La Gazetta dello Sport underlines the dreadful performance of Cristian Ansaldi against Lazio and opens up for a change before the game against Juventus: “He is the defender with the lowest percentage when it comes to duels, only 58.6%. Also, he has the lowest average of complete passes with 75.6%. He is the player with the highest number of yellow cards (6) and the only player to get sent off (against Palermo). ”
“Stefano Pioli have to be realistic and evaluate which players to use against Juventus, especially at his side where Juan Cuadrado could play. The alternatives are Yuto Nagatomo and Davide Santon. Yuto has only played against Pescara and Santon hasn’t been a starting player for a long time.”

He’s absolutely clumsy, funny he wasn’t like that before injury. I dunno if he’s still not back to full agility or he’s damaged forever. Time will tell with him. He also needs more competition for the role to wake his brain up, poor decision making sometimes where he loses the ball on a dribble and can’t recover… still our best lb right now.
AnsaldI offensive stats look bad because he tries riskier passes, he tries to play way more final balls than Danilo who often plays it safe easy pass
bring back di marco
He didn’t cost us the game against Pesacara, but costed us too many games before. Against Cagliari in San Siro, Rube in Turin, Napoli, EL…
cant murillo be deployed as a left back and medel with miranda in the middle?
All for Yogatomo!
Lol, did you watch the game Pascara? Dude other players were avoiding him. He couldn’t dribble one Pascara defender, now he wants to perform against Rube? Nagashit is not even a starter for Japan anymore…
We trust in Yogatomo!
Use Murillo as our FB. He is fast and capable to cover Cuadrado/ Dybala. Medel should cover Higuain as CB. He did pretty well in final Copa America
That works too, maybe Danilo left and Murillo right? Then again I feel Murillo acrobatic / athletic ability is more suited to cover cuadrado
I feel sorry for people when they are calling for a shit like Nagashit, the single reason of our elimination for Europa League… Didn’t you have enough of suffering from that shit??? Ansaldi is no star either but At least Ansaldi makes some forward passes!

I want CL more than manolas
me too.. but let’s celebrate for awhile for f’s sake…we have a tough match ahead, when u get so greedy , u surely lose….humble urself ,once they underestimate you back-stab them
he was born as “krisis”.
nagatomo should give him yoga lessons, but …
spitting on naga is sport among inter fans, a he never has been so bad like this aregentina-underachiever.
Is this a poem?
Sounds nice tbh
I’ll take this as a compliment, ;-))
1. Big no to 3 man defense
2. Kondo way much better than Brozo
Why big no man?
Mazzarri effect 😀
It’s outdated, has too many bugs, and simply doesn’t suit us. Show me team who has been able to win in Europe for long term with 3 man defense, there is none.
U guys are just shouting Chelsea and Rube, but man! Rube won because of their giant revenue and only won inside of Italy, and Chelsea is winning in EPL because of other coaches’ stupidity.
I dont mind if it is for temporary solution. U know how bad our fbs are
It can’t, our mid hasn’t played this formation and it will cause confusion
Cuadrado is a very dangerous winger, we should put medel on the left back instead of ansaldi
I wont do that. But in 3 man defense i dont mind making him left cb
It simple the game Sunday will b down to 2 things 1 how or Fb deal with Alex Sandro n Cuadrado if there allowed to cross and cut in n shoot as the please will b a busy night for godmanovic.second if our midfield can bully dybla and company
Gaglia-Kondo will make the second one done
Agree our problems is in the flank. Too bad if we have to sacrifice perisic to stay deep n watch cuardado
You never know, if we are clicking in midfield cuadrado will be so busy tracking back to cover Ivan since Alex Sandro is mediocre as a defender… one thing they lost with Evra was the defensive nous, yes he was an older French player but he was formed in Italy and had a very Italian way of operating as a fb. Against big teams Evra was their go to guy.
If we do play ansaldi I can see him an Perisic giving Sandro/cuadrado reasons to track back. Let’s just hope jeisons good form continues so he uses that zip in his step to cover for ansaldi defensively.
Pioli may surprise us and play miranda medel murillo back 3 with Ivan and candreva wings and gaglia kdog mario, up front icardi and palacio/Eder as foil.
We can use medel to man mark dybala. He will be useless like previous match
the department that we are better than juve is in the midfield if we control in the midfield their attack will not find some one to feed
hi guys forget about rb and lb, what about this, if we use speedy wingers you against https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/e627542b964a98764a27ce94bb8175785ed6d6a0cf5fb3c06b46e4cf043b8207.jpg persic was defending an attacking
Should have been kondo gaglio double pivot and brozo joao mario cmf or amf. Our best players are midfielder. Lets use them all. Attack them from the start. Joao and brozo have great work rate. It should be good defensively
Just don’t touch 4 man defense
Will work if Perisic candreva take turns dropping down, model central with Miranda on right, and finally double pivot with gaglia kondogbia, kdog really shines with gaglia next to him. Real question is mario or brozo, when brozo is on his game he’s a monster amf since his shooting and aggression is better than mario.
Maybe start with brozo and then introduce mario to change it up, Eder or palacio for me, palacio has the smart moves, better touch, more experience and more of a big game player where Eder tends to disappear. But Eder does offer more consistent off the ball harrying with that motor of his, just that his final product is too often poor and he never seems composed/relaxed on the ball… always seems anxious/nervous. Palacio may have lost pace but the guy knows how to make a no 9 shine just like his old self used to make a considerably worse Martin Palermo look like more than a seal!
Kondo for Brozo.
nagashit as he’s good with pacy players like cuadrado and Salah. We are sow vulnerable on these fb. We can go back to 3-5-2.
Big no to 3D
What do u think we should do? I don’t trust these fb.
That’s just replacing one problem with another
I refuse to believe that. Lol
Nah, read the chat. He wasnt joking. He mean it. Because ansaldi was really bad now he says he was joking
I’m with you on this one
Oke, Lets vote.. 🙂
Lol
I am not angry. Just want to make a point how i hate people saying him good player
he’s world class.. LOL.. now you hate me..XD
Stfu
Lmao
LMAO..XD
So Inter have DD as a regular, and are stuck with having to chose between Ansaldi, Santon and Nagatomo on the other side.
Please get the fullback situation sorted once and for all during summer mercato.
Gotta give pioli credit, he made dambrosio solidly average.
For me it’s simple, play ansaldi if we want more attacking which would be risky against Juve, or play naga who’s better defensively if his job is only to close down cuadrado and then give the ball to Murillo/kdog for distribution.
One thing I like about ansaldi is that he crosses first time, naga always cuts in and it never works because his style has been found out, would love to see a coach to instruct naga to run to the byline then cross… i guess problem is his dribbling/crossing technique is too poor… naga attributes are his physical qualities and solid mentality, probably the safe choice against Juve.
Santon needs to be sold immediately, yes he’s a professional and doesn’t let his preference bleed into his career but the guy is a self admitted milanista, maybe we trade him for antonelli since montella doesn’t use him?
Whoever wants to say ansaldi is world class player need to shut up I am tired people defend him
Waiting for jackablood who said ansaldi is class
Watch out! You might trigger him again
I will give his chat again to prove jackablood is fraud football expert
Ansaldi is better than Santon and Nagatomo, but we all know how Nagatomo can be good in big matches.
Inter ansaldi is crap
3-5-2 handa – medel miranda murillo – perisic gagli mario brozo candreva – icardi gabigol :p
He’ll become Super Saiyan Naga 4.
Ansaldi is a world class player!
Stfu
XD
Cant argue, he is world ass player
Go with Nagatomo, he’ll do Kamikaze attack. Will sacrifice his life. Ansaldi is very bad at defending, Anderson goal against us was one of the case.
I’ve said it before and many have disagreed. The stats speak for themselves! This guy is dud! He’s not the player he was at Genoa. He’s crap!
He is thecrap of the crap
Agreed brother
Perisic should play as a wingback this game, we have no other alternative.
————-Handanovic
——–Murillo-Miranda-Medel
Candreva-Gagliardini-Brozo-Perisic
—————Mario-Eder
——————Icardi
I agree but we haven’t played with that system for a realy long time.
Also since we are gonna use w Wingers as WB we should keep a more defencive mid with Kondo Gagliardini.Murilo LCB Medel CB Miranda RCB
That’ll be a bit tricky …we need the defensive cover on the flanks…cuadrado would have a hay day and it’s inevitable that we’d concede..eventually one of his crosses would meet a juve player.
Use kondo gaglio. It is better defensively
Nope, Gaglia-Brozo is better cuz Brozo doesn’t need someone to cover his mistakes.
I am not sure about that. But i think kondo gaglio give more balance to the team, stability and physical presence in the mid. Brozo for me is not suitable for double pivot mid. Just my opinion though
And a correct opinion it is.
Yep especially since brozo can strike the ball infinitely better than mario, Kdog, gaglia. Really has an eye for goal and a lead foot, ideal hustling amf like a more attacking oriented naingollan
No to Brozo. Yes to Kondo.
HI you got it from my mind that is very good
All hail the new Lord Ansalbitch… He will get raped by any pacy winger cuz, by the time Ansaldi turns around, the opponent is already in our box facing Handa one on one. Sometimes he just disappears from his flank.. when he feels like not defending anymore.
Now, I’m waiting for his fans to explain to us how much of a great fullback he is.
Just play Santon on Sunday.
Or even Nagatomo(i can’t believe i’m saying this). He’s usually good against Cuadrado.
You wanna play Lord Naga or Santon? They’re same.
Personally I prefer Santon. I still prefer Ansaldi over the samurai lol, maybe cuz he’s been here half a season compared to 5 years for Naga
I always see the same phase. Attack from right flank then cross to long left. What can we do? Nothing. Our FB still the worse.
We need Ricardo Rodriguez! Until then, I just want somebody who can’t defend at least. Ansaldi gets passed way to easily.
Yes, Santon knows the value of the shirt and understands very well what is at stake, he’ll do anything it takes to defend.
Naga has speed at least… At least when he does his crap he can recover.. The others well…santon I still like him but it’s not known how he would play..it could either work well or slap us in the face.Ansaldi is bad…he’s good for smaller teams but can’t play under pressure for 90 mins against quality forwards.
Yeah but even naga is losing his pace. That’s the impression I got from the few games he played this season..
speed and stamina is the only thing he has, but still better than santon or ansaldi
Naga did well with fast winger
Santon, he is better in defence than naga. this is a tight game, strong defence is a must.
If only Miangue stayed we could use him as limited FB to guard the left flank.
Miangue will be developed in cagliari. Calma. When he gain enough experience he will come back
True, he’ll get better playing time. With his pace and big figure hopefully he’ll be a great FB.
and … Inter sell him just like coutinho and then Ausillio will say it’s my biggest regret. Damn…
He is no great fullback but he is our best offensive fullback. yes you heard it right. He is our only fullback capable of dribbling. I feel sorry for people when they are calling for a shit like Nagashit, the single reason of our elimination for Europa League… Didn’t you have enough of suffering from that shit??? At least Ansaldi makes some forward passes!
Totally and santon guarantees at least one massive eff up per game, he’s like ranocchia in that sense… but at least rano is bkss for 87 minutes then has 3 minutes of insanity.
Do you guys remember when santon was introduced last time after he was benched? He was horrible. Santon is a momentum/moody player, he hasn’t the confidence right now against sharp guys like cuadrado/fatzalo
