If we manage to get through January without Zaza, Pinamonti, aquafresca then I would consider it a success.

Overanalyzing Pinamonti is not "fair". His potential was always obvious. And we all know what Conte does to that said potential.

Also, he comes without pressure at all. Several subs here and there. Can cover multiple positions.

Also he is white and Italian.

LETS GO CHAMP!!!

I am not really surprised about the rumour for Pinamonti. There were multiple reports last summer Conte wanted to see Pinamonti in the preseason before deciding his fate. Of course this never happened because we needed to sell him to meet capital gains requirements but it doesn't change the fact Conte actually rates Pinamonti.

This is not about what Pina might be some day, what is his potential or anything like that. Now it's about what he can deliver to Inter right now in the next 6 months. That what is required from a player we desperately need right now in my opinion. 20 year old kid is not that but still better than nothing.

This mercato was actually pretty good, almost excellent but failing to get that striker sub is a massive fuckup and puts a big minus to the mercato. Period.

The latest rumour about pinamonti is that preziosi (genoa's president) was willing to let him go because he thought he was getting Iturbe, but this deal fell through, so preziosi changed idea.

It sucks, but we can do nothing I guess... There were multiple teams going after Giroud, no one got him. Tottenham has not any striker.
Just bring in Pinamonti, we still need someone to rotate having 2 difficult matches per week.
We do not need to win Europa league, but it would be fine to have someone to rotate there.

Sky says we might be interested :yao2:

Nah. He's going to Parma.

Not about Inter but it's worth posting.

Sky Italia: "Antonee Robinson was in Milano today, he had medicals with AC Milan but... problems for his contract and the deal is now OFF. He’s coming back to Wigan".

:lol:

Genoa’s president needs to be taught a lesson not mess with Inter.

We had the WHOLE month to deal with this striker thing. Chelsea weren't selling at the 1st of January and they are not selling today. Maybe a plan B would have been a feasible idea earlier than week before the deadline?

Now Esposito and Sanchez will have a lot of minutes.

Good. Better not getting anyone than getting the likes of Llorente, Giroud or any other borderline retired striker on relatively large wages.

Sanchez, Lukaku, Lautaro and Esposito should suffice. It's about time Sanchez rehabilitates himself and Esposito proves he can be a bit more useful than he already was.

Don't have one.
Sky Italia: Inter, mercato chiuso

I will fondly remember this statement next time Sanchez stops running in twentieth minute and esposito shows us once again that he is not ready...
