We will surely make at least 1-2 more. Guarin, Gargano, Kovacic, Kuzmanovic, Cambiasso, Benassi, Duncan, Obi aren't enough especially considering 1-2 of them will not be here and 1-2 are forever injured.

Gargano/Cambiasso/Duncan DM
Kuzmanović/Obi/Benassi CM
Guarin/Kovačić AM-CM

If we will use 3 midlefielders formation it's more than enough. Quality is questionable but ... I would loan Duncan and Benassi. I wouldn't sign Gargano and Cambiasso, Kuzma, Kova, Guarin and Obi wouldn't be enough.

I'd like to see benassi make more appearances. He has good qualities as a passer and shows decent if not good defensive effort. If inter is going with a 3 man midfield for the foreseeable future then he has a place in that rotation.

And guarin is a boss on the right side of the midfield. He played there at the end of last season and proved to be a handful for other teams.

But we will see how much kovacic will improve our midfield and what his role will be in by the end of the season. If he show competence defending then I don't think inter will need another midfielder, including gargano.(assuming benassi or Duncan stays and has quality)

No point in having Obi + Duncan + Benassi if we are never playing them.

Either we play Benassi or loan him. Duncan should really be loaned for the time being.

So....

Summer mercato almost over for transfers in? o.0

Campagnaro, Andreolli, Icardi, Laxalt...

1 player can definitely improve our midfield a lot, but there is only a limit to it. We looked much better with Kuzman, but that doesn't take the midfield to the level of Juve/Barca.

Which is why, we should be looking for a player better than Gargano, or more specifically, one who can contribute defensively and encompasses more technical skills than Gargano.

No?

If we wanna be just as good as those midfields, then we need a line of midfielders who are decent on the ball, while being good defensively. That's exactly what Juve's midfield is, unless we have the technical superiority like Barca.

That's fair, but that wouldn't ensure that we play as a team. We have quality attackers but not the best attack. Primarily because we depend a lot on individuals to do the trick, and there doesn't seem to be much of tactical movement there. The same would apply to midfield also.

That's the coach's job the organize the tactical approach to the game.

We are talking about the mercato team here, which is to supply players to be at the disposal of Stramaccioni. If we've built a decent squad and Stramaccioni still manages to make us look like a Serie C2 team, then I'm afraid we'd have to change coach, which I don't want to see.

What the fuck is going on, we are dealing with transfers and not having the end of a transfer window? Inter, is that really you? :eek: The thing which is even stranger is that those players we are interested in, are all players who would suit a youth project. If we are really going to sign Markovic, Peruzzi, Icardi and Andreolli then it seems like we really have a clue what we are doing. :eek:

<br />
0 0 0 Icardi 0 0 0<br />
Markovic 0 0 0 0 0 Palacio<br />
0 0 0 0 0 0 0<br />
0 Kovacic 0 Cambiasso 0 Guarin 0<br />
0 0 0 0 0 0 0<br />
Nagatomo 0 Juan 0 Ranocchia 0 Zanetti<br />
0 0 0 0 0 0 0<br />
       Handanovic<br />

We won't sign Markovic, his price is already too high (Higher than Kovacic price). Partizan wants at least 20, is the last word.

No matter how good Kovacic performs till the end of this season, I do think that we will need one more quality midfielder for next season to play alongside Guarin and Kovacic (if he performs well). Cambiasso and co. would obviously be there as well.

Our targets for the summer window are :

2CB's: Campagnaro and Andreolli who are supposedly already ours
a RB: Peruzzi/Jung...
winger: Di Maria/Dzsudzsák/Markovic...
ST: Icardi

don't know if we are getting another CM but Obiang from Samp would be nice but I have read Farca and Real M. are already after him :eek:blivious: I also like Strootman(CM,DLP or a holding MF) and Nainggolan(but he is Guarin-esque)

but please get rid of: Deki,Silvestre,Chivu,Jonathan and Rocchi

Already mentioned, earlier ^ But if rumours are true then it seems we're finally doing our job preparing for the summer rather than panic buying everyone with hours to spare

Wow we aren't obsessed with South America any more ...... this is mind boggling. I have no idea who the players we want but it's nice to see we aren't pulling our hair out for some random kid no one other than their grand mother cares about.

As long as we buy a striker I will be happy

lol we will buy a striker, there is no doubt about

even Longo and Livaja wouldn't be enough, because u never know who is gonna get injured.... the problem with buying a striker is that we don't know if we are getting Adriano or Forlan or Cruz :epicwin:

New names for the summer mercato according to Di Marzio are Diamanti and G.Pasquale for the vice Nagatomo role :trollol:

I kind of like Diamanti be he will be 30 soon as well :eek:blivious: Pasquale :trollol:

also we are still on the Icardi hunt and Peruzzi from Velez is looking less likely because of a issue with his passport

If it's 50-50 or loan for Duncan i wouldn't mind a bit. But selling him would be very, very stupid.

Diamanti wont be bad buy after all, he is 29, little too late but could bring us at least 3 good seasons. The thing is, Bologna would want over 10 for their best player, and he'd want decent contract, so, would still be bad deal.

And Pasquale? :trollol:

Pasquale is from our primavera right?
I have nothing against him but he is just an average player for middle team in serie a
Why we cannot spend our money on a better player? :pokerface:
