By Juventus: Inter now believe and scares – BBC

I say to Juventus in (hard) lifts: yesterday Inter is a real contender for the title. F inora it had been a half-hearted job, through a string of 1-0 and often tight to direct clashes failed if only on the level of the game. Now it is clear that Inter believe. It ‘clear that he found the conviction of their own means. The strength of the system , which enabled it to reach the top without an adequate amount of game, he added fluid movement, easy to score, cohesion between departments. Even the fans, or most of them, seems to have abandoned the traditional (although unmotivated) prudence. Therefore, throughout this amount of signs and values ​​Inter is now the most authoritative candidate for the title.

The objection is simple: the ‘Udinese current is not big deal. Wrong, the above considerations apply beyond the opponent. We are now at the end of year: the balance of this first part of the season says Inter’s Mancini can only improve, and so will be, when some star players now dormant (JoJo) will engage the right gear. With the 4-0 and Udinese goals from Icardi (twice), Jovetic – for the first time to sign with Maurito – Brozovic and Inter have kept pace by leaders, winning a great test. Character and strength, especially. But also in terms of maneuver.

Roberto Mancini also has a thousand solutions. With Udinese launched also Spanish Montoya beginning, making room to 4-2-3-1: in Icardi, Jovetic, Ljajic and Perisic. And alongside Melo Medel but Guarin. The turning point of the match came at the 23 ‘with the goal of returning to Icardi: Bruno Fernandes tries a back pass reckless, the Argentine stole the ball, jump and fly to Domizzi Karnezis closing the action with a diagonal. The victory was consolidated without too much trouble, from the beautiful spoon Jovetic, he also returned to scoring after three months (but still uneven).

The module becomes the break a 4-5-1 masked 4-3-3 with Perisic and Ljajic on the outside. Another proof of the tactical flexibility of Mancini and the possibilities that Inter has in his luggage. The 3-0 is the third gift Udinese with Lodi that sends Icardi deep: violent right and goals. It’s not over. Guarin Brozovic opens first to the left, the Croatian part and with a right to ride exceeds Karnezis.
