Bologna v Inter: Mortadella Speedbump on the Road to Catalonia

By: Johonna | Comments 5 Comments

Those two weeks were long. So long, in fact, that I have completely forgot what we were doing before it started. Something about points and kicking ass (or not, as the case may be)… It will come back to me, I’m sure. Anyway, here we are back to the championship, off to Bologna in an [...]

Why Foreigners are Important to Serie A

By: MAD | Comments 131 Comments

There is a perceived lack of Italians on this team, even though we have several, who apparently don’t count. Supporters of other teams, who like to find a reason to have a go at us, often use the “no Italians” chant to show their superiority where none might otherwise exist.

International Breaks Blow

By: Johonna | Comments 53 Comments

I understand that being called up to a National Team is an honor. It means that among all the players from your particular country, you are one of the very best at what you do. Great. Good for them. I am proud of our Internationals. Right now, Inter has 13 squad members out being [...]

Inter 1 – Roma 1

By: MAD | Comments 139 Comments

Well, we didn’t beat an opponent in the bottom half of the table. This would mark the first time this season that this has happened. A quick look at MAD’s Guide to the Scudetto shows that beating teams the show themselves to be in the second column of the league table home and away is [...]

Inter v Roma: Dipende da Noi

By: Johonna | Comments 128 Comments

Just as it should, this game gets top billing this weekend. Say what you will about Roma, for some reason they always bring it when they travel to Milan to play Inter. It doesn’t really seem to matter their form or where they sit in the table, when they come to the San Siro, they [...]

Inter 5 – Palermo 3, Zanetti 477

By: MAD | Comments 43 Comments

Let’s get this out of the way right now – when a defender takes out the back leg of the forward heading to goal, and doesn’t touch the ball, it’s a stone cold penalty. If Julio Cesar gets called for his “penalty” a week or so ago, than this is definitely one.
With that out of [...]

Inter v Palermo: Time to Play Catch-up

By: Johonna | Comments 118 Comments

The results are all in, and, no matter the outcome of the game tomorrow, we will still be top of the table come Friday. Although a draw would not be a disaster at this stage of the competition, a loss would sting. Plus, I want to win this one – four points in front [...]

Inter 2 – Catania 1

By: MAD | Comments 40 Comments

The dichotomy that is Inter concluded its 9th league game this past Saturday with an indifferent win. The dichotomy of course is that Inter can dominate so easily on Saturday and Sunday, but have such troubles on Tuesday and Wednesdays. Is it mental? Is it the competition? Is it familiarity? Is there some lack of [...]

Oh Ya, There is That Whole Serie A Thing Too

By: Johonna | Comments 83 Comments

Ok. So now we have to shake the Champions League blues from our hearts and minds and really, there would be no better way to do that than to unload a serious Genoa/Milan style whooping on Catania. But we musn’t get our ahead of ourselves, there are no sure things in football. Catania are [...]

But What Have You Done For Me Lately?

By: Johonna | Comments 231 Comments

Sure, Inter just dismantled Genoa on Saturday, but this is Tuesday and a whole new game. More importantly, this one is an absolute must win (no matter what Mou says). After two games, Inter are third (third!) in Group F, behind Barcelona and Dynamo. A win against tomorrow will move us up into second – [...]
