And still there are posters on here that speak poorly of him and express the opinion that he should be sold if an acceptable offer comes in because he is not prolific.

Martinez is our best player. I have nothing but respect and admiration for him in the way that he plays, leads, and his loyalty to the club.
Well, about lead and loyalty, I was so wrong on Icardi and Skriniar and not dare to lift my expectation again. Only Handanovic saved me some trust.

Handa had other offers? When? What club did he say no to?

I really don't know.

^ I think he's talking banter era. Handanovic had different offers back then but chose to stay here
@PHM1605 Icardi didn't want to leave, he got kicked out lol

What a great captain.

🎙️ Lautaro: “If I think back to the failed goal in Istanbul? But no, because I'm fine with myself. In that second I decided so and it's okay. But it's not the only opportunity we had that evening, I carry with me in my head the good things we did”. @Gazzetta_it

Such a great mentality.

Calling out Lukaku is the icing on the cake while obviously he just answered the question.

I mean I am not trusting anyone's words ever again. The two former captains whom talked much about love for Inter turning out to be bunch of bullshit; both "former" category now. On the other hand, the one who talked the least almost retired in the Inter jersey and instantly in the "legend" section.

I still remember the days Icardi was the one picking Lautaro up at the airport and people praising him as "captain material" based on that action alone. Not enough.

Dont get me wrong, I am not against Lautaro with armband now and happy for him. But this responsibilty is still new and time will tell whether he could follow Zanetti or Handanovic footsteps or not ;)

Standards are so low here...The ability to pick yourself up after a failed moment and try again is admirable but it's the bare minimum. In fact he should beat himself up over that missed opportunity, focus on what he could've done better and look to improve by dedicating hours upon hours of work in training. He's entering his peak now. Much is expected.

Lautaro already exceeded my expectations. When he came, I thought he would be like a better version of Ruben Botta, not somebody who scores the most outlandish goals for Inter since Adriano and Ibra played here.

After Ricky Alvarez and Ruben Botta… yes he exceeded the expectations.

Well, hopefully he continues his scoring record in CL. With the right pieces he can score a few goals more, IMO.

I like him.

"In fact" as if you are some credentials to tell pro athletes how to mentally prepare themselves.
I think a little bit has been lost in the translation of Lautaro's interview. I think he implies what both of you intend in your posts.

Lautaro is Inter's face now, every average football fan will think first of him when mentioning Inter.
I hope he has a great season.
