Truely one of my favourite Inter goals.

Watching that again, I’m was thinking Jonathan, Rocchi & Alvarez really has to be one of the shittest assortment of Inter players…then I see Schelotto running in to celebrate.

WTF formation were we smoking? Some wide 4-4-2 with Alvarez up front and Schelotto on the wing?

Inter: Handanovic; Zanetti, Ranocchia, Samuel, Juan Jesus; Kuzmanovic, Kovacic, Jonathan, Schelotto; Alvarez, Rocchi

Roma: Stekelenburg; Torosidis, Marquinhos, Castan, Marquinho; Bradley, De Rossi, Florenzi; Lamela, Totti; Destro

No wonder we lost.

Funny episode. Schelotto, Alvarez were so incredible they almost make Dalhbert and J Mario look like clever signings. Oh wait.. no it doesn't. Should do one where Inter traded a guy and then became great episode.

Alvarez at least showed glimpses, but could never gather momentum due to injuries. There was a stint of 7-8 games where he looked genuinely good, but suffered yet another injury and never found his feet again.

I don’t think he would have ever achieved greatness or anything, but could have been a top player for a Genoa or Samp.

Whereas Dalbert and Schelotto always looked like they belonged in the North Cypriot League.

52nd episode is up. We're joined by @Bluenine, who talks about his time commentating EPL matches and his Inter fandom. We also dive deep into the Chiesa possibilities.

That was fun, guys!

And looks like I didn't butcher too many names, apart from referring to Marotta as Morata :oops:

Great episode, would love to have weighed in on the Chiesa convo which I find very interesting.

I agree with @Bluenine completely regarding position. I think he makes most sense as a RWB in this current Inter. However, there are so many layers to the potential transfer.

1) Is he willing to do it? It would take an extreme amount of sacrifice. Perisic did it but he was also in his 30s, a fitness freak, and coming off a CL win.

2) How much would he cost? Juve isn’t going to do Inter any favors and I’m not sure we have the budget to allocate towards a Chiesa. We still have Dumfries in the team about to get an increased salary. Apparently still want to sign Gudmunsson. And we also have an overload on the right side if we intend to play him there. Who goes away? Darmian? Bisseck? Dumfries?

3) We still need to allocate capital towards a LCB. Inzaghi doesn’t seem too keen to try Bisseck there despite him playing there at his last club. Maybe he would trust Darmian? I feel like if the budget is stretched to sign Chiesa you’re either giving up on support striker signing or LCB signing. Maybe even both.

Stars would have to align. But if you can sign Chiesa for cheap and he’s willing to play RWB you have to do it. It would immediately upgrade the biggest weakness in our starting team, which last season was RWB.

I'm probably too biased on this one. Whenever I watch Chiesa play I just see the class in him. I'm willing to give it a shot and hope the regression is because of Allegri. He still scored 9 goals last season. The most he ever scored at Fiorentina was 10.

Especially with the news of Arnautovic's injury, this just seems too easy.

I'm on the opposite side of this. Whenever I watch Chiesa play I just see a dumb fuck running and hustling HAHA.

But could still fit to our wingback role? 👀 Maybe at Inter he can be released from stubborn coaches and Inzaghi let's him cook more freely.

That's Dybala for me. And i will never forgive Beppe for passing on him for free for the sake of an expensive one year loan for Lukaku.
Yeah I'm team Dybala scoring 2 goals against City in the CL final after missing 30 games because of injury
