Inter, who lost the derby, seemed to me to be a presumptuous team. The thing that stands out most is that Lautaro he played, he shot but above all he didn’t score. The change in scoring streak, his but also Thuram’s and others’, is a sign of how there isn’t the same fluidity as last year. A speech that also involves other departments: Acerbi didn’t understand anything, Pavard was embarrassing in Pulisic’s goal. Because in the big teams individual performances make the difference, and at Inter only Bastoni, Dimarco and Sommer were saved. To give continuity to the victories, to win again you have to give something more than the year before: everyone faces you in a different way, you have to raise the level. Inzaghi is the only one who understood this, only now he has to be good at transmitting the message to the players.
Motta’s Juve’s problem: Vlahovic is not Zirkzee

Milan, Leao remains a problem
A great victory for Milan from an emotional point of view, but there are still many doubts about how the big players played. If Leao is still sorry to go out, but then without him the team wins, the signal is that the group is not there yet. With all those opportunities, Milan won at the last minute with a defender. Furthermore, the match was won on the counterattack, a belief that does not belong to Fonseca. The Portuguese left the flanks to Inter (who didn’t take advantage of it) defending very tightly, but he didn’t impose the game. In short, it was a Milan more Trapattonian than Sacchian.
Juve-Napoli, a pain in the ass
Juve-Napoli, if I may use the term, was a pain in the ass. No one gave a metre for fear of conceding a goal. In 95′ there was a flash of brilliance from Cambiaso who gave an excellent ball to Koopmeiners for Juve, while on the other side we were content with Politano’s accelerations. Full stop. The fans deserve more courage from these two teams. Everyone was good at running diagonally, holding the pitch, but in the end can we get excited because Bremer didn’t let Lukaku touch the ball or because Napoli didn’t give them any depth? Thiago Motta can say as much as he wants that Juve played a good game, but that’s not the case. About Vlahovicwhen he misses 8 goals then we will criticize him. But taking him off during the break was an undeserved punishment, because then he should have taken off another 6… The center forward is not judged by a bad stop, but by how he exploits favorable situations. And Juve did not create one for him…
Vlahovic’s crisis, Motta’s choices: inside the numbers of Juve that no longer scores
by Emanuele Gamba
But also Napoli: from a midfield and an attack like that I expect more, even if they didn’t suffer in defense. I would instead like ten Politanos who try to create numerical superiority. But if the coaches urge you not to risk, then you have to resign yourself. Of course if you don’t keep the right distances you risk a counterattack, but if you don’t risk it you score three 0-0s in a row, a rhythm that saves you. So long live Torino, who play with an open face, score goals. And there I’ll grant you the 0-0 with Lecce at home. But from other teams that want to compete (in terms of earnings and history) with the big teams in Europe, definitely not.
Roma, a great first half like in Genoa
I’m moving on to Roma. I remember the first half in Genoa, where I saw a wonderful team. The same first half they played yesterday, even if with a different coach. I’m not good at understanding things that have little to do with football, but the atmosphere is heavy. And in Rome if you play well without the support of the public you are a phenomenon, given the symbiotic relationship between team and fans. So a solution is needed.

Brainless football and penalties in Florence
I’ll close with the penalties given to Fiorentina against Lazio. Unfortunately, with this football, it happens to everyone to lose a match in that way. It happened to Lazionext Sunday it will be someone else’s turn. After all, this is a brainless football that has ridiculed the meaning, the very philosophy of the penalty kick.
