Let's wait till Saturday for these things.

So far we got Hakimi while Tonali and Kumbulla are also joining us soon as it seems. We need to see who leaves as well.

I wonder if we put all the mercato action on hold while the management handles the coach issue. Tonali is booked, but I wouldn't be surprised if he's announced only on September.

There's no way Conte should stay at this point, especially with his terms.

Imagine we let him dictate the transfers, who comes and goes, he sells Skriniar and Brozovic or Lautaro, brings a couple of scrubs and then whines because we didn't bring Morata or Vidal or Kante or someone else he wanted, despite him being the last of 5-6 players in. And then rage quits. We're left with an overhauled squad that won't work, losing core players in the process and ruining an entire season.

If he stays, he must have close to zero say in the transfers. And he's not going to stay that way.

Well said.

It doesn't matter what transfers we make this month, it will be the same vicious cycle next year. We'll fall short of winning a trophy, Conte will bitch about not having the backing of the club while threatening to quit, etc. Let's just cut off the cycle now and move on with our lives.

Why did we cut off players like Perisic and Icardi when Conte has the same tendency as them to become a big man-child? Clean the fucking team Marotta and kick out the next child.

Because Candreva and Icardi are still terrible players, no matter who the coach.

With Allegri or anyone else, we should keep Perisic. He will be a useful option on the bench when we want to throw more players forward, or have a tactical change.

No! Bring back Persic and Icardi (as the 4th striker) hire Capello as the manager and make Wanda as the voice of Inter. Move Conte as the special assitant to Steven. Start the season with Sensi and Sanchez so they can get injured. Have a mid-field of Broz, Vidal and Ninja with an unlimited after hours expense account.We can have some real fun then.

Conte has to have a little say in transfers. Otherwise we'll have 5 more Eriksen's.

Conte is making club's job keeping players easier though. They all want to play for him. I'm just saying it's not an easy balance for the club.

Also, he approved and/or used almost everyone they gave him. Lukaku, Sensi, Barella, Lautaro, all improved and were pivotal to our success. And he used some shitters too, like Biraghi, Young, Sanchez accepted crazy pay cut...

If he stays it should be on Inter's terms or he can fuck off, but he hasn't been that detrimental to sqaud building, if at all, just yet.

I am tired of rebooting the rebuild every year, it's been a failure for 10 years ...

When we're gonna start asking "Is it the dozen of coaches fault, or Inter ?".

it's no one entity's fault, these cycles happen all the time to great teams, it's a combination of a lot of things usually

I post it here.
It's a loy of talk about selling Brozo to Bayern and I don't know where this rumour comes from?

But I can see Bayern and Man. United in the market for a CB and we have Skrniar. We could sell Skrniar and with that money we can go for SMS and Kumbulla. So we won't break the FFP.
We still have enough good CB and also could integrate Kumbulla gradually.
A midfield of Tonali, Barella and SMS behind Eriksen gives me already an erection. It would be the best midfield in Italy easily. And we all know, the games are won first and foremost in midfield. And we still have Brozo and Sensi as rotational players. Our eyes won't bleed anymore without Gags and Vecino. What do you say?

I say we sell Brozovic. He is a moody player. With Brozovic money, we can buy Kante.

I actually like the idea of replacing Conte with Allegri. He is experienced, knows the league, doesn't whine like Conte, the squad is perfect for him, we might keep Skriniar, incorporate Eriksen and play 4 in the back.

We won't have to deal with tantrums anymore.. What's not to like?!

We need a coach for 3-5-2 now, last year we had trouble to switch to 3-5-2 from 4-2-3-1 and now somebody thinks we should go back the same way. Great idea to keep having an incomplete squad.

We were linked to Allegri when he left Milan. This forum went apeshit with anger. Funny people are now like he is the answer he is the chosen one to lead us out of this darkness.

I say keep Conte. Give him a 2nd year. We finished 2nd is Europa league and the italian league. We have 0 bench.

Let’s see what he can do in year two. I don’t want another rebuild

Frankly it’s more because Allegri knows how Conte’s system works, so that we are able to use the players we have now without having to go through a major overhaul instead. And if we want to invest him thereafter we can do that in the season after that

I honestly rather lose Conte than Skriniar and Eriksen even though I think Allegri's overrated.

+ lets not add more players to the 3-5-2 formation which we won't use after Conte is gone or after we actually want to challenge for UCL.
