Sky confirms the news given by Gazzetta dello sport earlier today that it seems like Vidic could be sacrificed for the derby. Mancini is trying out a 4-3-1-2 with Dodo and Nagatmo on the flanks, and Ranocchia together with Juan in the central defense. This means Vidic will miss out the game and the Serbian defender will have to impress to regain his starting spot.
This is Inter’s probable line up for the game on Sunday according to Sky:
HANDANOVIC
NAGATOMO RANOCCHIA JUAN JESUS DODO’
GUARIN KUZMANOVIC HERNANES
KOVACIC
ICARDI PALACIO

I don’t thnik Hernanes will be fit in time for the match.
of course mancini won’t put vidic in the starting eleven he hates man united lol
The best formation we have at the moment .. without injured players.
palacioosvaldo and kuzmanovicm vila
All the people that know about Mancini, are talking about a 4312 formation.
I will wait and see if this works, but afraid of Mancini getting stuck on it.
I would prefer a 433 with palacio icardi osvaldo, and of course Vidic at back. Inter will be a monster playing this formation.
Imagine the opposite teams what to expect from this attack.
Only fear!!
As he said he cant deploy certain formation without offensive outsiders. That’s why in january we are aiming to get either borini salah campbell and cerci.
we cannot deploy 4-3-3 simply because we had no resources to do so. at least not right now
What do u mean resources?
Remember when we had Strama as coach, with cassano milito palacio upfront? We killed rube in turin and we had no other serious attacking player on the bench. That’s how Bonazzoli can get in the squad, having good players on his side. And not to much pressure on him.
we had livaja back then as the fourth choice. he was more experienced back then than bona at this point. then you also fail to remember that we had guarin and alvarez which both of them can play as a wider striker. while at this current condition, we only had two young unexperienced striker as their backup and almost none attacking mid aside of kova since i heard herna and guaro’s condition are still doubtful. and also lack of defensive midfielder to create the balance. cerci would be great to help this team for january but he is not here right now
Partly, well said.
IMO, Bona is way better than Livaja was back then.
I agree with you but when Guaro and Hernanes are in shape i insist we should play with 3 attackers.
Kuzmanovic is in good form.Expect good game from him.
He is quite good lately.
Does only needed things and does not overdo it.
I hope he scores a distance shot and gain confidence.
I wish we get a good rightback in winter.i hate this nagatomo
It’s not even his natural position, tought Nagatomo > Dodo in LB.
noup
I don’t think we need one. D’ambrosio will be solid rb when he gets healthy. Andreolli and M’baye can also play there. Let’s see how it pans out before making any moves.
I saw M’Villa and D’Ambrossio training. Does anyone know when they’ll become available?
Both would be better option rather than Kuz as DM and Naga as RB, but i think it is to risky to deploy them after injury especially for the upcoming derby.
Medel is injured?
Banned for red card against Verona!
Thx pal
