    UEFA Champions League 2023/2024

    Atletico missed a couple of clear chances as well close to the 90 minute mark, one of them was Griezman if I remember well. Maybe our strikers are as wasteful as the other strikers in the top 8 of CL, bar the ones from City, Bayern, Real and PSG’s Mbappe. Unfortunately we can’t afford that...

    Inter - Rubin Kazan (20 Sep 12)

    First half was really bad. We improved in the second half and Guarin wasn't that bad. He actually intercepted some balls and had good presence. We were better with him on the field. He wasn't that good in passing forwards, you could see he had some good ideas but wasn't good in the...

    Inter Jerseys 2012/2013

    red is considered the lucky color for Chinese. The latter own part of the club currently and are supposed to be major contributors for building a new stadium. There could be a connection.

    Inter - Schalke (5 Apr 11)

    If they needed to cover a big distance, that distance shouldn't be there in the first place. You tell the players who covers what space when the teams needs to go forward so that you are not that susceptible to counter attacks. Crosses: Is there anything else than DEFENDING TRAINING that can...

    Inter - Schalke (5 Apr 11)

    our defense has been terrible under Leo. We were conceding from corners all the time in his first matches, remember? We were struggling to keep a clean sheet, we needed about 5-6 games until we got our first. Again, yesterday, loose defense in the corners, we were failing to clear all crosses...

    Rafael Benítez

    very good post. Indeed we don't know whether Zenga or Leonardo will do bad or good. In then end it's a matter of how much you believe in someone. If we, for discussion's shake, assume that we hire Ferguson or Hiddink, we would give them, I'm sure, more than 4-5 months of bad results to prove...

    Rafael Benítez

    How do we know that Benitez does not have the trust and respect of the players? Because of what we read in the press? As I said at the time we were thinking of firing Mancini, it always depends on the alternative. Firing Mancini looks good to me if the alternative is Mourinho. Firing Benitez...

    Rafael Benítez

    I think he did not have a good enough team to succeed. I don't think he is a bad coach. Plus it is only his first 4 months. You need time to impose your tactics and learn the team. In the meantime he only had youngsters to work with, too many injuries. Remember Van Gaal last year? Would you...

    Giuseppe Sculli

    If it's true that we have bought him, we may have done so to use him in a transfer of another player. Pay cash + Sculli, for another player, I mean.

    Wesley Sneijder

    no problem with that, saying that he may leave in the future is very normal, it would be a lie to say otherwise. Not lying is a sign of respect to my eyes.

    José "The Special One" Mourinho

    with all due respect, if he wants to leave, let it be. I am a big supporter of Mourinho but fed up with this drama. Anyone not feeling honoured to be at Inter can leave. We shouldn't beg anyone to stay. Someone said that Inter is being disrespected by this and I agree. Thank you and goodbeye...

    2010/2011 Manager rumours thread

    I like Felix Magath as a manager. Wherever he has worked he has succeeded, especially with smaller clubs. However we do not know whether he is suited for Italy, he has only coached in Germany. He is relatively young too (well 56). Good in bringing up new players. Of course the best choice is...

    José "The Special One" Mourinho

    I think Felix Magath is a good manager. I don't know whether he is suited for Serie A. But I definitely prefer Mourinho to stay.

    Barcelona - Inter (28 Apr 10) []

    It is a famous painting called "the scream" (by a Norwegian painter called Edvard Munch). You can now see the irony :smileani:

    Mario Balotelli

    He clearly doesn't like belonging to Inter. I don't think it makes much sense to try to keep him, why keep someone who is so unhappy here? For "business" reasons we may want to be diplomatic until we sell him, but I don't think we have much to gain (football-wise) by keeping such an unhappy...

    Barcelona - Inter (28 Apr 10) []

    isn't it that yellow cards will not count anymore for the final? I mean if you have a second yellow you still play the final, it's a new rule under Platini, isn't it? I'm not sure whether it has passed (and which season it would start being implemented, this or the next), or it was only a...

    2009/2010 Forwards rumours topic

    Because we have gone much further in CL this year, gives us some extra cash for transfers this summer. Good to keep in mind.

    José "The Special One" Mourinho

    Even if we win everything, it is still an unrepeated success to win the CL for a second time in a row. Mourinho can be motivated enough by this. He has only been here 2 years, it is not that much time for it to get boring. He may not do a Ferguson or HH, but he can stay for another year in order...

    Inter - Barcelona (20 Apr 10)

    Balotelli is a weird case. This kind of people can give their all and go beyond their usual behaviour, for the ONE game that is hugely important. If Mourinho asks him he may actually press and defend for this ONE game. He's not gonna do it regularly, but just for once, given that the whole world...

    Italian Serie A 2009/2010

    Having won serie A four times in a row gives us some tranquility. It will not be a catastrophe if we don't make it - not that we won't be mad about it, but it's not like it used to be. Imagine if we were in this situation 6-7 years ago. We would collapse out of pressure (as we certainly did...
