Antonio Conte

Fuck Allegri as well. Not only is he yet another gobbo, but at this point he's not even a real coach anymore. He should be at Spalletti's farm feeding ducks and harvesting grapes.

Amusing reply but it should be mentioned that Allegri isn’t a gobbo. Nor Milanista. Like most good managers, he just goes where the money and the potential for a good project is.

Conte is a gobbo through and through. Club captain and manager. And I feel like he just doesn’t give a shit since the whole
blow up after the EL Final. Which is just great news for us as we’re stuck with this fucker.

The atmosphere at this club is fucking dead. All that hunger and enthusiasm from the start of Conte's tenure has evaporated and the energy seems nonexistent at the moment. This concerns me far more than the results tbh.

Yeah, definitely. Because that speaks of lack of motivation by Conte. If he was suppose to be that top coach who gets his team running as a cohesive unit, we are pretty fucking far from that. And the lack of motivation/fire/younameit speaks of lack of future. We can't even expect anything considerably better.

Though I'm still saying one big win COULD trigger something but we need to really get that soon. We need to start gather the wins to mitigate the damage these constant errors in every match do to us and our self-confidence. Players are visibly so frustrated because there seems to become a moment in EVERY match when we concede over a clear error (or a bunch of errors).

If you supported his hiring to begin with, you deserve this. All of it.

Only an idiot couldn’t see hiring this Gobbo piece of shit for 12 million a year would bite us in the ass, hard.

Supported? He was celebrated as some sort of hero

Inter have only one win in their last 8 games, their worst record since 1970/71.

With Kante and Marcos Alonso in the place of Gagliardini and Perisic, we would be in the SAME SITUATION RIGHT NOW, LET'S NOT FOOL OURSELVES, IT'S NOT ABOUT THE PLAYERS.

Won the league and made the European Cup final the year after, all good.

Five more days to change managers, again someone who was Juventus' manager before us [and reached 2nd place in Serie A in his first Inter season], to try and emulate that season

Rookie coach, former Inter player and captain material, won the league after Heriberto Herrera was sacked. I'm on board the Cambiasso train if he's coming within the week

Yeah you can call Allegri what you want, boring, old-fashioned, whatever, but he's definitely just a professional manager who has gone to the best offer at the time.

We'll see him back to managing soon enough, probably here, Paris or Manchester United.

A bit harsh

I think you are gloating in a "told you so kind of moment".

The news of Conte may have come with excitement yes , finally a manager that has had some success is joining us, long were the days of the spallos and FDB's

"celebrating like a hero" is a bit far fetched....

Everyone is better than Conte.Bring Juric,bring De Zerbi, just sack this clueless overratted wig with his before christ football.

I disagree there, as much as i think the Coach and system are trash, those 2 players are to me arguably the best in their positions [LWB - CDM] not to mention Perisic isnt a LWB really and with #5 playing its like being a man down.

Funny how most of us agree that this fuck is only still here cause of his sky high salary, kind of ironic. Should have sent him packing in summer when he had that outburst but even then the 12 mio kept us from doing so.

I m kind of with Brehme if cambi is ready to take over give it to him. Dude was already a coach on the field while playing. I m sure the lads would like him better than Conte and also respect him cause most probably still have seen him play. Would also help our salary problems.

Thing i d hate most to happen is we keep conte till Jan he buys a couple more FBs/WBs to then fuck of 1 months later. So thats my biggest argument against conte I do not want him to spend any more money on this shitty project of his, and we know if he makes it to jan he ll bitch he ll moan he ll go to the press just so that he can sign another useless player.

Laugh at me all you want, but I miss Mancini.

So we have a manager which we are paying 12M a season but the most basic thing he has to do he cant? When you paying a manager this much money you expect him to adjust the game or tactics whenever this is needed. The job of a coach is to f*ckin read the game and act on it. We all know that Conte is incredible in his preparation of a squad and games but as I mentioned earlier this guy doesn't know how to act when the match goes another way than he was expecting. For a 12M coach this is f*ckin laughable.

For me the problems began after that famous meeting this summer. It is clear that after that we gave Conte to much power in our organisation and there is probably no one who will call Conte out as Marotta is the one hiring this guy in the first place. I think we overachieved last year thinking we could beat Juventus this year as a must but I've got the feeling we are worse then this time last year. The problem now is that we only have a squad to play 3-5-2 or any other formation Conte prefers. We will need a overhaul of the squad (again) if we fire this guy. Off course Allegri could do an okayish job with this squad and formation but any other coach we are going to hire will play in different formations then Conte does.

This means we have giving away 2 years, spending millions and millions on a coach and his fetish players and we only got CL-qualification easier then the years before. Yes we played an European Final after 10 years( and lost it due to incompetence of Conte, second place means we are first losers) and we got CL-football much more comfortable. But for all the trouble, heart attacks, rage attacks etc this shit isn't worth it and I'm really worrying about the fact as Universe mentioned earlier about the dead atmosphere at the club. The whole ''We are Inter and we will challenge for the big trophees'' atmosphere is gone with a coach who said the aim is to finish top 4 this season.

Conte should end the season here and be evaluated afterwards. This squad was built for his 3-5-2. A mid-season change on the bench would only make things worse, I believe.

This squad can easily revert to a 433 and any of its variations.

Who will be our left back, for example?

I really don't think so, we have no effective wingers. Perisic fully included in that.

Wait, what?

Why would I be gloating? My opinion on Conte as a person and coach has not changed at all. Neither has my stance.

But you are free to check the first 10 pages of this thread or something. Anyone talking diss about Conte was chased as if we said something bad about the biggest prodigy in modern football. He was considered the best/only fit to return the club to the Scudetto and was considered some sort of savior by many. That's not really begging arguments, it's exactly what people displayed. The only moment that cracked was with Slavia at home, briefly though, then with Barcelona at home, yet many had forgiven that until the Atalanta game remarks. Then many had also forgiven that.. until he lost the game to Sevilla. It is safe to say that the vast majority wanted this guy here and a significant portion of that majority behaved as if we have hired Helenio Herrera's reincarnation.

Young, Bastoni, Darmian, DDA and Kolarov. What this squad definitely doesnt lack is FBs.

If you want to back that up, you just won't be able to.
