Lautaro Martinez

[Inter7]

Something I like about lauti is he doesn't bitch to his teammates like lukaku used to. If it's a bad to him he just gets on and presses.

 

[Ethor]

I'm starting to wonder if him being subbed out has some weird sportsmetric association, kinda like a pitch count with a starter in MLB. Taking him off following a yellow is SOP for Inzaghi. Hope he has a long productive streak though the rest of the season cause Inter will need him.

Should be untouchable alongside Skriniar, Bastoni, Brozovic and Barella

Not sure about this stat. Can't get this 0.76 number.

He is scoring 0.73 per every start (19 in 26), 0.58 overall (19 in 33) and one goal every 112 minutes (2127 minutes overall). + 3 assists.



Vlahović, for example, is scoring 0.72 per every start (23 in 32), 0.68 overall (23 in 34) and one goal every 124 minutes (2864 minutes overall). + 3 assists.


Yet,Vlahović is considered like some super sexy young superstar while Lautaro is "trash". Sure,Vlahović is 2 years and 5 months younger but still.

Also Lautaro was always so much more than his goals.

So Lautoro is better than Vlahovic and Haaland?



Stats. Smh. What the Lautoro "haters" are simply saying, for the umpteenth time, is that Lautoro is not good enough to lead the line at this level. A double against Empoli won't change shit. Don't just read stats, watch games.

And for the umpteenth time, if we consider not selling him, we need to buy an actual clinical striker to counterbalance his instinctual ways of scoring goals. Relying just on him and whether his spidey senses are tingling on any given day is just not good enough.

No. He is good enough to be leading striker here (or we believe will be good enough very soon) if we can't buy top top striker like Haaland. He also need reliable partner like he was reliable partner to Lukaku.


For all people who want to sell just two very simple questions...who is that player better than him and also much cheaper of course cause if we sell him there is no way we will spend even 70-80% on new striker?! And why top clubs interested in Lautaro are not interested in this players?

1. Lautaro doesn't use his chances very much, a striker of his class should score what Lautaro doesn't score. I'm sure that Scamaсca or Satriano can easily replace him, as well as Belotti.
2. They don't watch all of Inter's matches like we do and they don't know about his ability to waste chances )

Agreed. I'm not for selling Toro either. This is why I'm very keen on Dybala. I think they would complement each other nicely.

1. Agree with first part but he is just not that type of a player like for example Icardi was here,clinical finisher. We have some other qualities in him. He is scoring enough but should probably be more consistent. With the second part I can't agree,they are all few levels behind him.

2. That's maybe true,some clubs are for sure like that but not all of them.

 

[wera]

he was twice in the right place at the right time, we can debate if that was skill or luck, but good thing he did

Its a sticky situation! I like Lautaro attitude and work rate and he can score some nice goals. With right partner maybe he can improve his scoring too and get near to Lukaku figures?

Lautaro is weird case when you look him play. He is not the fastest, he has hard time to get past his man on one/one, he is not the best at his back to goal/covering and he is not that clinical front of the goal.

Don’t get me wrong I would like to see Lautaro-Dybala under Inzaghi, but I have my concerns for that duo too? Both are pretty slow and small/light.

But I think the right question in our case is… are Suning selling us for that 700-800m or do anyone offer what they are asking for? Do we have enough money to cover Suning demands 60-80m + we also need atleast two new midfielders and two CB’s too to replace Vecino, Vidal, De Vrij and Rano.

That is the reality and I don’t think anybody here oppose to keep Lautaro and get Dybala, Frattesi, Veretout, Bremer + another CB? But is that possible with our current finance? If it is then great, but I don’t know how we finance that? This is the reason people are looking to our roster and giving their thoughs who is easiest to sell/replace to get enough money to cover all transfers and still have good enough team to challenge for scudetto?

We might get decent money from Satriano, Esposito, Pinamonti, Sensi, De Vrij… but is it enough? We will play every 3-4 days next season and we have been lucky with injuries this season and we need good bench to compite!

Maybe we can also sell Hakan or Dumfries but then we need to get their replacements too?

I don’t think we need to get better player than Lautaro but get someone close to his level + get Dybala to replace Sanchez.

Im thinking Jovic or Martial on loan with half their wage and only option to buy ~€20-25m. Both are big risk but both can be good at Inzaghi system? Inzaghi did wonders with Immobile who sucked at Dortmund/Sevilla/loan back to Torino before Lazio.

Jovic has impossible task to bench Benzema and I bet Real is eager to get rid of him this summer.

Same goes to Martial. He is under performing at Seville now with couple injuries. But 2019/2020 season he was one of the best ManU players under Solkjaer and he played striker position that season.

We could also be looking for Suarez, Zapata, Muriel… with low fee/lower wages than Lautaro? Is it good enough Im not sure?

Small issue here. Lauti isn't under 24, he is nearly 25. Turns 25 in August.

I don’t think anyone is saying that Lautaro is trash, but sometimes little bit overrated and inconsistent. We also are not swimming in money and we need to sell someone to finance next merecato.

Vlahovic is only 22 years and Lautaro turns 25. But usually those years are critical and maybe its easier to compare when Vlahovic is couple years older and is more mature? Lautaro should be at his peak right now and no more waiting…

Vlahovic have gone only 3 games without scoring when Lautaro had first 5 games and then that 8 games run without a goal. (In the league).

Lautaro also managet to score only one goal in 8 games at CL.

Can you imagine amount of shit Lukaku would have here if he was our leading striker with those stats?

 

[Alex de Large]

i'll only change lautaro if it's for mbappe

So basically you don't wanna change Lautaro at all.

Important to remember Lukaku is a player oppositions have to directly game plan for. He's a unique combination of size and speed that can impact the game without scoring. With Lautaro he's pretty much average physically and generally doesn't trouble a defense at all unless he's scoring
