Too bad the money wasn’t there in the summer for Barca.

We could talk, in the region of 150mil to 200mil, the amount they would pay for an aging Neymar.

I think a fit Sanchez is simply a better option for this team. Lautaro is talented but this dude cannot finish at all. He makes Lukaku look like prime Van Basten. Sanchez has better vision and passing which this team badly needs. It’s time to offload LM in the summer and let him go somewhere that he can be the actual primary striker because as long as he’s playing SS it’s limiting him and the team.

I would sell both him and Lukaku in the summer for 70-80m each and get Messi and another forward. Sell before the player has any real value and not go Interesque yet again by keeping a player so long that his price go low and his suitors no longer interested as well.

I doubt there's a big club interested bringing Lukaku

I agree with selling them both... but buying a burnout walking Messi? Fuck no.

Regarding the selling part, I would absolutely sell Lautaro while he still has *some* perceived value. It's a much better option than having him as a rotational striker. At this point it's clear that he won't develop the finishing instinct and he is simply not good enough. Tough luck, but it is what it is.
Lukaku is a lot trickier. If some major club comes flaunting around at least 90m I would take it and run. There are 3 or 4 of those clubs in the world so the chance is low but if it happens.. we better go for it.
I wouldn't mind him staying under the condition that our manager is someone who realizes that he isn't a big match player and that he should not start big matches. Simple as.

I don't give a fuck about statistics, about goals scored. You can statpad Spezias and Torinos all you want but what good are you if you aren't coming through in big matches. Not once, not twice, but routinely not coming through in big matches.

Seriously can not understand how he gets criticized for yesterday. The only thing he did wrong was "trying too hard" when shooting. His failure in being more influental was a result of tactical rather than individual errors. Shakhtar neutralised him and Rom as they defended perfectly.

Our super coach need to bench him for more then one game, he just not looking good, need to understand that if he shit, he just be benched, also in my opinion lukaku with alexis are just looking better..

Yes. Gazzetta gave him the best rating out of Inter players.

His scoring chances were not AAA level chances, more like chances he managed to force himself with is good movement.

Toro was definitely not shit.

I dont say he was the only shit, all the the team was shit ,maybe more then him , but he had 2 more chances that one of them was so fucking bad kick when he was totally free and blast the ball to nowhere... when you get this chances in games like this, you must take this and bury the ball in the damn net, and I appreciate that he works hard on the field but its worth ass when he cant finish his chances and the team lose eventually , his job is score, not only work hard and get our sympathy and keep to miss ..

Do we have a special trainer for our strikers? I know Ajax had Bergkamp and Feyenoord now has Van Persie to train the strikers in the youth and the first team. Lautaro is very restless when it comes to finishing. I'm not saying he had 100% chances but a few had to go on target. I think someone like Vieri, Milito, Eto'o could teach and learn Lautaro so much. I know they have other things to do now but it's more like a example. I don't think any trainer in the staff right now can teach our strikers anything. Yes they can tell them how they need to hit the ball or how to use the space etc but coming from an ex-player or legend it would make more sense than someone who read it in a book.

Its seems to me that all the players need to take some train at kicks, our players kicks too much out of target when they have a really good chances..

It's not like he needs training to learn how to finish chances. He's very capable of that.

It's a mentality/composure issue. He's far too eager. It's as if he's chasing something all the time, he's uneasy and all that. Even coming off the bench in his first season he wasn't like this and it wasn't because he wasn't arrogant enough, he's always been quite cocky with the ball.
Been saying this for a year it s a mentality problem.....
Only thing i have to add is that it usually gets better if he s on a streak...
But he does seem desperate for a goal way to often and it gets in his way

There is no buying Messi, he'll be free in the summer. Only his salary is a challenge which wont be a problem if the club get rid of the deadwoods. He's not burnout. The disasterous season Barca has is down to many factors. Messi still has at least two more good seasons in him in top tier football imo and Inter will dig gold by getting Messi. I am against signing aged washed up players but we are talking about Messi here and he still has it in him. It's an once in a life time chance to get a player like Messi and the club should not waste this chance. By selling Lukako and Lautaro while they still have a good value and getting rid of many other players and Conte ofc Inter can make a solid team capable of winning the Scudetto and get far in the CL.

Martinez is a very poor finisher, worst conversion rate in CL, speaks to his performances

Love his work rate, but he tends to leave his shooting boots in his locker way to often.

Toro would score 25 goals per year if we ran every offensive opportunity through him like we do lukaku. Half the size and twice the intensity.

Lui, no.


Lautaro for all the hype in the world has been shit. I don't think he is someone who you can build a team around. Lukaku is much better for us so far and also (imo) much better striker than Lautaro.

Facts! If we get 90 million I don’t mind selling him. He can barely dribble past defenders.

If Conte is doing a bad job, and this season I believe he is, than Lautaro's curent playing level is not real.

If Eriksen was playing the same way Lautoro is atm Conte would have benched him.
