    [Serie A] Fake Scudetti winners vs JUVENTUS (29) (Oct. 3rd 2010)

    It was very good. Storari looked shaky when he came for one or two and I think a couple of Juve's corners early in the game weren't cleared immediately and resulted in scrambles. Juve seem to be going for zonal marking at corners, rather than man-to-man. I'm not a fan of zonal marking for a...

    Yup. I've seen Coutinho a few times now and really don't see anything much in him.

    Not really. Juve need a rest after a tough few weeks.

    Good performance from Juve. Inter are still a superior team, but Juve were disciplined and stood up to the challenge physically. I don't like the space Juve leave between defence and midfield, though. The CBs also need to be given more protection. It was ridiculous how often Inter players...

    Marchisio on the wing is okay. After all, all Juve's left winger is in the team for in this game is stopping Maicon.

    Edinburgh and their rugby. :disagree: Everywhere will be showing Real Madrid or Barca tonight, since most folk prefer La Liga to Serie A.

    :agree: Juve will need his hard work and defensive ability even more if Aquilani is starting.

    That applies to Iaquinta. Amauri, though not creative, wants to be involved in the game. I wish he spent more time in goal scoring positions. I would certainly be starting with either Del Piero or Quagliarella alongside Amauri, if they are all fit enough to start.

    Not really. Their movement is very different. Amauri looks to play with his back to goal and link the play. Iaquinta spends most of the game looking to run in behind defence. I agree. I posted something similar yesterday and concluded that I probably wouldn't start Iaquinta in this game.

    [Serie A] Fake Scudetti winners vs JUVENTUS (29) (Oct. 3rd 2010)

    It's not what I would do, but Iaquinta and Amauri can work in this game. What is going to be needed, though, is a top class performance from Melo and Aquilani. Aquilani will have to try to get forward to partially fill the space that Del Piero not playing leaves in the team, to prevent a big...

    [Serie A] Fake Scudetti winners vs JUVENTUS (29) (Oct. 3rd 2010)

    Hopefully Del Neri watched Roma-Inter and saw how Roma tore Inter apart by moving the ball quickly to get Menez one-on-one with Chivu. Lucio and Codoba are pretty quick, so a player running in behind isn't likely to cause them too much concern, which means Iaquinta may not be well suited to...

    [Serie A] Fake Scudetti winners vs JUVENTUS (29) (Oct. 3rd 2010)

    If all of them are in good physical condition, I'd play Melo and Marchisio in this game. I'd be tempted to add Aquilani to that and play 4-5-1, though.

    [Serie A] Fake Scudetti winners vs JUVENTUS (29) (Oct. 3rd 2010)

    Agree. Sissoko would get out of position and Aquilani is too lightweight to hold the midfield together by himself.

    I wanted clarity as to which Inter you wanted them to be. As far as I can tell, like most top clubs, they've had periods of success and periods of mediocrity.

    Did you prefer the Inter that one back-to-back European Cups in the '60s? I hate the Inter team of that period.
