Luciano Spalletti

[forzainter257]

Blaming the squad quality becomes a weak argument when you look at the squad of Atalanta and how they play. Even Napoli's roster is not better than ours, but they somehow manage finishing second. I just don't know how to explain this squad problem to myself. Every team has injury problems, Ghoulam was the best fullback in serie A before he got injured. They replaced him with Rui and they continued playing in the same fashion. They sold Jorginho, but they still have creative midfield.

But when an Inter player gets injured the whole world stops...

FB news: Today there should be a meeting between Inter and representatives of Spalletti to try to transdate the contract, otherwise they will proceed with the sacking

I know its controversial but considering the cost of sacking spaletti is 25m I would rather see that money go towards players. Its probably like 40% of our bet transfer budget there.

 

[Bluenine]

I know its fashionable to shit on the coach and the management. Here is an interesting fact of the Spalletti era.

Transfer spending deficit in the last two years:

Milan: - €259m
Inter: - €57m

Champions League qualification:

Milan: 0
Inter: 2

That says it all. Spalletti did what he was brought here to do, and he managed it under severe SA restrictions. Maybe its time to move on from Spalletti onto bigger and better things, but lets spare a moment and give credit where its due.

everything must be seen in the right perspective: a single bad signing can cost us as much if not more. dalbert is a perfect example of this.

so it's a lot of money, no doubt about it, but worth it if it's the right choice. which i'm not saying it is, but it can make sense.

and all things considered, i personally can't just endure another year like this. blivious:

All the people defending Spalletti here keep talking about the results of us reaching the CL twice and ignoring the fact that we made it on 72 and 69 points and ignoring all the easy games we lost.
Don't talk about squad quality when you can't beat an Udinese side that's in the relegation zone
Don't talk about squad quality when you blow a 2-0 lead to Torino at home
Don't talk about squad quality when all your rivals have worse squads than you do.

and most importantly

Don't talk about squad quality when the coach is content with 1 point against a 17th place Udinese.

This is the biggest problem with Spalletti. Not his tactics, not his bald head and most definitely NOT his squad. It's his small club loser mentality.

 

[PHM1605]

That's how you evaluate a season? Can you give any coaches on this planet whom don't lose point(s) against much weaker teams?

I'm not saying that we should never drop points against a weaker side. I'm saying it shouldn't be done so often as it has.

Inter - Udinese [0]-0
Cagliari - Inter 2-[1]
Fiorentina - Inter 3-[3] (Yes they're a weaker side that almost got relegated)
Inter - Bologna [0]-1
Torino - Inter 1-[0]
Inter - Sassuolo [0]-0
Chievo - Inter 1-[1]
Inter - Parma [0]-1
Inter - Torino [2]-2
Sassuolo - Inter 1-[0]

Total: 25 points dropped. We could have at least got 5-9 of those points no?

Not to mention the draws against Roma and Juventus at the end of the season were very winnable games. 4 points
And I'd consider Lazio a smaller team (Who are evidently shit as we have seen now by them being 8th) and we drew to them. 2 points
Defending a draw at home to PSV. I wouldn't mind drawing with them because sure it's CL and pressure blablalba but the manner of how we played sums up the Spalletti mentality.

So yeah.

I agree with you there.
Spalletti isn't as bad as people make him out to be. He has his flaws, mainly:
-Lack of balls which costed us the CL exit, but anyone thinking that 2nd place was expected from Inter is delusional.
-Doesn't trust youngsters
-Isn't that great at managing locker room issues.

But all the other coaches not named Klopp, Guardiola, Pochettino, Ancelotti also has their flaws.

Conte maybe is a slight upgrade, but the difference between the two is definitely not worth the figures being thrown in the medias. I would rather we invest that money into a solid player and let him finish his contract.

That is bullshit. We were second heading into the last group game knowing a win is enough but Spalletti banked on Barca B beating Tottenham for us and failed. If he placed his house on that, he'll be homeless.

Lets compare our selfes with the only club that went through even more shit then we did in the last two years that was short before bankruptcy and that was taken over by a vulture fund last summer. Then lets circle jerk for beating them by the tiniest fucken margin.

The fact that milan was in striking distance of us on the last matchday is a fucken disgrace! Give credit for what? For achiving the absolute minimum that was requested of him or give credit for getting beaten by fucken atalanta? WHo by the way had spent even less on transfers then we do but wait that would make spallo not look good so lets not include atalanta!
Every other coach from mou to conte to sarri gets shit for losing the locker room, not if your at inter here Icardi, perisic, radja and brozo are the culprits but the man in charge of them who should manage them no fucken blame.

His first year her was good and i ll give him credit for that but his second season has been a complete cluster fuck after that PSV match.

But then again we should only compare our selfes to other big clubs who are run like shit so i guess it was a positive season cause guess what roma also finished behind us.

I'd even argue it's not time to take the next big step. I feel like we are trying to take 2 steps forward at once while risking falling 4 steps down.

I really don't see the urge to press the hard reset button by getting someone like Conte. If we're gonna sack Spalletti I'd rather have Mourinho who can improve on and add to what we have built over the last two years. Conte simply makes no sense to me. We'll be yet again, for the umpteenth time, starting over from year 0.

You are using exactly the same way to sum up the season i.e. use the total number of point lost <=> total number of points gain. You also use ranking of Lazio to claim "utterly shit". Why can't I use the same way (i.e. use the final result) to cut some slack for Spalletti?

Scan down to the beginning of this thread, you will see, most of us didn't expect a winner. But a serious coach tidying up the crap for a long time and making path to a top coach. In two years time, Spalletti has given two CL tickets, which worth 100m+. A decent run in CL. He hasn't done great things but hasn't failed the minimum requirements either.

Let me remind our horrendous situation two years ago. Our coach options were De Boer. Vecchi. Pioli. Marcelino. Conte & Mourinho options are nowhere near here atm if Spalletti didn't move backwards to lay the stepping stones. You blame for losing points left and right, ok, but can you make a similar list for the previous coaches? Did we give him a winning grinding machine to begin with?

You are only seeing what you want to see. Yes, Spalletti fucked up against PSV but then you have to give him credit for being in a position where we had a chance to qualify against Barça and the future CL finalist. We held our own against both barça and Tottenham, that is no small feat.

To me in the end the CL exit was expected, it was a fair reflection of where we are in our growth process. I don't give credit to spallo and I don't put blame on him either. But if you want to blame him for PSV, also give him credit for being in that position in the first place.

These sound like the words of someone who has seen the results but not the games. The games against Barcelona and Tottenham were surprisingly not difficult at all.
Spalletti didn't pull a miracle to have us in 2nd place.

The other coaches were shit, there's no comparison. I'm not saying Spalletti is the worst coach in the world nor one of the worst for Inter. He's the best one in the last 8 years but that's not due to him being great, that's more so because the others were awful and they had nowhere near as good a squad as he did even if you argue that the squad is not great.
Also the final result is us having 69 points. The fact that we ended up in CL is due to Milan and Roma shitting the bed more than anything.

Also in 2015-16 we ended up 4th on 67 points. If Serie A had 4 spots in CL then we would've made it.

With the team he had, including the injuries and feuds etc and considering the state of the other top 5/6 teams we should've been comfortably in 3rd place (which is just +4 or 5 points from where we are which is easily doable) instead of barely making it in 4th.

There is no credit to be given to Spalletti for his second season. Biggest thing on top of that is he is a loser with a loser mentality. Look no further than the quote in my signature to sum up his mentality.

Nainggolan: "I'm sorry that Spalletti will go away, he wanted me here. He is a great coach, has worked so hard, has reported Inter in the Champions League for two consecutive years, the merits are given. I love him and I hope he keeps doing what he likes to do, that is to train

Where'd you get this? Did Nainggolan actually say Spalletti is leaving even when there's been no words form the club or Spalletti himself saying that?

It's on fcinter1908.it too. Nainggolan said that openly, Mi dispiace che Spalletti andrà via.

Actually everyone knows that, it is, what French call a secret_de_Polichinelle.,
