Speaker 1 (00:01):
Into two Olympia, the last pre season friendly before Welcome
back on the channel. Guys, let's get into this much
reaction of the last friendly of this preseason, the fourth
friendly and in to finish this preseason unbeaten. Doesn't matter
even if they lost every single game, but I guess
it's a positive. And today to nil, so we didn't
(00:24):
concede first, which've been doing a lot with KIEVU. Oh,
we actually didn't concede that all today, so that is
definitely a good result in the end, the result wrapped
up by DeMarco who stole the goal from Denzel Dumfries
and Marcus Tarram both goals in each half and overall,
(00:45):
very solid performance in my opinion, maybe the least exciting
game or performance. I didn't get to really watch the
Monocle game properly, but you guys, let me know. I
thought it was like in terms of the whole game.
You know, the pitch was water log so the conditions
weren't ideal the Sonny Coola Inbari, but the fans it
(01:06):
felt like it was a home game, so shouts out
to the fans out there. Friend of the Channel, Nikobo
Kutti was out there saw and yeah, the atmosphere felt
like it was a you know, a mini San Siro,
so credit to them, but yeah, the pitch was a
bit of water logged. We know this Olympia archosteam it
a reit feisty, a little bit feisty. We saw some
(01:26):
of the videos. If you saw the Napoli game, the
previous friendly they played, Antonio kN literally stepped onto the
pitch because he was so pissed off one of the
tackles that one of the guys made on one of
the Napoly players, I think it was Rahamani and Contage
was like fuming. I was like, guys is friendly. And
we saw some of that spill over today with Barella
(01:47):
and Bruno, one of their players, the left back, Nigerian
left back, and then Lotaro tried to you know, get
you know, we always trust to get in on the
action and don freeze as well with him, and then
that Bruno guy was boot the whole game. But yeah,
because of the pitch, the temple was really low, really slow,
so it wasn't definitely not an enjoyable game, but as
(02:09):
I said, very very solid by inter we barely didn't
give anything away. I think I'm sure like that it
wouldn't show the the XG right if I go on
the stats here, But yeah, I mean Olympias had seven shots,
but I actually don't even remember them, and he says,
you can see here there are four big chances, zero
big chances for Olympia costs and I don't think Zoma
(02:34):
actually had a did you even have a save? To
me get one save? I don't even remember which one
that was, to be honest, must have been a shot
from distance to very very comfortable. And you know why
because today Kievu inter decided not to press high no
high line, no stupid high press, which again, if he
wants to test experiment, that is preseason is the time
(02:57):
to do that. But I think today, the game before Saraha,
I think this shows that Kivu probably has to rethink
some of his ideas because he hasn't been given the players.
That's what we keep talking about. This transfer window. I
mean mccorney video expired literally like did it last even
twenty four hours? Maybe like twenty hours. It lasted the
(03:18):
corne hype but that was killed. But this transfer window
is not really giving anything new and different to Kivu
to play with so realistically, I think we know, guys,
the starting lineup at the first game of the season
is going to be exactly the same as last year,
whether you like it or not. A Chairbee and the
Riot will be center center backs. The only places where
(03:41):
I can see something happening are this right center back position.
As we said, is pavar or be sick. But aside
from that, just put your soul to rest. This is
going to be into his back line and pretty much
the inter team going into the Torino game. Going to
the Torino game, though, there is one question mark. If
you don't know, Hakan Chlu is suspended for the Torino game.
(04:04):
So the first game of the season, who is going
to play CDM today? Petar SUCHI played there and I
don't think he looked comfortable there. I think that's a
role he can play maybe in the future, maybe slowly,
you know, if we need him to play that role,
if we see the potential in that role, he could
play it. But right now I could tell he was
(04:26):
not very comfortable there in terms of movements, in terms
of receiving the ball. He is definitely more of a
me in this intersystem in the three five too, he's
definitely a Medzala in a double pivot. I think he
could play that because he plays that for He played
that for Dina Mazagreb, and he plays that for Croatia
a slightly different role as this deep lying playmaker Regista.
(04:47):
He didn't look very comfortable both on and off the ball,
and he's kind of wasted. He know, in terms of
his that ball carrying those long legs that he's got
to bring the ball forward, and you know in general
how he attacks space and he's passing. You know, the
first goal actually came from one of his line breaking passes.
So yeah, I don't think this is the position for him,
But in the first game against to Reno, you guys,
(05:09):
let me know, it might have to be him or
as usual, I think it's Barella. Do you guys know,
if you follow this channel, for many many years, Barrella
was the CDM on the Cornte, the backup CDM to
Brosovich back then, and I think even since Aslani has
been there, even when Zelenski plays there, I've always said again, similarly,
(05:30):
you could make a signal point like he's wasted there
is not his best position. But I think we're actually
most safe to play Barella as the CDM. The reduced
there because at one point in the second half they
saw pros Suchich went right since the mid, Barrella went
deep line playmaker, and I think Barrella is just a
lot more comfortable in there than Suchi. And then I thought,
(05:52):
in terms of Spisteo staying on that role, I thought
Aslani wasn't going to get any minutes, but he did
right at the end, which I think now you know,
tremis out of the squad, so that's very clear. You know,
he didn't even part taking this preseason Aslani, even though
I was really announced. He's not part of the plans.
He's on sale, he's he's available, on loane whatever. He's
(06:13):
still pretty much started every single game this preseason, right
and today he even got minutes when I thought he wasn't.
But if he is not going to play against Rena,
which I don't think he should really if he's on
the way out, ken Zielenski played that role. And again,
you guys, if you followed me, you know, you guys
know my thoughts on Zelensky as a CDM. As soon
as he came on. First thing he did was complete
(06:36):
you know, lack of awareness in his own box. Probably
in a proper game, it would have been a VR
penalty because I think he did trip up the player
because he just completely lost you know, his awareness there.
I just don't like Zelensky in that role. Ball playing wise,
you know, different to Suitures. Ball playing wise, He's actually
(06:56):
seems to be completely fine, but there's just you know,
defensively and there's awareness. It just doesn't have it doesn't
have it. I think it's going to be if nothing
moves on the Islani front. It looks like it's another
season where we're heavily relyant on hak Kan and heavily
relyant on him not getting injured. How can actually came
on as playing as a mezzala as well? It was
a weird midfield at the end. It was like Aslani
(07:19):
registera Hakkan and Zelinski and Menzala and then there was
at one point Hawkan is a Metzala with SUCHI like,
it was really weird. Yeah, weird midfield. But obviously in
preseason things like that happened. But you guys, I mean
know who should start against the Reno match day one
because we only got a few you know, one week,
just over a week left to that, So that's that.
(07:40):
Other talking points. The Marco got his goal, as we said,
stole it off. Dumfries lovely played the whole play by
entering that one was actually really nice. Let me see
for into extra have posted the video for that goal. Yeah,
here is the line breaking pass first from such into
Tam Taram. By the way, today much much better. He
looked fitter, he looked you know, more sharp. His hold
(08:04):
up play was pretty much seventy eighty percent of the time.
On point got his goal as well. That is the
Marcus Trump we know from the first half of last season.
Tram Wait sweets again. Lotaro is offside VR in a
real match would have called the goll off, but you know,
in general, it's just about the play from him. That
was still really nice. Altaro squares it too Dumfries, but
(08:27):
Themarco comes in for the tap in and then DeMarco
unfortunately goes off with an injury in the twenty ninth minute.
Hopefully is nothing serious according to the reports, as just
you know, he was just feeling something in his right eye,
not something muscular, more like a hit hopefully, so hopefully
he's not effective for the start of the season. He
(08:47):
didn't look that good either. As usual. DeMarco he really
needs to pick things up, but of course I don't
want him to get injured and be missing out. Luis
Enrique came on for de Marco, didn't look that great.
To be honest, I was interested in seeing it on
the left end side because he probably does like it
more able to cut in on his right foor By.
He was kind of confusionary today. Luis en riqueid he
(09:09):
always tried to do something, but you can tell he's
kind of forcing it at the moment. Luis and Riquet
was something so he just needs to, you know, slowly
relax himself into the role first, not stress over stressed
too much. And then the second goal, let's go up
to that. That was a nice goal. On the counter
(09:29):
attack to Ram running into space. Dumfries shoots rebounds into Tram,
who taps it in and he was kind of complaining
to Mekuitarian about something. He didn't really celebrate the goal properly.
But overall, as I said, good performance from Dram. Deserved
goal was also quite good in terms of build up
play and the link up play definitely should have done
(09:52):
better on some of the shots. Maybe should have got
at least a shot on target. One of them he
got completely off target. Speaking of poor shooting, Oh my god,
Andrew and Bonima and this boy, he really needs to
you know, if some of these shots happened at the
San Siro. We We've said it many times when Nautovich
(10:12):
corre these guys, you know, experienced guys, they're earning their money.
They don't really care. Kind of correct, kind of we
could tell he really cared. It got him down. But
you know, Andrew and Bonnie a youngster, he needs to
be careful some of these real wild mishits and slices
that he's doing, like completely miss it in the ball,
like not even like slightly off target. One of the
balls span so much that it came back onto the pitch. Yeah,
(10:37):
he needs to just keep shooting in training because the
potential is there. Everything else with Boni is like so good,
just the shooting, and it's so funny we're talking about
a striker. The shooting just isn't there whereas it's Posito.
As soon as he comes on, he is just a beast.
Like every action a spositor does somehow ends up either
(10:58):
him winning the duel. Even if he doesn't win it,
it's always a headache for the defender. If he's getting
a shot off, it's like somehow ends up on target,
like he's just got the snack this hunger. Yeah, like Tramltaro,
they need to watch out for PR's positive with the
hunger that he's coming in. It's so good to see
who else who else B said had a good impact
(11:20):
first came back from his injury, similar to the Linsky.
I have to give that to z Linski as well.
It was his literal first appearance of the preseason, so
we have to give him that and be sick as well.
Look good when he came on. Cherby was good, Poward
was good, but Stoni was good. Mickey up and down
as usual, some good, some bad, and on you know, Olympiakos,
(11:43):
there was It was good to see Pierola coming on.
Former inter youth product. Apparently he's doing very well out there.
He's even been linked within so that's how good he's doing.
So let's keep an eye how he does and maybe
also for the Italian national team. But yeah, that is
my reaction to Interestuno win against Olympiacos. You guys, let
(12:05):
me know your thoughts on this final friendly just over
a week guys till the to Reno game. Are you excited?
Are you not excited? I know the transfer window bee Ausilio.
They need to really give us something special and exciting
before the start of the season or before the trans
the window. Apparently there's the ticket sales or the renewals
(12:31):
for the season tickets on looking too good again, transfer window?
We need something, but I'm expecting are sold out for
that to Reno game, at least for the first home
game of the season. And yeah, and coming days. Keep
a look out on the channel. Who will stay up
today with all the news we need to talk about.
Mota is a shareholder in Inter Now that's a big
news that I need to cover. But keep a look
(12:51):
out on the channel chart. Thanks for tuning in for
