No way Lazio sell SMS just before the end of the mercato. Or any top player for that matter. Icardis damage is done.

Yes, its extremely unlikely. But its not impossible. Lazio are cash whores. Also, when Man Utd were after SMS, there were rumours that Inzaghi wanted Gagliardini as the replacement. If that rumours had any truth in it, a deal could be done even on the final day by throwing the Icardi cash + Gags at Lazio.

But if Icardi doesn't leave, then I don't see how Inter could get SMS.

Jesus christ, not an easy group in CL. We DEFINITELY need a new midfielder and a good one. Just boot Valero the fuck out, tell him he's done, no minutes available. We won't survive the group stage with our current midfield.

Unless SMS somehow manages to happen due to Icardi being sold, I see any midfield purchases a long shot. But lets hope.

I think Sensi, Brozo, Barella, Gaglia and Vecino are enough to hopefully hold our own against most teams, but with one injury to those first three names.... yikes.

And Brozovic-Barella-Sensi midfield isn't that scary, you only have to look at the sizes of those players.

we still need top midfielder and attacker, politanos and papas are not enough for CL

his first choice was baselli, now torino is out of EL and cairo said that there will be sales

You folks close the Sanchez thread, and say someone can open a player thread, yet no one is able to. What is it with you guys? :serious:

I'd take Baselli in a heart beat, but don't think he's much of an upgrade over Barella or Sensi. SMS or nothing.

Apparently our "Market is closed". These motherfuckers better reconsider that decision after the draw they witnessed. They didn't even give a poker face. Zhang and Marotta's faces were screaming "fuck."

Our midfield definitely could use a pick up or two, but overall we're pretty solid. I'm afraid that with Icardi not leaving we have our hands tied from getting any names that will actually make a difference, especially against teams like Barcelona and Dortmund (who had a pretty killer mercato)

I still feel like this has been a pretty excellent window. Obviously the Icardi/nainggolan/perisic situation is far from ideal, but it's kind of unfair to pin the lack of sales of those guys on the dudes running the window (my point being that the development of the situation has little to do with the mercato team). Considering the hand they were dealt they've done pretty well, I'm hype for most of the new pick ups we've got, and while I'm sad at some of the youth we dumped (karamoh, puscas, Pina, vanheudsen) we mostly got buy backs/future sale clauses on the players that matter.

Still, an extra midfielder would really be a cherry on top... SMS dreams

Serious question. How long has it been since we have not had at least one Brazilian fullback in the team? 15-20 years?

2003/2004 IIRC our full back was Francesco Coco, Jeremy Brechet, Javier Zanetti, Thomas Helveg, Giovane Pasquale.
