saturday at 18:00 i'd like to see inter looooooooooosing

this time i'll support roma, core de sta cittą

and i want to see a great spectacular match

This could go either way, but i'll go with a 2-2 draw.

No please not another 2-2!

If we lose this one could be a disaster for Roma's ambitions.. hope it goes in the right way

2-2 wouldn't be a bad result against possibly the best team in the world last season. Inter smashed most Serie A records last season, and are defending champions, so surely a draw wouldn't be too bad?

Especially as Juve and Milan are now out of the title race in my opinion anyway.

I put some money on a Roma win. It's an accumulator bet though, so i don't really expect to win even if Roma kick Inter's ass.

I predict a 2-1 win for Roma.

Inter 1-0: Viera 69th minute with a blaster from 20 yards.

I predict a solid 2-0 Roma win.

The ever magnificent Totti to score once more.

Vieira is injured

how come we are out of the title race if we're only 1point below the leaders with still 33 games to play? :p

expecting another great match, as was Roma vs Juve, but Roma has somehow the formula to beat Inter, they've showing it in last confrontations, so ill go for a 2-1 to giallorossi. the draw is the best result for us though

Because Juve have lost Andrade for the rest of the season, and only have Legrottaglie to replace him. Buffon could also be out for a few weeks as well. I think Juve will concede too many goals to finish ahead of Inter overall. Inter are sensational, so to beat them will take something special.

Inter arent that especial. they conceded a draw to the one of the worst teams of the Serie A, Livorno, and arent the same team without Materazzi. They rely too much on Ibrahimovic and when he isnt in a gd day they have serious problems to score. Plus, this season they'll be more focused in CL, once their biggest rivals Milan won it again last year and shadowed their triumph in Serie A

They're very lucky though. were being totally dominated by Roma till Giuly put the hand in the ball and be stupidly sent off, and earning Inter a penalty. now i cant see Roma winning this game, but fear them a lot more than this Inter team

Inter don't rely on any one player. They have 4 arguably world class strikers. Four!!!! ? Suaza is settling in, and Adrano isn't fully fit, but if Ibrahimovic got injured, then they would soon fill in, and start to show their best form. And let's not forget Crespo. They guy is a Serie A legend.

You say Inter aren't that special, but they certainly were in Serie A last season. They smashed so many records, if they are even 80% as good as that this season, then i still think they have a good chance of winning it.

Well, Giuly has been red-carded and Inter won a penalty which Ibra converted.

It'll be hard for Roma to come back when they have to play with a man less for more than an hour.

EDIT: what a disaster for Roma

they make their comeback and manage to equalize, only for Inter to score 2 more goals in the following 6 minutes.

3-1 Inter with 30 minutes to go. I'd say this is over.

final score is 1-4. Of course Inter has their merits of the win but things would be differnt if Giuly wasnt so stupid. we all know ifs and buts dont play football, so congrats to Inter, but I still dont believe they will be champions. Inter were brilliant last season only cause they didnt have any rivals to compete for the title. All the punishments to Milan, Lazio and Fiorentina took some of their desire off, no matter what anyone says a team who starts a championship with less 8 pts will start it unmotivated to win. and Roma just didnt had enough strenght to keep Inter's pace, and this season they are already showing signs of weakness, after conceding us and Fiorentina the draw in the end and not being able to react against Inter today

...

Another stupid goal, again a lot of points lost.. the problem of the last season isn't over yet, we lose the focus some time and unfortunatly every time it's a goal for the opponents.

If we'll lose badly in Manchester too the situation will get worse and worse. Now it's time to win again and Manchester would be the best place to do it, even if I very much doubt we'll win there

B*llocks Gonzago. Milan had an 8 point deduction, which is nothing, as for years they have finished above Inter, and would've fully believe they could make up that point difference. If anything, it would've motivated them more. Many people still thought they would win it before the season. Even i thought they would.

People have made so many pathetic excuses to try and de-value what Inter achieved last season. It's pathetic, because there is no way Milan would've been able to even compete with Inter without that point deduction. Inter were just too strong, and record a record points total, and consecutive run of wins.Milan would never have got anywhere enar Inter's 97 points (which could've been even higher had they not taken their foot off the gas towards the end of the season).

This result is a nightmare for you. Not only because Inter are your biggest challengers for the league, but also because you have United next, and this scoreline will have a huge affect on you mentally.

we'll see, we'll see, 23th december is the derby day
last year milan would not win any thing, and, surprise, look what did happen! and against Liverpool too, so that victory means a double

Well they always had a chance in the CL, because Milan are a cup team. They don't have the youth, stamina or strength in depth to rotate there way to Serie A success, but they can achieve it in the CL. They have always been outstanding the CL, so they were always in with a chance.

As for the Derby games last season. Milan lost both to Inter, but those games can always go either way, and form going into them usually counts for nothing, so it;s hard to predict who will win the next one.

It was a great play by Inter.

I was actually surprised by Roma. I thought they'd at least put up a decent fight.

As for Milan... I haven't seen the match yet, but I am disapointed.

Don't you think they would have, had Giuly let the ball to go in instead of leaving his team with 10 players so early on?

Roma is big enought to handle game with a man less. They should not have been defeated by that much. They just lost all of their attacking prowess after Giuly. You never want to do that, even when a man down. You want to make your opponents you are still strong because if you show fear they will hurt you worse then when you don't.

Inter's second goal was part luck and part Crespo's brilliant positioning (as always). Even with 11 men Roma would have had trouble stopping that. And Cruz's shot should have been stopped by Doni or a defender. It wasn't that great a shot. Cordoba's goal was also a defensive error.

So, i think that if Roma had 11 men in the game their defence would still have trouble controlling Inter's forwards, but at least they'd be dangerous in attack too and that would stop Inter from commiting more men when going forward.

For Roma, the game was lost when Giuly decided to do what he did, despite the fact they were able to equalize shortly after.

It's great to see the kind of passion still coming through veteran players who've done and seen it all before.

Crespo is fantastic.

Giuly is an eejit!

the point is, if Roma were with 11 players, Inter would have the 1-0 lead but would sit on that small advantage and play in counter-attacks, as they were already doing even when it was 0-0. I believe Roma would be able to overcome that result and possibly grab a win, as they were playing much better.

with one man more, Mancini did a smart move (which doesnt happen very often) and pushed his team forward, playin Crespo and Cruz in. Perrotta's goal was absolute luck, it felt from the sky in a parachute right onto his lap
