Mr Hankey Posted June 10, 2023 Report Share Posted June 10, 2023 If Inter can keep this pace going until around the 70th minue i can see them scraping a 1-0. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Open End Numb Legs Posted June 10, 2023 Report Share Posted June 10, 2023 Wonder if KdB was not 100% starting the game, the way that played out. Or maybe my bottle of Proper Job is misleading me. Should I be drinking cider? Apologies. Maybe my focus on the drink tells you this is quite a dull game so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petehinton Posted June 10, 2023 Report Share Posted June 10, 2023 I prefer these games so much more to goalfests too. Maybe that’s boring. Just two teams ridiculously well organised that’ll either get done by a goal they’ve practiced for a week straight or a wonderstrike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t get why fans and pundits constantly forget that we all love football because of how many shocks we see. Man City fans predicting 4-0 on the radio.

I mean, i have watched quite a bit of Inter this season on BT & it really shouldn’t be a contest…..even the semi againt AC was shit, but pressure & a final does wierd things, if this was a group game would fancy Man City to batter them by about 4 goals.

So so sad to see the glory hunting still exists, Utd in the 90s and now this. Of course it does. Was out earlier, saw a kid in a Man City shirt. Overheard a snippet of convo- sure wasn't a Manchester or similar accent. If anything globalisation or at least the commercialisation and reach of the modern game will make it worse. Certainly than say Liverpool 1970s, 1980s. Edited June 10, 2023 by Mr Popodopolous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cityexile Posted June 10, 2023 Report Share Posted June 10, 2023 Not much in it, City maybe just shading it but looks another tight final, maybe 1-0 either way. Inter will be thrilled the way it is going. City been ok but their crossing unusually poor in that half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. And yet there’s pundits/ex players who have covered or played in upwards of 10+ finals still talking about it like it isn’t a final.

Few years ago bow, Napoli much of the season have been superb to watch, way to display your knowledge of Italian football. Atalanta under Gasperini for a few years were excellent and that included taking it to opposition in Europe. Italy in Euro 2021 and the year or 2 before were very attack minded under Mancini. Fiorentjna in some ways but only some dominated vs West Ham. Not saying Italy is some fun free flowing League but more variety than you give credit for.

I agree, Man City v Napoli would have been an excellent final, really attacking and a lot of quality……you aren’t wrong, it is intriguing (albeit rather turgid)…..for what it’s worth i think Inter will win this. 3 minutes ago, petehinton said: Exactly.

Fair. Just think you painted Italian football a bit with too broad a brush. Think Inter while clearly not Man City have not been terrible technically. Can't really call this one.

Stones has been absolutely incredible. Grealish vs Dumfries is a game of whoever blinks first loses. Inter go from a 2 to a 5 up top in record speed.

This is similar circumstances to the Euro final. England had the better team but Italy had the mentality to beat them. If Inter can get a goal it will become really tough for Man City. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
