Bologna v Inter: Mortadella Speedbump on the Road to Catalonia

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 [...]

Inter 1 – Roma 1

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

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 v Palermo: Time to Play Catch-up

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

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

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?

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 – [...]

“Genoa are better than Inter” – Genoa 0 – Inter 5

Some may have forgotten the above statement, but I haven’t. And its statements like this that gets people into troubles. Not because I believe that there is a large a huge Karmic vortex that punishes hubris – although I could be wrong, it certainly seems like that often enough – but because it indicated sloppy [...]

Taking on the Dragon Slayers

On Saturday, Inter take the 1½ hour train ride (on the Intercity) from Milan to Genoa. This is no easy trip as Genoa have a long history of beating the crap out of us, especially at the Stadio Ferraris. Last year, Genoa were good, this year, they may be better. Due to our player [...]

Um…. I Guess I Should Write Something Already

Just because we are on an International break doesn’t mean that I can totally slack off. True, there is not a whole lot to talk about, but those of you who have been around here for a while know I rarely let that stop me. Oh, and the picture has nothing to do with anything, [...]
