we would say the same if it was juve players on our players spot.
not that I agree with it – in the end Spalletti is the reason for the performance after going wrong in so many aspects on his team selection and overall formation.
outside of donnarumma there wasn’t 1 player that you can say had a great tournament.

I’m french and when we (also) lost to switzerland last euros, Varane said “We win together but we also lose together”. This italian team isn’t an inter team, its an italian team first. I would say that tactically there was some clear error and honestly its a bit digusting for a coach to blame inter players right after the loss, have some hair on your chest, take responsibility. Same with the fans, its a weak mentality.

It’s a predictable reaction tbh (in the meantime they exalt euro2021 and forget about 2008, or 2010, 2012, 2014, and so on) This expedition was doomed right from the start if you consider that in the entire history of the European championship only Spain’s golden generation has done the back to back, add to this spalletti’s (lower case intentional) moronic choices like Darmian on the left, Di Lorenzo permanent starter, Chiesa on the wrong side… Throwing inter player under the bus is specious, the problem here is not nerazzurro, bianconero, viola, or whatever, the problem is Azzurro. They are all to blame, more or less everyone played badly or below level except perhaps Donnarumma.

I think there’s been a lack of a goal scorer for a long time, also di Lorenzo had a howler of a tournament for me, but it’s up top where Italy really come up short

Spalletti is trash and needs to be taken out to the curb

Here’s the reality: These hobbies are just bitter losers…
This is nothing but semantic garbage to make them feel better about how dominant Inter was over them and the rest of the league.
What contribution did any Italian player on Juve have on the national team. The answer is NOTHING. If it wasn’t for our players, the national team would not even have made it into the round of 16.
Spaletti is a clueless fraud, and it thats the end of it.

It’s ridiculous. I’m Italian-American and like both the U.S. and Italian national teams. I don’t blame Juventus and Milan (McKennie, Weah, Pulisic) for the U.S. losing to Panama, and I certainly don’t blame Juve and Inter when the Italians lost against Switzerland.
Tactically these teams are different. With Dima in against Switzerland, I think Italy press more. Spalletti’s system is absolutely flawed. Italy played defensive possession football and never looked like they wanted to score a goal. For that, it’s a managerial failure. Heavy rotation, possession football with no teeth in the attack. Spalletti thought he could simply dominate by sitting back.
