sure, and fiorentina had tomovic, ambrosini, commper, vargas, anderson, roncaglia, old ass pizarro and joaquin, inconsistent as fuck ilicic. plus gomez and rossi were injured so at one point they had to play ryder matos
plus they were juggling with europa league... and they still managed to finish fourth, ahead of inter who spent 50 million in the transfer window that summer.
of course, I think fifth place was a fair result when you take everything into consideration (mazzarri), but I dont think third or fourth place was as far off as you thought and is far off now (im not talking about "we can still qualify for champions league", im saying our squad should easily be competitive for third place). at a point, roma were stuck with fucken taddei and romagnoli from their primavera in the defense. torosodis and dodo were often their starting fullbacks (aside from maicon). in the beginnning of the season they were playing borriello when destro was injured. dont give "we had jonathan" as an excuse, and to be fair, he was in pretty good form across the first few months of last season.
and note i didnt mention the 13/14 season in my old post. i dont think anyone can argue that our table finishes are representative of what our squad is capable of, though. at least from my perspective, the problems at inter are largely mental. first lets obviously give mancini time and some stability in coaching. then the players need to be stronger. simple as that. the mentality of this team is absolutely horrible. they need to undestand what it means to wear the inter jersey. and thirdly, they need to enjoy their football, which is something most players havent done at inter for years.
