Mehdi Taremi @ Inter Milan Season 2024/2025

[BacheLot]

The more I watch Inter, the more I feel that Taremi has his work cut out. Yes, they make chances but how many of them are deadly? Odd Martinez magic at one end and a world class save by Somner at the other. The rest are diagonal passes in midfield, shots into Row Z and Khaleh-Kherseh with keeper and the back 3. Rarely do you see what I call a clever pass -one that carves the midfield, fools the opposition and ends up in an 18-6 yard box?

I can only imagine this system is based on Inzaghi instructions and no one can express themselves out of his norm and instructions.

true, it's a Game Tactic largely focused on Keeping Possession,(thus requiring much work rate and movement W/O the ball from players in order to make passing triangles for it to work all over the pitch) then off course defending in large numbers as a team when outa possession ..!
Inter also gives Building it from the back a whole new meaning (i mean literally ... when they face congestions up front they dont hesitate to take it all the way back to Keeper, and doing so very frequently during games..!! )
essentially forcing their opponents into risk pouring large numbers into their half of the pitch to stop them, thus leaving them susceptible to counters for goals..!!

Damn Dumb-fries is on fire 🔥 .... dude scoring left n right in all sorts of ways..!! lets hope Inza dont adapt him to Striker position ...!! nevermind his goal denied by VAR due to offside in build up

Tmart scored a brilliant goal in first half , but also has pissed away some 3 1v1 great chances so far in 2nd
Marcus just missed an absolute sitter , similar to that he provided for Mehdi the other game..!!

let see if our boo boys start taking the pisss on them for once and give our boy a rest on that front

Agreed. It begs the question why play with two strikers? In such a system it is better to play with one holding striker with the two attacking midfielders pouring forward catching the opposition on the counter.

one of the strikers often seems to be just a striker in name in this system....! ?
one is assigned with much more defensive and build up play participation duties than the other..!! its usually Mehdi when partnered with either marcus or tmart ....! and Lauti when he is partnered with marcus..!

[BacheLot]

Mehdi coming in for Lauti min 81

[KasraKhan]

Mehdi on in the 82nd minute.

[FeLFeL]

Here comes Mehdi for Lautaro 80th minute

[KasraKhan]

Nice pass by Mehdi to Thuram in the box, but Thuram can't get the shot off.

[BacheLot]

good dummy and set up to thuram from mehdi
defense cleared

[BacheLot]

Spa seems to be satisfied with losing 1-0 hardly pushing for the equalizer... hence not many chances on counter for Inter and our our boy ..!:/

ft 1-0
big win, inter very likely qualify to top 8 and on to next stage..!!

Thuram missed a sitter (much like Taremi's recently). It happens to the best.

They were given clear instructions to run out the clock in the last 10 minutes. There was no opportunity for Mehdi to do anything noteworthy

I wonder if the Frenchies are ripping Thuram on their forums the way some of you rip Taremi after he missed a "sitter"...And BTW, there are NO sitters in football. It happens to ALL OF US.

Iranians are often their own worst critics/enemies. We love to tear each other down. And it's passed down from generation to generation by our own parents/aunts/uncles/etc.

On this forum specifically a lot of the older members hate him I noticed because he doesn't have "gheyrat" and because of Portugal/Qatar games. Iranians in general are constantly comparing him to past players like Mahdavikia, Hashemnejad, Karimi, or some other legionnaire. Instead of appreciating that we have a player in a top 5 clubs in the world, they are constantly stuck in the past. The amount of times I've seen discussions downplaying his career and comparing it to a past player is crazy.

He has a bad stretch of a season and he gets jumped and disowned like he committed war crimes

I don't know who is more annoying Asian moms who compare your accomplishments to your cousins or Iranians who constantly circlejerk history 😭🤣
