Substitutes: Carrizo, Berni, Andreolli, Kovacic, Podolski, Obi, Felipe, Gnoukouri, Puscas, Nagatomo, Shaqiri, Bonazzoli.

Good win, But I didn’t like our first goal, Just my opinion
Honestly I don’t care who goes as long as it isn’t handanovic or icardi ._. Maybe kova as well but I don’t see him improving much under Mancini…at least not this season.
mazzari took 16pts in first 11 games without brozo, shaqiri, podolski, santon, felipe while your ”god” mancio take 15pts in 11 games against same opponents…what a miracle worker is this guy i cant believe that!!!
Relax man things would change….give him time
Mazzari also had a whole summer to make a team…. and half a year to suck
We gave Mazzari a full second season to try his magic, why shouldn’t we let Mancini try to do things his way with his players next season too?
You do know that today neither santon, shaqiri or podo played right?
stop bitching and see what facts are!!!
Ooooh 1 point difference LETS NOT GIVE HIM A CHANCE
We always seem to play good before derbies lol I hope we crush milan and break menes’ both feet ._.
Gonna sleep happy tonight…it´s been a while now. Fucking great game from Hernanes, Palacio and Handanovic. Now can´t wait derby next week and us kicking some rossoneri as. God night guys and forza Inter!
Icardi was good too, active, nice goal and nice assist.
When you actually look at the statistic, Guaro’s 7 goals and 6 assists is pretty impressive for a central midfielder in 24 games.
OG
Doesn’t change the fact lol.
He is impressive like that but he has had like 10 good games and 14 invisible ones
Yeah, main problem. The games in which he scored/assisted are usually his only good ones as well…Too bad.
He has potential so maybe next season he learns how to be consistent?
at 29 years old!! 🙂
Nah, he was already like this since we got him…This “maybe he is better next season” falls in the same basket as “we are aiming for scudetto next season”.
Yeah it’s good for an average player…not when you have potential to do way better then that’s unacceptable.
OG
own goal lol xD
Guaro scored. xD
Parking the bus. Guess icardi won’t get a second goal
Too bad. Would love to see him as a top scorer in this disaster season.
WTF WHY HERNANES AND NOT GUARIN??!!
Because he’s more important for derby maybe? 🙂
true xD
to rest him for next match
at the 88th minute?
Because they need a few more birds to drop dead(friendly banter with an overused joke) :D.
New kid is so nervous
Nice to see Handanovič having a great game again.
They should stop crying for a second penalty, they got one and wasted it, its not a damn charity.
who is that new player? First time i am seeing him
Primavera midfielder. Standard in most matches I think.
Defender?
Midfielder.
Was about to rant about him not using Kovačič when I saw the double sub…Okay…Still too late but we are getting there…
What I cant understand is why guarin has to play 90 minutes every match
Can somebody explain why Shakiri doesn´t play?
Cuz of the milan match
Hope so
either being rested for Milan or lack of determination in training.
Who?
Except for the penalty defenders were awesome tonight. Especially interceptions.
MOTHER FLIPPIN BATMANOVC !!!!!!!
Wow batmanovic the penalty stopper
WE SHOULD KEEP HIM NEXT SEASON!!!!!!!!!!! I DONT CARE!!!!!
HANDA YOU FUCKING BEQST 7 PENALTIES IN A ROW
BATMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANOVIC!!!!!!!!!!!
No prob, handa is ready
FUCKING BATMAN THE MOTHERFUCKING BATMANOVIČ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If we don’t win this……………………………………….
oh fuck you vidiccc!!!
Vidič what the hell man, he was never going to get that why foul……
Am i the only one who didnt see the foul
what’s wrong with midfield line while defending? the penalty area becomes very dangerous because when the defenders doing ok, the midfielders doing blank..they didn’t read the opponents’ position, just watching the ball coming
Medel wants to intercept always for some reason
Guarin goes upfront and never wants to come back
Brozo is a threat to human lives so mancio tells him to keep away
The ref keeps a special card in pocket that says “Use in case of Brozovič”.
Brozovic is like an angry kovacic . Always gets booked
Hes a tall Medel in the making.
Seriousl mancio sub guarin -.-
If a player dropped dead on the field Mancini would still be “Nah, I don’t need to use subs”.
Dat post
Ahhhhh unlucky
Palacio is awesome tonight
If only he was in form in the 1st half of the season like he is now.
Laat season he kept saving our asses
True that
actualy he have injury problem for whole season, n still continues to run in every match.. we have to give credit for that at least..
My pref. starting XI vs Milan: Handanovič, D’Ambrosio, Ranocchia, JJ/Vidič, Santon, Hernanes, Medel, Kovačič,Shaqiri,Icardi,Palacio in 4-3-1-2. Thoughts, opinions?
I just jizzed
Out with D´Ambrosio and in with Naga,,rest is good!
naga sucks, ambrosio is better
Ages since I´v seen Ambro had a good shot or for that matter good anything,.
I would maybe agree if it wasn’t Nagatomo’s first game after such long time…For now I think D’Ambrosio is better, more prepared.
Let’s just agree that both suck. Flashes of brilliance from both come very rarely.
Yeah..haha
We need Santon clone and then maybe we have a half decent fullback partnership.
Medel plays as a cb in chile national. Why don’t we use him in the same way ?
The dude is way too short
Who will play as CDM then. I think we are better off having JJ at CB than Kuzma at CDM. Maybe if we had someone like M’Vila in form.
Right. By the way where the fuck is mvila ????
Back in Russia.
Yes he is CB in 3 man defence but not in 4
Send in kova…. guarin has been invisible
We need to stay in focus and not slip now.
Feb 8 against Palermo was the last time we kept a clean sheet in serie a, I demand a clean sheet today !!!!!!!!!!!!
If that was samuel we would have been 3 up
BATMAANOVIC !!!
Handanovic
Handa still got it.
It is fucking pleasure for me watching Hernanes play tonight. He is awesome tonight!
Which is more shocking? Juventus losing and Inter winning?
*or
Players should not get praise over this game, we still have a long way to go
But very very important win for a peace of mind for the team as derby approaching.
Yes that the players should know on their own… someone like the coach or mangement telling them that will make them cocky
Hernanes and icardi are on fire !!! Love to see hernanes alongside kivacic in the derby
Makes me wonder if we should play two AMF behind icardi (hernanes and shaq)
Hmm… A 4-3-2-1 or a 4-2-2-2 . Sounds good
4-3-2-1 : Kuz, kova and medel in mid
Problem is kuz…
Id prefer a 4-2-2-2 with medel-kovacic and shaq-hernanes and icardi-podolski for the three two’s
But palacio is awesome
But poldi is better in important games . Like the game against juve
That was the only game he played well….
It’s not that he is better against them rather than that it was his only decent game.
Now 2 more by Icardi for a hattrick, 4-0 victory and him securing his spot as the top scorer in Serie A.
Wowo did anyone catch JJ’s fail…
Beautiful counterattack…nice!
Looks like the extensive training has done some real good on the players
nah, verona suck lol xD
LET ME DREAM
Yay 2-0.
Good job
Wonder if anyone noticed that Juventus lost to Parma xD Karma for those assholes haha
They can afford to lose every game till the end of the championship and Roma might still fail to catch up. But yeah kinda feels good every time they lose 🙂
Yeah..also our 1-1 against Parma last week felt like a good result xD
Playing JJ at LB is like having sex with a 70 year old woman. You can do it but it doesn’t mean it’ll be good.
Still a better love story than playing with Campagnaro 😀
You seem to have experience:)
That was a stupid yellow card by the refree for guarin
Very stupid
hernanes, medel and kovacic to play against milan i hope?
Probably Obi and Kova sub in 89th minute.
The way Hernanes is playing I wouldn’t mind watching him in Guaro’s spot against Milan.
YAS
Only good thing with Guaros card is that Kova is playing and that feels good!
I wouldn’t be that sure xD. Unexpected Obi start xD
Don’t forget our lord!
Don´t forget Kuz.
Yeah. We will hope for Hernanes/Kova, we will get Kuzma/Obi xD
Sooo stupid, now Medel and then Ranochia and we are screwed,,,no, we are allready screwed!
Only Medel left to miss the derby. Come on, Pitbull, you can do it!
Hernans is lost
Wha…?
Guarin and Brozo already out against Milan :S
Hidden blessing hopefully.
FAAAAAAAAAAAAACK
That was no yellow card ref…
damn
When in doubt start kova against milan xD
true xD
Haha i knew he’ll get booked.
Like I said inevitable
Ah brozo you useless ass
This sideways playing is boriiiing!
I blame the midfield… no creativity just aggression and long passes
I’ve learned one thing about brozo… NEVER. GIVE. HIM. A. WEAPON.
Ranochias passing skill is shit…Hernanes is good!
IMO he has been solid in this game until now (rano that is)
too much posession is boring T_T
At least we are trying to send the ball into the box xD
The thing i hate is in other matches we keep passing too much and then lose the ball and the other team scores through the counter attacks. we dont play fast with the ball and we are too slow and then start to lose control. Thats what im trying to say.
I completely understand and got what you meant, I was just making a joke
Hernanes is our very best player!
I’ve been wanting him as a starter ever since he got to inter T.T and he’s been good ever since the Celtic match dunno why mancio doesnt use him
Second half shaq instead of palacio and kova instead of guaro
Juan is getting screwed on that left back position again x(
Hernanes is majestic
Worst thing about our players is their control… they can’t even handle normal passes
Wow that was dirty by us.
who cares?? we need to score and thats important. be satisfied will ya?
Yeah I agree, we are at point where goals are all that matter. Still, doesn’t mean that you have to feel good if its achieved via such play.
We won’t hear the end of this from tutto
Exactly. This is after all one goal, but do such things a lot and shame will remain for a long time.
Yep.
Yeah lets stop an attack while we were basically in the box. Fk them. We were screwed in harder ways than this.
Yeah I ain’t complaining, I’m happy we scored, but still…
The guy that fell was probably embarassed by ambrosio so he acted hurt xD
ICAAAAAARDIIII
Nice move ambrosio
Brozo getting yellow is inevitable
Now mancini understand hernanes’s worth as AMF
im being illogical, or being rude, but in term of tactical issue, can’t we play without players who are the starting line ups favorite? maybe for 4-5 matches in a row? rotate them? becoz, with them after all, we got nothing special..just IMO
Mancini doesnt sub until the 89th minute…. you expect him to be play bench players?
bad dive fuckwit
Dafuq guarin
G000L!
HANDANOVICCC!
Am I the only one worried about vidic?
Hernanes? Starting!? WEEEEEEE
We’re winning this, kuz isnt on the team sheet.
Ummm…. when was the last time kuz played?
Irrelevant, I’m talking about the list in general.
But still he is always on the bench and we still lose
I said because his not on the bench we are winning lol
and look what happened
So when kuz is on the bench we lose… that doesn’t make sense
his presence makes us lose… your lucky you support inter
…. I understand kuz is bad and when he plays we lose… but his presence? Really?
Where’s Santon ??
Aren’t you santon?
FFS. Guarin and JJ out. Nagatomo and Kovacic in.
Nagatomo ? Quick sell him directly
always better than blind juan
R u even watching inter in what world that’s nagatomo better than Juan
In a world that juan can only run. He has horrible positioning and doesn’t even try to jump for a header. He can’t cross either so is basically useless as a lb. Stop riding his dick.
Naga just came back from injury, so playing him would be weird (even though in my opinions he’s a better full back)
An injured Naga is better than this juan
Shaqiri from the bench then..
