Conte would have probably crashed out of the Champions League group stage again or if not, struggled to mount a title challenge with midweek European games and moaned about things...

You really don’t like Conte do you 🤣 Inzaghi is definitely surprising a lot of people outside of Italy though and that will continue again if they progress past Liverpool in the CL. Most probably thought Inter would struggle to maintain their position without Conte, Lukaku and Hakimi but their signings have worked and they’ve found a really good run of form recently, think they are unbeaten in their last 9 league matches.

I have nothing against Conte. Just pointing out the obvious things about him. He left Inter because Suning don't have the funds to invest in the squad but with a few cheap signings, Inzaghi has already surpassed what Conte did in the Champions League in 2 seasons with Inter in half a season and he has them on track to defend the Serie A title, all this after losing supposedly their best players in Lukaku and Hakimi. Also, Inter under Inzaghi has more wins, more goals scored and less goals conceded after 17 league games than at the same stage last season.

Aye, Conte leaving situation was weird and has backfired on him now significantly but he also signed a lot of them guys and left Inzaghi a championship winning team/group. Like the team/group he left Allegri at Juventus. Always helps. I’m impressed with their recruitment of Dzeko, Dumfries, Correa and Calhanoglu too to replace Lukaku and Hakimi and boost their squad depth. I sometimes wonder if Conte felt that Hakimi and Lukaku wouldn’t just be the only big players to be sold so the club could balance their books. Could be wrong but I think if he knew that they’d sell Lukaku and Hakimi and replace with them Dzeko and Dumfries he might of actually been a bit more likely to stay as he wanted Dzeko here and the other summer at Inter IIRC prior to Dzeko renewing his Roma deal.

If Conte thinks Inter would sell more players to balance the books, then he probably didn't speak clearly enough with the board. Sure, he did the build the Inter team and if anything, he should really know best whether they are truly good enough. Instead, he decided jump off the ship at the first sign of difficulty. Did he underestimate the players that he got, the players that he improved in the 2 seasons that he was there? None of the signings you mentioned there are WOW by any means and yet, Inzaghi has managed to maintain the same high level with them plus the squad he inherited minus Lukaku and Hakimi. Obviously things could still go wrong between now and May but so far, Inzaghi has Inter on good track, despite having lost supposedly the 3 most important people from their squad - Conte, Lukaku and Hakimi.

Vesper 30,171 Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 (edited) AC Milan And Inter Unveil New Stadium Plans With 'Cathedral' Design Set To Replace The San Siro https://www.sportbible.com/football/ac-milan-and-inter-unveil-new-stadium-plans-to-replace-san-siro-20211222 Italian giants AC Milan and Inter have unveiled plans for a new state-of-the-art stadium to replace the iconic San Siro. Named ‘The Cathedral’, the 60,000-seat stadium is set to replace the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza, better known as the San Siro, which has been home to Milan since 1926 and Inter since 1947. The new stadium, which is set to open in 2027, has been designed by architects Populous, who also helped to design the new Wembley. The inspiration behind the stadium’s design is two of Milan’s most famous buildings, the Duomo di Milano and the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele. The stadium has a rectangular shape and will be surrounded by vertical fins, which will extend outwards to support a glass wall that will enclose a space described as a "sunlit galleria". Meanwhile, the stadium seating has been designed to be the "most intimate in Europe" with fans placed as close to the pitch as possible. Under the plans, which are set to be finalised next year, the new stadium will be built alongside the existing San Siro, which will then be demolished as part of a redevelopment of the wider area. “The new San Siro will be the most beautiful stadium in the world for its strong identity and recognisability,” said AC Milan president Paolo Scaroni. "An attractive arena, accessible and sustainable for the city of Milan that will facilitate the growth of the clubs and their global competitiveness."

Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 (edited) In other news, the battle between the two ex-Chelsea Strikers aka Milan vs Roma was comprehensibly won by Giroud. Tammy deflected a Theo shot with his arm and gifted Oli a pen. Girou then assisted a 2nd via the post, Tammy scored the goal for Roma too.

milka 3,394 Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Why only Chelsea, taking an expensive striker, nothing happens? Vlahovic 1 game - 1 goal and good perform .

Why I agree he will score a tonne (same league, better team) but there is no way to say he would not score here, and score more than Lukaku I see no reason why he would not succeed here (maybe not the same number of goals as in Serie a, but still a shedload IMHO) we have had CF's score a good amount here in the past 2016/17 Diego Costa 22 2014/15 Diego Costa 20 2012/13 Fernando Torres 22 2009/10 Didier Drogba 37 2006/07 Didier Drogba 33 2008/09 Nicolas Anelka 25 2001/02 Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink 29 2000/01 Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink 26 Olivier Giroud scored a lot given the lighter amount of minutes he played (39 goals in only around 5700 minutes for us) Plus in his time here: FA Cup: 2017–18; runner-up: 2019–20, 2020–21 (robbed in both games by PGMOL, especially v Arsenal) UEFA Champions League: 2020–21 UEFA Europa League: 2018–19 (destroyed Arsenal 4-1, and he scored) EFL Cup runner-up: 2018–19 (the Kepa 'no go' game v Citeh) FIFA World Cup: 2018 and in the 2017 FA Community Shield (the Pedro red card late that allowed them to draw even) he scored the winning shootout pen for Arse versus us (still have NO CLUE why Cuntois took a pen, which he missed, of course) (Chelsea part post January transfer) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
