There are victories that reveal clues that should not be overlooked and last night Inter returned to Milan with many things to review. Dwelling on mistakes even after winning the three points is the stuff of perfectionists and there is no other way to achieve success other than by continuing to insist on certain concepts. Also because there is a big difference between this year’s Inter and the one that won the second: the goals conceded and the general attention to the defensive phase. In these first six championship matches, the Nerazzurri have already collected the ball from the bottom of the bag 7 times while last year the haul was 3 goals conceded in 6 matches.
THE PROBLEM – It is very clear that something is not working and this becomes a big problem if among the competitors there are also those, like Juventus, who have conceded 0 goals in 6 games. Or Conte’s Napoli, which after some initial slips is finding its balance. While Inter, who already had one of their teams, seems to have lost it. Or perhaps even in this case the issue is mental. ALL VOTED FOR THE ATTACK – One might think that this is the case because the performers are the same as last year, but with a different attitude. The malice that Inter uses when they attack is far superior to that which they use when they have to defend, as if they now feel stronger. And in a certain sense Bisseck’s words in the press conference were surprising: “Honestly I think that last year was so good that I don’t think it’s correct to define it as if it were the norm”, this is how the German replied to those who asked him asked to account for the many goals conceded, as if to justify certain current lapses in concentration, which among other things also sees him as a protagonist.”
INZAGHI MIND – the Nerazzurri coach said he was happy but he isn’t happy at all, the Nerazzurri coach is the first to realize that certain things aren’t working, and then it’s all too clear to everyone how a good defensive phase is basis of all success. And instead Inter concedes too much, they do so through individual and departmental errors. While against teams that keep the level of attention high, Inzaghi’s men managed not to concede a goal: City and Atalanta are two excellent examples to take into consideration, because when Inter respects their opponent they come together. On the contrary, however, it stretches out, flows forward and does not fall back with the same enthusiasm. But football is a question of balance, including mental ones.
