All youngsters should go play in Serie C, because it worked for my brother and I 30 years ago . The reason Italy has so few young talents to choose from for the national team.

I suggest we follow up the Mourinho vs Limone debate in another thread (maybe the Mourinho thread). And we focus on what Simone said about Primavera players.

Luiz Felipe,Strakosha, Keita Balde?

Luiz Felipe,Strakosha, Keita Balde?

Felipe wasn't a Lazio youth. They got him from a Brazilian club and sent him straight on loan to Salernitana. Strakosha started getting playing time at Lazio after a loan spell at Salernitana. Balde was integrated to Lazio by Pioli. He was already an established player when Inzaghi was hired.

Inzaghi is very reluctant to integrate a player straight from primavera. Like he said, they need to start from lower in his opinion

To be fair, the players mentioned in this article don't seem to be making it. The first name is playing for a newly promoted team in La Liga, while the other two players labelled in the article as having "incredible performances with the Primavera and strong qualities" are playing in Serie C now.
I think it's safe to say that Inzaghi made the right choice. It's also worth noting that there doesn't seem to be any new talent emerging from Lazio's Primavera team for quite some time.

Luiz Felipe,Strakosha, Keita Balde?

Yeah, Sergej Milinković-Savić was 23, Luis Alberto and Felipe Anderson was 24 when Inzaghi taking over, so technically he did launched young players.

I mean he did say he launched young players, he didn't specifically say from youth team, although the topic of discussion was launching youth team at Inter. Nothing wrong with loaning players to Serie B, the most important thing in this discussion is he did technically launch Felipe and Strakosha.

You are right, I totally got the timeline mixed up for Balde.

And IMO there's nothing wrong with that. Specially now at Inter, this is not a club to develop players.

Also want to point out the famous U23 team which Juve has been using successfully now, is playing in Serie C. So even loans to Serie C level should be fine (given the players actually play).

I guess it's another round of this same discussion, are you guys ready?

Nope they aren't the same. Only the owning clubs could really cash in their players. Otherwise club hire them only due to sporting reasons i.e. not care about development.

Moreover the poor loaned kid must learn all the new tactics, position, teammates, coach etc. every year. That makes his challenges double as hard.

It's like teaching kids running and wonder why one sucks because he must first figure out how to walk properly himself.

Creating our own C team is the best (and only) way. Loaning to other C teams is not. We might have sold him to small clubs to grant him the fair intern ticket. Like Di Gregorio. Or upcoming Fabbian & Esposito.

 

[CafeCordoba]

Yes, of course having your own team in Serie C is the best. No one has opposed that, not in this discussion, not in any other discussion either.

But you missed the point what I tried to mkae, that level played in Serie C is the same football these U23 teams play at. Yes, it's not the same when loaning players to Serie C teams, but Serie B teams is not the only route. It's more about the individual players, what's best for them, maybe Serie C level is better for some, for some Serie B is the correct level after Primavera. Point is, some of these Juve players have come through Serie C.

But RARELY anyone have come straight from Primavera. Roma (from the top clubs in Italy) manages to do that quite well with their Primavera kids. But they are different club compared to Inter, for instance. Pressure to win is not the same there, it's not REALLY expected, unlike at Inter.

 

[brehme1989]

There is just that little problem - I would hard agree with that statement if the club had some plan going forward. The club was destined for more greatness, but Moratti didn't care, Mourinho left and the squad was just too old to continue winning.

I understand we had no money to operate with, but yet something else could've been done. The perfection you speak off is sullied by 6-8 years of banter era.

And how's that Mourinho's fault?

Let's take this to Mourinho thread. Ping @wera too

Anyone see the report on one.football that Inzaghi has supposedly agreed to coach Manchester United next season?

23 and 24 years are already developed players.

K what the actual fuck is going on in training where half the team is injured

 

[pier]

5 wins in a row.
Come to think that he still not using the transfers reinforcement this season. Practically he is still on 0€ season for just using Taremi and Zieliński.

There's gonna be another international break in 3 weeks, things aren't looking good at all despite all the win. Looks like injury will keep on piling up.

 

[Fitzy]

Jesus fuckin' Christ. Another one.

 

[pupivn]

Jesus fuckin' Christ. Another one.

Yes, correct, even Jesus Christ couldn’t give a break (we play in 23th Dec)

 

[varmin]

I'd give him 2/10 for this game, only because he was able to boost the team morale at the half time. His subs were abyssal. Frattesi showed nothing, and only fucked up our midfield. Lautaro was pure trash this game, and Inzaghi should have subbed him for Taremi. Bisseck for Pavard also looks like bad decision, despite that this sub was excpected, due to the yellow card

 

[BasedGodPunk]

We have a serious issue with him. He cannot coach a well drilled team. He cannot finish games. Last year aside, each year it’s been the same shit.
