Whenever he plays Higuain is out of service and game.
poor Higgy ::lol3::

That fucking header that hits the crossbar. If he scores, everybody would love the game from mandzo. But that's Football. Remember how he saved your ass against sporting in CL few months ago.
Higuain was invisible all game but it was Marios (a left winger) fault because he didnt score lol

You could say the same about Higuain with his misses. Both he, cuadrado and Mario all ballooned shots over the goal.

If Mario is going to be a winger (which he shouldn’t, sorry) then Cuads needs to be consistently trying to cross back post because Mario is easily the best in the air
What the fuck? :howler: It is clear as day that Mario should play LW and that he should not play striker unless both Higuain and (imo Dybala) are not fit to start. Like I said Mario was immense yesterday in all aspects EXCEPT finishing which he was awful and lost us the chance to win he should be winger. And did you not notice that Cuads WAS passing to the backpost to him all night long, it was our gameplan.

Yes. And Mandzukic was the only thread in attack b sides that Asamoah shot and Inter almost scoring an own goal. Higuaín had one weak shot from long range and that’s it.
No Cuadrado was the threat in attack lol Mario battled and pressed hard as usual but finishing was TERRIBLE. Especially his first chance of the game he was open, had time, space a favorable angle and stilll shot straight at the GK instead of the far corner. Gonzalo never gets that kind of time and space in the box but if he did he would've buried that chance with ease.

There is absolutely nothing that Mario offered yesteday that our other wingers couldn’t. His days at winger are limited and that is pretty clear for everyone to see.

Higuain is always isolated that’s why he is never alone except for 2-3 defenders around him. Our formation changes seems to suggest we are trying to play more thru the middle to his benefit.

As Allegri said after the match He is satisfied that Inter's wing don't do much crosses last night. It seems that his plan was working
He wants to neutralize main threat from wing and He use Mandz as target man from Cuad's deep cross.

But in the end of matches, He don't want to risk the balance. Dybala for Mandz, and D. Costa for Cuads could provide the spark as Inter defence got tired

This is pretty ridiculous considering Higuain won us a big game last week

He's a terrible left winger who provides nothing other than his workrate and his occasional aerial threat where he botches up the chances most of the time

Yes absolutely. Mandzukic has no business being compared to Higuaín

But he dint score. That's the whole point.

Higuain scored the winner in a big game last week, saved our asses against Sporting where we looked flat as hell, brace against Milan etc yet he is getting bashed week in week out. Now tell me what logic is that?

Irony is , Mandzukic is glorified not for his attacking skills or his goalscoring instincts but for his workrate.

There's no way he should even be considered ahead of Higuain at CF except for dead rubber games.

As for the wing position, Costa is in very good form. Criminal to bench him for an inferior LW in Mandzukic.

So ideally, his place should be on the bench.
