Roberto Mancini's side still isn't perfect but as long as they're picking up points, it doesn't matter.

In its purest terms, "Catenaccio" simply does not exist anymore. Long gone are the days of Helenio Herrera and La Grande Inter of the 1960's; the "libero" role and the obsession with man-to-man marking are today almost seen as a dirty form of football, unfortunately (and perhaps too easily) labelled as "parking the bus." Perhaps this is why Roberto Mancini's side are being characterised as unappealing; even though they haven't adopted Karl Rappan's "verrou" style, they are still winning by keeping…

Mauro Icardi scored the winner for Inter Milan after the were reduced to 10 men.
Roberto Mancini has demanded 'more' from his Inter Milan players after their 1-0 win over Bologna on Tuesday.
Mauro Icardi scored the Nerazzurri's decisive goal in their trip to the Stadio Dall'Ara, but only after Inter were reduced to 10 men after midfielder Felipe Melo was sent off for a second bookable offense.
"I want much more, especially in the first half," Mancini said after the match.
"The second period was totally different. We were too slow and didn't create any spaces. Maybe we play better…

Mauro Icardi celebrates his strike.
Mauro Icardi ended his goal scoring drought to help Inter Milan move provisionally back to the top of the table on Tuesday following a 1-0 win at relegation-threatened Bologna.
It was Inter's first win in five matches and came despite playing the final half hour with 10 men after Felipe Melo was sent off following a somewhat harsh second booking.
Bologna defender Alex Ferrari should have dealt with a through ball from Marcelo Brozovic in the 67th minute but failed to make contact, allowing Adem…

The ESPN FC crew answer your Twitter questions regarding Jose Mourinho, Slaven Bilic's performance at West Ham, who will replace Sherwood at Aston Villa and more.

ESPN FC's Craig Burley discusses Chelsea's lack of discipline under manager Jose Mourinho and believes that the team brand is being damaged. Jose Mourinho's camp have already started making contingency plans in case he is sacked by Chelsea, sources say, with the manager's representatives investigating the possibility of moving to Paris Saint-Germain or returning to Internazionale.
Chelsea's 2-1 defeat at West Ham United on Saturday was their fifth in the Premier League this season, and that has led to the club's board tentatively discussing the idea of dismissing the Portuguese.
Although Mourinho has not been given an ultimatum and Chelsea…

Jonathan Biabiany is getting back to fitness but Inter's attack still needs a lot of work.

Palermo's Stadio Renzo Barbera has not been a happy hunting ground for Inter Milan in recent years. Their last win in Sicily was thanks to a brace from Samuel Eto'o back in September 2010; since then, Inter have drawn twice and lost twice on their travels. Roberto Mancini's men left there this weekend with yet another feeling of regret as they gave up a 1-0 lead to come away with only a point. The lack of goals in this team is evident and perhaps the answer lies with the lack of service or even…

Ivan Perisic got Inter off to a rocking start on Saturday, but they couldn't keep the lead.
Inter Milan missed the chance to temporarily go top of Serie A after being held to a 1-1 draw at Palermo.
Ivan Perisic opened the scoring for Roberto Mancini's side on the hour mark, but former AC Milan striker Alberto Gilardino equalised shortly after as Inter were frustrated for a third week running.
Having failed to beat Juventus last week, Inter went into the game on the back of three games without a win following an excellent start to the campaign, and were immediately on the back foot.
Gilardino…

From Daniele De Rossi's 37th league goal to AC Milan's first draw this season, here are five things you didn't know about the eighth week of Serie A football.

When Fiorentina returned to preseason training in July 2013, coach Vincenzo Montella answered a reporter's question. "How have I found Adem Ljajic? A little fatter," he mused. One month later he signed for Roma for €11 million, encapsulating the young Serbian in a nutshell. Ljajic is able to command a substantial fee for his talent but there seems to be something askew with his attitude. The Viola coach is not the first and he will not be the last to criticise the attacking midfielder, whose…
