It was expected that Mehdi Taremi would start in Inter-Venezia, instead Simone Inzaghi decided to rely again on the duo composed of Lautaro Martinez and Marcus Thuram. The Iranian will most likely get a chance from the start against Arsenal, but his performance combined with less playing time than expected already prompts some reflection, including that of Beppe Bergomi expressed yesterday during Sky Calcio Club:

We all expected more from Taremi. At the beginning of the retreat he was the protagonist, it’s true that they were just friendlies but you could see that he was the protagonist. But the others Lautaro and Thuram were not there. Now I have the feeling that he is not really into the mechanisms. He will play in the cup, as happened last year with the reserve forwards.
