No News is Good News?

There is not much news out of the Inter camp today and too many margaritas make for bad blogging.

The Italian press is skewering our performance on Sunday - and rightfully so. The Corriere dello Sport did not like our game at all.

The highest rating was for Julio Cesar (6.5) and Viera and Rivas bring up the back (both 4.5). They also called Rosetti on that missed penalty. He got 5.5.

Inter got another Golden Tapir.
We got the other one after we lost at home to Liverpool.

I suppose we could wallow in our terrible performance, but what is the use in that? Let us instead focus on our glorious victories to come.

The team trained today at the Centro Sportivo Angelo Moratti.

Some good news on that front is that Ivan Cordoba was running today for the first time since his injury. Also, Ibra is back in town training separately in the gym for now. I still think he may play a bit for Sienna - we will see.

Looking towards the Coppa Italia, Mancini has 6 Primavera players training with the first team: Vid Belec (gk), Ivan Fatic (d), Marco Filippini (d), Francesco Bolzoni (mf), Daniele Pedrelli (mf), and Luca Siligardi (f).

Wednesday they are off to Rome to see the Pope! Hopefully the audience is before the game - I dont know if Pope Mojo will help, but it cant hurt!

In the “Where are they now” file, Fat Ronnie is still suffering the fallout from his little “mistake”.

Il Fenomeno says that he is stupid but not gay; UNICEF dont want him; TIM have dropped him; and apparently there may some difficulties with Milan. It begs the question: Why cant these footballers just keep it in their pants?!?

Calciomercato

Not much here. Wenger is still whining about Inter pursing Hleb, and Maxwell’s agent wants more money or he will start talking to Arsenal, Chelsea, and Real Madrid.

Well, that’s about it.

Ciao Ragazzi
Forza Inter

    How did Maniche get a higher rating than Maicon?? Pay Maxwell his money. And while they are at it, give Maicon his money also. They are two excellent wing backs we are fortunate to have and need around for the future.

    Maniche got a higher rating than Maicon becuase of his marking assignment on Pirlo whcih he did rather well. Maicon didn’t really have one specific player to mark and didn’t really do much all game. Maniche was more effective defensively than Maicon.

    Let’s hope Il Papa gives Inter a much needed boost! Just one more Scudetto and I’ll be happy (just to prove we can win with Juve in Serie A).

    Maniche was more effective defensively and Maicon was more effective offensively. That’s not a good thing. The lineup that was out there was not well thought out in my opinion.

    We don’t need to prove anything. Not having Conigli Bianconeri in Serie A does not make what Inter did last season any less significant or this season any more significant. Inter was a much better & much more healthy squad last season. You never hear them bitch that Roma enjoyed inflated success because of what happened (or any other team). There will always be some sort of excuse if Inter does well. I hope, with some changes, we continue to dominate Serie A and make a serious run in Europe.

    I hated it Johnny, I absolutley hated it. I am still pretty bitter about the game. The weekend, more specifically Sunday, cannot come soon enough. What needs to happen, better happen!
