Piotr Zieliński

[wera]

He is playing Inzaghi giving players game time before we play two big games, can't believe it

 

[Steevee]

He was on the pitch yeah, not entirely convinced we can call that showing "playing" though... dire showing.

 

[thatdude]

Eh I don’t think he was bad. I think he could actually be really good in our system if we give him time to get up to speed and some consistency. I’m just concerned he won’t get it because Inzaghi loves Mkhi.

Dire showing is a bit harsh imo. He’s clearly rusty and not fully integrated (expected), but showed some real class on the ball in a few instances.

I do too, I am excited to see what he will add to the team and hopefully he will take over from Mikhi this season.

But, I still think he was really poor. That’s all…

 

[Raul Duke]

Should be the certified starter from now on. I don’t think Miki can handle being a starter anymore. And the less said about Frattesi the better.

It’s kinda fitting, as Miki cemented his spot following our win against Barca in the CL.

 

[Steevee]

So much better tonight!

 

[cocky]

Looked like he’d been with us for years.. quality match

Dear Oaktree, this is why you should not object signing old players. Marotta should compile Acerbi, Mhki, Hakan, Darmian, Sommer, and Zielinski's performances and send them to the board so the Yanks management is not fixated on bottom line and sustainable youth development buzzwords.

Oaktree need to fix their football manager filter threshold. 30yo is not old; that's the prime age in football. But 34/35 is.
Depends also on the price. Free Mikhy is good because he proved at big teams previously. But 10m for a Bologna peak is not.
Right now I think Inter is playing too much the bipolar game. From Cuadrado-esque last year to 2003-2005 kids is like 15 year gap

It isn't about young or old. It's strictly about resale value for them. Maybe Beppe can convince them they can make exceptions for certain cases but i am not holding out my breath for it.

 

[Damageplan]

Was quite excited when this guy joined as he was always one of the smartest and most creative midfielders in Serie A. Hopefully yesterday was just a prelude of things to come and not an all time high.

Probably our worst player tonight, but didn’t have too much support on the right either. A looked more lovely when he moved to the left.

Zielinski is way more comfortable in the LCM position than RCM. Not everyone is Barella and they can just transition at a moment's notice

Even Barella doesn’t look as comfortable on the left. When you’re used to the mechanisms of one position it is more difficult to adjust.

I thought his game was fine today. Nothing to be worried about. Could have passed with a bit more confidence at time. That will come the more he plays.

Yeah his class is pretty obvious even when he’s out of step. I feel confident he will sharpen up quickly and become a key player if he isn’t one already.

Scored on a nice give and go vs Portugal

Zielinski revealed he was close to joining Liverpool when he was still at Udinese, as coach Jurgen Klopp invited him to his house

“Jurgen Klopp invited me to his house,” Zielinski revealed in an interview with FootTruck

“Liverpool sent a private jet to pick me up. I was shocked because it was the first time I travelled on that means of transport. When we landed, we took the bus to go to Klopp’s. It was a building, he had everything there.”

The Polish midfielder recalled the flattering comparison the German coach made in an attempt to persuade him to join Liverpool.

“The conversation was great. Klopp told me that I am a mix between Fabregas and Gundogan in his opinion. I didn’t understand anything, but my agent spoke German and told me everything.

“When we were leaving, I managed to take a picture with Klopp.”

Zielinski explained deal eventually didn’t go through due to Udinese’s demands, and not because of a picture in which the player posed with a Liverpool shirt as it was rumoured back then.

“They offered €18.5m, but Udinese wanted something more,” the Polish international said.

“Nevertheless, Liverpool couldn’t exceed a certain limit for me, as I wasn’t a top player yet. The other side of the coin is that I also didn’t feel like that.

“I don’t think [the picture in Liverpool’s shirt] had any effect. It wasn’t a big scandal, but [journalist] Bartosz Ignacik could’ve avoided all that. I was young, stupid and unaware and that’s the way it ended up. But it hadn’t any effect.”

Zielinski was eventually bought by Napoli for €16M.

This kind of news reminds me of that I was close to winning the main lottery in 2019, the only thing missing was 5 correct numbers.
