The message Mancini is sending to Kova is clear: Play in every position except the one that you excelled at when you first arrived. It will not work, just like a square peg in a round hole. We will then proceed to sell you for 15 million, and do fuck all with the proceeds while continuing to feed the fans the same bullshit rhetoric about the importance of developing young players.

19 and 20 yrs old Modric couldnt play for Dinamo. He was on loan in Bosnian league and Kova plays for Inter and he is most talented player here. We are expecting too much from kid at the moment.

this is ridiculous. with that logic he could do anything and it would be okay because he's young.

we've seen what kovacic is capable of. we've watched him play for the past 2 years, and we can make judgements based on him improving or getting worse based on what we've seen.

That's one way to look at things but also isn't normal to change 3 different coaches in 2 seasons. Consider that all three coaches tried at least 2 tactics each and than consider that each of those coaches tried Mateo on at least two positions. That's at least 12 different football variations.

Even experienced players like Vidić, Hernanes or Palacio were lost sometimes, playing bad big time. About Guarin's, Ranochia's or Juan's flops we don't need to talk at all.

Why do you thing that our most consistent preformers are Handanović, Medel and Icardi?

Im glad Mancini thinks he's the biggest talent in Europe. It's definitely showing. If he only could defend as well as Santon or Hernanes, maybe he could merit a spot on the field.

He thinks that and he benches him every game. After the fantastic rise under Mazzarri, where he was the heart of the team, he's then since been a cross between waterboy and heroin addict with a lot of money.

I will be sad and happy if he decides to leave at the summer. Sad because we will lose one big talent and happy because young boy will have a chance to show his full potential somewhere else.

Just like Bonucci, Destro or Coutinho.

I don't understand why Mancini puts him in the situations he does. He has never looked good as an attacking midfielder. He needs to look up and see the field. I understand he needs to prove himself but as our potential best player. He needs to be out in situations to succeed. Reminds me of the treatment coutinho got while here. Either started and if no impact was made , was a bench player next game. Or came on late while inter was down and the other team putting 10 men behind the ball, and being criticized for not making an impact. Kids need consistent starts. In consistent positions. In all situations. Not just harsh ones. (I'm not saying all kids) but ones that are the future cornerstones of your team like kova and coutinho.

Try kovacic beside medel as destroyer and regista.

Mancini has already said that he can't play as a Regista yet.

Mancini doesn't play him further back as he doesn't believe in his defensive qualities, which is funny because the team is just as awful defensively whether Kovacic plays or not. At least he can keep possession better than our other midfielders.

He doesn't fit in Mancio's "bully" mf system.
Shaq is prefered in the AM department so he gets a random minute here and there...
If Mancini doesn't want to use him in the future we need to sell him to Liverpool so he can shine there while we play Guarin and admire his shooting from the centre circle to row Z and his possesion holding skills while we battle for 9th place!

> Be Mancini
> Say CMs shouldn't lose possession so Kovacic can't play there yet without improving.
> Play Guarin as a CM who loses possession 31 times a game.

Kovacics best game were when he was playing a little deeper. Stubborn italian coaches are the absolute worst thing in all of soccer. Doesn't trust kovacic in defense? Does he actually watch guarin play? He's a chicken without a head.

If we keep benching him, even for unimportant games like the one today against Cesena, it will be true.

It's not that difficult to see where this is headed. Someone will come up with a reason why it will be ok.

I can imagine Kova being sold because Mancini doesnt like him, few months later Mancini gets sacked :pokerface:
