Mauro Icardi

[brakbrak]

Wait she revealed locker room secrets?
You mean like when she said icardi can choose who plays and everybody was like yeah sure ?
Or what exactly did she say that could be deemed a locker room secret?

maybe the fact that Inter wants to buy player who can make passes is a locker room secret...

With all the shitshow going on and if Conte doesnt want Icardi here, I would gladly take a straight swap with Dybala, the only question is if Dybala wants to come here. But for the love of God,please do not replace our top 10 all time goal scorer with the fucking fatso who once injured himself for controlling the ball with noone around him.

 

[CafeCordoba]

Yeah I think we still have a better hand than them.

Why do people keep saying that Icardi/Wanda want to move to Juventus when it has been the other way around so far?

Marotta wants to push Icardi to Juventus. He has done nothing to resolve the issues Icardi has had with Spalletti since December, which coincided with his arrival, and instead it escalated into an Icardi vs Inter affair.... Are people blind here or simply have the memory of a drunk goldfish? All Marotta did was go publicly and contradict what Spalletti was saying and vice versa. I'd bet to some extent Spalletti and Icardi have even patched things up in some twisted way.

Conte has given his approval if he gets Dybala or someone else he'd like to have from them in return.

Yet Icardi wants to stay at Inter. If he wanted to go to Juventus he would have gone already. If he's left with no choice, I'm afraid he will move there. But don't come here and say shit about him when he points his ears against us, because that's what you guys wanted to see happen......

All the Wanditos have been saying is that they want to stay at Inter and Italy. That pretty much means that as far as they are concerned, they aren't listening to any offers. Not that they will listen to Juventus because they fill one of the two remarks. They don't want to leave, period. The management (Marotta and to an extent Ausilio) have been trying to get Juventus on board so that they can sell him there. We want to help them sort their FFP issues for fuck's sake!!!
We have been tortured for season after season, trying to squeeze money out of nothing to get through this and now not only we want to send our top player of the decade to our biggest enemies, we also want to become their aid in their quest to overcome FFP without scrutiny, because everyone remembers the fiasco with the Udinese valuations and they will be keeping an extra eye open, even for the Rubentini.

Why is everyone going insane here?

It depends if he fits Conte's system and if he mentality fits as well. Conte isn't a push around. Mauro himself hasn't said much but he needs to get Wanda to shut up because she keeps adding fuel to the flames every time she opens her mouth.

Also it's not clear what other players in the dressing room think of him. I'm pretty sure they're not happy with all this drama. I doubt Spalletti stripped him of captaincy because he didn't like it personally, the players probably didn't see him fit to be a captain.

And an important note, Mauro and Wanda keep saying that he loves Inter and wants to stay etc yeah fine sure but you can't ignore that one of the bigger reasons is that Wanda simply just doesn't want to leave Milan and it would be a big inconvenience to move somewhere else when they're already settled in with like 6 kids and they like the city. They also don't want to leave Italy so Juventus is the only destination he could go since Milan are a downgrade and are regressing.


I wouldn't be happy about giving him to Juventus since that helps them and we probably will get the short end of the stick on the deal. But what's more important is that we focus on what's best for Inter because there's been enough issues already and we need to start these next seasons with everyone on board.

What's best for Inter is not to give your pedigree goalscorer to your main rival, increasing a quality gap even further and taking a self imposed setback of several more seasons...

The facts are these:

Marotta wants to sell Icardi to Juventus. Probably does them a double favor with the FFP if we get someone they DO NOT WANT in return, like Dybala.

Conte was like 'not sure', he's quite good. Then he meets with Icardi and Marotta and is like "I'm not thrilled with this dude, Marotta please sell him to Juventus if you can get me Dybala or Douglas Costa or Cancelo or Bonucci or Szczesny or whoever else".

and Icardi is like: WTF?

And we are like "yeah, go Marotta, give him to Juventus!" Not even Fiorentina behaves this way and everyone is acting like they are some sort of feeder club to Juventus. We're giving them a get out of jail free card, one of the best strikers of the decade and what we're getting is a big fuck you in return. And people seem to advocate this!! Are we fucking serious??? If we want Dybala, just fucking buy Dybala!

Even by your standards, this is like someone drunk writing this
Did you spend your Sunday drinking and watching conspiracy theories?

with all due respect, fuck off.

Lol...common chill with the Conte hate.
It haven’t even started yet. Wait at least until he fails, then we’ll all be here, bowing you, while you tell us “ fuck all of you, I told you so”

Marotta wants to sell Icardi to Juventus. Probably does them a double favor with the FFP if we get someone they DO NOT WANT in return, like Dybala.

What I'm confused about is if Juventus are after Guardiola then I think its obvious that he would much rather have Dybala than Icardi. Allegri was the one who had an issue with Dybala

 

[brehme1989]

Juventus contacted almost every coach out there and got rejected by everyone except from Pochettino (allegedly told them to wait until the final, but some suggest he told them no), Sarri (probably said yes, which is why he's universally regarded as the next coach) and Simone Inzaghi (who probably is dying to join them and leave that Lazio shithole). There were rumours about an ultimatum to Guardiola until the CL final which doesn't really affect him in any way, so anyone is free to take whatever they feel from the Guardiola rumours. One of the rumours was that they'd want to lock him for when his City contract is up and that's why they wanted Simone Inzaghi as some sort of long term caretaker.

Guardiola is not going to RuBe stop that silly rumor.

 

[CafeCordoba]

I understand brehme your rationale. And yes, you are correct about Wanda/Icardi saying what they want to go. Of course they haven't publicly said they want to go to Juventus. And what I've meant when I've said that is, that it's the destination they want to go IF they leave Inter.

And yes, it indeed is that Inter wants to sell Icardi. We want to sell him, but are narrowed to basically one option where he can go, which means there are no market valuation for the asset. It's not market if there's only one "option". But Icardi (Wanda) aren't pushing for the transfer actively. However the threat Wanda made was a bit silly one. In their perspective it would have been more wise not to make that kind of threat because now it indeed looks more that they will see out the contract and that's the plan. Even if we know it really isn't, because the club is pushing for the transfer, not other way around.

But it's extremely difficult to talk this subject in this forum, because the forum is like 95% full of Icardi hate. The narrative has been perfectly placed in media which has lead to almost all of the fan base turning completely against Icardi.

 

[Nerraz]

A lot of people keep talking about Icardi's value being around 110+, but no club ever went in for him, even before the "strike". 9 players have gone for 90 mio+, and that's including Ronaldo x2, Bale, Mbappe and Neymar. All these players offered way more than Icardi and came without baggage (Might be some drama surrounding Neymar, but at least he never refused to play)

That said, I'm not really convinced about Dybala. He's 25, turning 26 this year, but most people are still talking about him like he's 21.

We'll see

 

[firmino]

You, as a criticizer of Icardi's behavior, sure are behaving like him

i must have missed the part where i'm paid to work for fif blivious:

anyways, i have to go back on my word this time, i can't stay away this long. but i find it stupid to put a person who defends a guy in the same category of those who move to him false accusations.

back to topic, wanda's words to that argentinian radio (or maybe it was a tv, but it doesn't matter) clearly mean that they want to wait till the contract expires, which would be a long 2 year wait.

but other than that i don't see a "strategy" or a "warning" to Inter. she just talks too much and in doing so gives marotta an advantage, as it's now clear what they want to do.

 

[Sassuolu]

Keeping Icardi would be a massive FU to Spalletti but we don't want to sell him for chump change either, we are in a bad position, only way we can make something out of him is probably a trade.

 

[firmino]

I'm under the impression that icardi believes that now that spalletti is gone, it's all good for him at Inter.

 

[Native]

Icardi's probably worth around 30m right now. He's a shell of his former self. Maybe the extreme delusion and overratedness that still kinda surround him due to long gone performances can give us double that amount though.

But I'm afraid most clubs are now well aware that buying Icardi also means buying Wanda. This is the same as serving a KFC Bucket with human excrement instead of chicken wings: it devalues the product almost entirely, and the shell is the only thing you pay for.

 

[vex]

I'm under the impression that icardi believes that now that spalletti is gone, it's all good for him at Inter.

Wouldn't surprise me at all if that's the case, I still can't decide, was he unbelievably stupid or extremely naive in all of this. Probably a healthy mix of both.

 

[varmin]

It's possible Marotta to push for Icardi's sale not because he wants to do a favor to Juventus but to prevent further troubles for Inter. After next season Icardi will have only a year left of his contract. So, he and Wanda will have big leverage to push for whatever they like. From management's actions looks like they don't have an intention to increase his wage and possibility to leave for free will be much higher.

 

[firmino]

according to calciomercato.com, conte will meet icardi in the coming days and will inform him about the decision of the club to let him go.

the article was published yesterday, and i can't account for how reliable it is (calciomercato is usually a fairly good source), here's an english version of it anyway: https://www.calciomercato.com/en/ne...r-talks-with-icardi-as-dzeko-deal-nears-80428
