You know you got truly spanked when your goalkeeper was your teams best performer but you still lose 3-0.

Nobody is panicking. We're just commenting on our tour and the truth is that it's been shit.
Most of the posts here show panic like these games are indication for this season. Again, with Mazzarri our preseason was much better and it ended with worst Inter ive seen.

we get another confirmation that kova and kondogbia would combine nicely.

that's a positive!

Hopefully Miranda, Vidic, Melo and Jovetic make a big difference to this team.

Okay, this tour was a complete failure in EVERY SINGLE ASPECT.

Zero goals, 3 pathetic performances and well, from the marketing point of view, I can bet we failed there too. Sort your shit out fashionista mop-head, less dai dai and more tactics.

That is not how marketing works. Its a slow and steady process, a friendly won or loss is almost irrelevant.

Yeah, the football was poor but that is expected so early in the summer. But this tour was a good thing for the Inter brand irrespective of football. Do you really think Thohir planned this trip imagining that we will thrash Real Madrid and Bayern Munich to help with marketing purposes? No. If we had gone to China and beat Chievo 5-0, that would have helped much less than losing 3-0 to Madrid. Its about brand association.

This was to stay relevant in China, where we have a big following even now. This is for our fans to get a chance to see Inter, get a few autographs, and see our club still being associated with super clubs like Real & Bayern. That is marketing. No one cares about the results of a few friendlies - it helps if your team plays great football, but we all know we are not there yet. It is more important to be there, and from that point of view we have achieved most of our objectives for this tour, including the financial ones.

The real marketing of our brand will only start once we qualify for the CL. Early indications suggest that Thohir understands the brand building exercise far better than Moratti ever did. Lets wait and see.

tell me, what is your indication in order to be optimist for the coming season?? if you dont have any then logically you cant criticize people who analyse our game base on the current situation. people keep saying it's merely pre-season but only by counting on vacant conviction that we might be better. what the fuck. why dont you just say we're going to win scudetto and coppa italia?! :yao:

A football team biggest asset is their football, their players and all that stuff.

I don't know how asian fans think, but apparently we have a loyal fanbase there and I SUPPOSE we went to China to gain some fans, but in order to do that, you gotta play some good football. Not "it helps" if we play good football, WE MUST play good football. I bet if you ask some chinese fans who don't know a shit apart from Real Madrid and Barcelona who's Inter, they probably don't know or think we're shit.

Mancini: we are improving and we have lots of new players and Madrid, Milan and Bayern are different level and climete was hot and I dont have a clue how to make my players to move right???

We sure do look dangerous when we get the ball and start to attack and very solid when we lose the ball and try to defend :awwyeah:

I really tried to find that improvement, but its hidden so good that I didnt find it??

But then again nobody can judge these friendly games cause they arent a real games and they dont eaven play with a ball...

Hope Miranda, Jovetic and Melo will make a difference?? Sad to see that Mancini dont rate Shaqiri at all and love Palacio/Hernanes so much :cry:

Normally I blow off the pre-season but this has been really bad. I mean, we can't even get a goal. Hell, we had problems just creating decent chances. This is why we should have given Milan our all and not our half assed primavera and b squad. They were the only team we could have actually looked decent against.

Just for perspective, didn't Juventus lose to L.A. Galaxy last summer?

I have no problem with losing 3-0 to Real Madrid.
From what I did read we didn't do that bad.

you think Palacio can handle RM , BM defense with icardi,,,
and only with support hernanes..
you so naive if we can do that..

our 3 midfield ,, kondo-gnou-kova is solid..
more i look gnou,, more i look him like busquet (positioning,simple pass, foul/tackle)..

but our attack relying to Longo,Icardi(Good finishing not creative and pace) and old palacio?
or flank relying on Juan and Di Marco...
only montoya decent,,
we must get Fullback ,, faster than Robben, Ronaldo , Bale ,, like Clichy ,,Jose Gaya, Felipe Luis,,,
Other than that we raped ,, like raped by Jese..

my opinion we should play Handa ,Gnou, Murillo , Montoya, Kova , And Kondo ,, they are consistent play good at this 3 preseason match..
Get someone nice pace like aubameyang , Jese or someone faster..
Faster than Alaba, Alves , Carvajal , Marcelo , or any good fullback ,,and can crossing and creative..
other than that , we suck :okay:
my mind dizzy when the ball always stuck in final third or opponent outside area..
:chan: :yuno:
