Two games later

We are two games into the season and have two losses so far.

Palermo 4 x 3 Inter (Serie A - Week 2)

Goals with lots of goals as expected with Gasperini's 343. Miccoli played brilliantly.

But look who's sad now
 Pros:
- Milito is getting back to shape
- Nagatomo, Obi and specially Jonathan showed some impressive and fast plays on the wings
- Forlan scored his first goal
- Zanetti can be quite solid on defence

Cons:
- Three man defence with 100+ years which made me worry with any counter-attack (how can one team always be outnumbered in defense?)
- Zarate did close to nothing
- Gasperini not using Sneijder as a starter
- Three lost points



Inter 0 x 1 Trabzonspor (Champions League - Group Stage)

I did not watch this as I was at work, but the results scared me. This was the easiest game we will get in the Champions League and we lost it. At home. According to the comments on sites and forums it seemed to be more bad luck than lack of quality, but regardless... we should not lose to Transilvania.


Wait, did I mistype anything?

Pros: Gasperini using 4 men defense!
Cons: We f* lost.



Next match: Inter x Roma (Serie A - Week 3)

After the worst start since 1921/22 with five lost games (see, Inter's writing history!), Gasperini is under a lot of pressure. If we see the 4 men defense again, we should prevail.

Forza Inter!
