things mazzari and media say to pay “respect” to mazzari bcz he was good with Napoli,sry for that BUT NAPOLI WAS A GOOD TEAM!A 64MILLION EUROS STRIKER(Cavani) A 30MILLION WINGER(Lavezzi) A 40MILLION #10(Hamsik)!NO WONDER HE DID WELL!!We are Inter we need someone with class not someone with wide@ss!
Those three except Cavani are unknown before Mazzari, Napoli bought all of them for less than 30 Million.
Cavani 17 Million
Lavezzi 6 Million
Hamsik 5.5 Million
yet this is what inter buys with 30 million: 11 million perreyra, 7 mill Schelotto, 6 mill Silvestre, 5 mill Kuzmanovic…..wow that is pathetic when you observe how shrewd napoli is when they buy players…..
STRONGEST ATTACK ON ITALY AFTER ROMA ??????????? ARE YOU INSANE OR WHAT !!! Juventus has the best attack in italy……Tevez-llorente-morata-coman-giovinco….did you see them plow parma 7-0? and inter lost 2-0 to that team ??? if mazzarri should have been fired it should have happened after the parma game not now!
I’d say Fiorentina and Roma are still better in attack than Juve. Juve relies on their midfield (and the refs :D)
Juve relies on their midfield? ALL THE MORE REASON WHY THEY HAVE THE BEST ATTACK IN ITALY !!!!
geezz.how i miss yo mom so much..loved to slap her butt man ..
I can’t count how many games we failed for a season and a half with Mazzarri as a coach, especially in the end of the games and how many stupid mistakes and easy goals we conceded. And after that still to blame the circumstances is unbelievable. For so many time if you can’t see the problems and can’t make changes and adjustments, who’s the fault?
Some of the high profile Interisti on twitter blamed and laugh at Mazzari for subbing out Icardi in the last minutes then start to speculate things. . . .
