Rafa Watch

[wiw]

Stankovic hat-trick

[DannyMan2006]

Wow, how long gone?

[Drago]

AC & Juventus both drew last night so it's a much better week for them.

[wiw]

Must be pushing 80mins now. A win takes them 7 points off the top.

Looking at their form though, it's awful

Before today: DWDDLL

Couple of wins on the bounce they're right back in it, just as players will return

[Chris]

Commentator "you could make a case for Parma being 4-3 up here". Errrm ok!

[lickedlollipop]

no chance that Inter will win that league with Rafa

[wiw]

We shall see

[-V-]

Good result, thought they would mess up today without Etoo but they done well

[Shaggy]

Sneijder limped off injured at the end when they'd used all their subs.

[Arn]

They played much more like a team today instead of the usual one man show from Eto'o or Sneijder.

Rafa seems almost always to get his teams to play as a TEAM when he really need it with a lot of key players out injured. Cambiasso is the key to why they are now back winning again.

Arn did you watch it? Just curious as to how they lined up exactly and if Rafa has adapted his system because of the injuries. Sky had it as 442 but it looked more 433 from the players

4-3-3. Cambiasso as the more defensive midfielder but he played box to box. Stankovic now played in his best position as the most attacking midfielder.

To be fair, i want rafa to fail at inter, so we can take him back.

[Shaggy]

I obviously love the fella and think he's a top manager, but even I would have major reservations about him coming back. Not now anyway. We need someone of his calibre for sure and he ticks most of the boxes, but we don't need any more division, anymore in-fighting. Plus the fact there are still players here who fairly obviously wouldn't be happy about his return..........the whole thing would just be too messy. I think we need a clean start.

Although if a genie appeared tonight and offered me Hodgson out but only on the condition Rafa came back, I'd take it. Obviously.

You'll be watching him fail for nothing then I'm afraid. He isn't coming back.

Hope he goes to Athletico and breaks the big two again. Can't see him lasting more then the season at Inter and can see them winning nothing.
