Antonio Cassano in the living room Long live El Futbol expressed his opinion on Inter and in general on the midfield of Simone Inzaghi’s team, in which Nicolò Barella plays, not exactly the former playmaker’s favorite player: “I start from the assumption that until the expulsion of the boy from I don’t remember Empoli’s name (Saba Goglichidze, ed.), I didn’t like Inter, they were in a panic. Then they opened the match and from there there was no match. I go crazy for people like Gavi, Frenkie de Jong, this is why I say that Frattesi must play and not Nicolò Barella, both for the national team and for Inter, because it is the pitch that says these things.”
Can’t they play together?
“But then you have to remove Mkhitaryan, without forgetting the other phenomenon that is Piotr Zielinski, who you will see when he is well…”.
What is Inzaghi’s vision?
“In his idea there is always the midfield with Hakan Calhanoglu, Barella and Henrikh Mkhitaryan, and in order not to put Barella in competition with Frattesi, who last year did better and is doing better this year, he tells Frattesi that he will be the 12th because he doesn’t break and stands straight. It’s a lack of respect towards the boy: the pitch speaks and says that Frattesi should play more than Barella. Because Barella is no longer the same as he was three years ago but he always plays while Frattesi doesn’t Is he ever taken into consideration in the matches that matter?”.
