Antonio Conte

Are you insinuating we've never replaced "important" players before? We've never replaced multiple "important" players before in the same season?

We replaced Motta with Khraja and Eto'o with Forlan. Everybody knows where this path is leading.

5 years ago we had the second youngest squad in italy and we were unstoppable.

Not a fan of the majority of players we are linked in.

Kolarov - Sure, he's experienced but not a "winner" imo. He's been part of winning teams but that doesnt necessarily mean he will bring winning mentality. He also is a bad defender so I'm not sure it makes sense playing him as Bastoni's backup. He does bring passing and good set pieces though.

Paredes - pretty average player imo.

Vidal - I can somewhat understand as he is a winner. At the same time I wouldn't give up on a potentially world class young player to get a 33 year old Vidal.

Motta was still at the club when we signed Kharja. We replaced Motta with Angelo Palombo and an injured Guarin.

For as much as he pissed me off, I'll always love Fredo. Second favorite player of the banter era behind Yuto.

Conte meeting with management

With all the media reporting on Conte requesting older/experienced players, how reliable is that? I mean, it doesn’t look like Conte ever had carte blanche at Inter transfer dealings. I really can’t see his wishes undermining Zhang, Marotta (and to some extent) Ausilio. These are professionals with hundreds of millions of dollars on the line, not just fans on a forum discussing transfers.

Is it a ploy to distract media from our real targets?

Because what I have actually seen so far is that we signed Eriksen whom Conte at least tried fit into the system (and actually changed the formation for a few games after COVID) although it didn’t go as well, and Hakimi who by all accounts is an excellent addition; and not renewing Valero’s contract. You can say it’s all Marotta, but you can’t pin all media hysteria on Conte and and all positive moves on Marotta. In a large corporation like Inter, they each have a role to play, and hopefully try to complement each other.

Also it looks like everyone has their own version of what happened during the three and a half hour meeting between management and coach, whereas the only official statement from the club was that they all want to work closely for the mutual benefit of Inter.

I know we’re worried about what direction our beloved club is heading, but a little patience is needed to see where the pieces finally fall.

Everyone in the hierarchy wants Inter to win, including Conte, because for them that is the ultimate prize - this is why they do what they do. They know that scudetto and reaching knockout stage of CL are achievable objectives for this season.

LOL

The gift that keeps on0 giving.

Very dissatisfied with the current rumours. Not so long ago I felt the club was going in the right direction, but now my hope is vanishing.
Kolarov....Vidal.... over Tonali and Kumbaya ???

Fuck this piece of shit cunt.

His parents must have sucked at parenting. Probably gave this crying little shit all the toys he whined about.

He learned that at Juventus.

He gets to control a billionaire and an expereinced sporting director. I'd say kudos to his parents.

I don't mind getting Kolarov, since we don't really have a proper Bastoni back up.

And I won't believe we are just gunning for 32+ year olds until I see more transfers like that.

Fuck this fucking guy. I was very much hoping he'd stay after the meeting with the club but seeing the current transfer rumours and missing out on Tonali on PURPOSE is really depressing stuff.

Fuck conte, fuck Marotta, fuck lil Steven too.

We have given the reigns of the club to an idiot that just wants to win for himself.
He just wants to beat RuBe and get the fuck out. He doesn’t care about our future.

There’s not even agreements for the likes of Kante, SMS, Thiago or players of that level to just give up on Tonali.
There’s no plan anymore.

I was happy with the progress and wanted continuity but fuck this stubborn fuck.

Where is the plan? Maybe we are becoming button lipped?

Maybe our plan is to win with Kolarov, Vidal, Darmian and to rebuild the squad again in 1 season? It sure seems like it.
