Former Italy striker Antonio Cassano believes new Blucerchiati signing Stefano Sensi is ‘better than Jorginho and Marco Verratti.’

Sensi joined Sampdoria on loan from Inter in January and scored on his debut against Sassuolo on Sunday.

He had been struggling with injuries and game time at San Siro, so he decided to move to Marassi to get consistent playing time, hoping to return to the Italy national team soon.

Cassano, a Sampdoria legend and a former Italy striker, spoke about Sensi in an interview with Il Secolo XIX.

The 39-year-old admires Sensi so much that he believes he’s even better than Chelsea’s Jorginho or PSG’s Verratti. Both midfielders played a key role in Italy’s Euro 2020 win last summer.

“To me, Sensi is the best midfielder in Italy right now. He is a sensational footballer and he deserves a top club,” Cassano said.

“I think he is even better than [Manuel] Locatelli, Verratti or Jorginho. If I were Mancini, I wouldn’t think twice and I’d gamble on him. Sensi’s only weak point was his fitness.”

Well, he's exaggerating but he's not wrong. He's on that level but he's just never fit.

Legendary former Inter, Real Madrid, Roma, and Sampdoria forward Antonio Cassano believes that despite the Nerazzurri having been linked with Paulo Dybala for much of the summer, they let a better player go in the form of Alexis Sanchez

Speaking on Christian Vieri’s Twitch channel, as reported by FCInter1908, Cassano gave his thoughts on the transfer saga with Inter and Dybala, and questioned whether the Argentine was worth signing for a top club like Inter.

Inter had been strongly linked with a move for Dybala even before it was confirmed that he would be available on a free transfer as he would not be extending his contract with Juventus.

However, the Nerazzurri never pulled the trigger on a move for the 28-year-old, and in the end he finally made up his mind to join Roma instead.

Cassano feels that Inter made their decision not to sign Dybala, however, preferring to complete their attack with a return of Romelu Lukaku and then allowing a player with a similar profile to the Argentine leave in the form of Sanchez.

“Inter kept him on standby, and then took Lukaku and told him to find somewhere else,” he said of Dybala. “With all due respect, he went to Roma for only €5 million net per season when he was asking for €10 million. He’s not a phenomenon.”

“If he’s a phenomenon then why didn’t any top teams want him, not even Arsenal or Manchester United?” Cassano posed. “Inter were never really interested, they made a big show of it only to then sign Lukaku instead.”

“The Nerazzurri let Sanchez leave, who was better than Dybala,” he argued. “Milan preferred to wait two months to sign De Ketelaere, while he moved to a team that finished sixth last season, where he earns wages that are hardly astronomical.”
As far as I know, Dybala is earning more than 5M/season, but anyway.

Issue with Sanchez was that he was not content as 4th or 5th forward, while gaining a high wage and disrupting harmony in the locker room. Inzaghi had to cut him.

then we shouldn't have given him 5 million to leave. He isn't happy being 5th choice then find a new team that will make you 1st choice and pay your wages.

Conte and Sanchez handshakes made no sense especially for a team that is dead broke.

Here's the so-called Interista. This guy is a clown, I remember that he criticized both our treble team and our lastest winning scudetto :lol:

There is no way Inter can afford to sack Inazghi and pay out his contract. So his job is safe.

In any event, winning the Super Coppa will allow our owners and management to claim that our season was a success.

Cassano reaches new levels of retardiness, I see. He recently also said that Mourinho has never been a great coach, but only a good communicator, who knows how to trick the media.
What an idiot .

CASSANO: ‘INZAGHI MUST WIN CHAMPIONS LEAGUE TO SAVE INTER JOB’
Antonio Cassano was by no means impressed with Inter’s victory over Milan and insists ‘the only chance Simone Inzaghi has to save his job is to win the Champions League.’

The Nerazzurri consolidated their status in second place, having already won the Supercoppa Italiana, after beating their arch-rivals 1-0 at San Siro on Sunday.

However, former Inter player and lifelong supporter Cassano has certainly not changed his mind on Inzaghi.

“The only chance Inzaghi has to save his job is to win the Champions League, otherwise Inter will be forced to make a change,” Cassano told Christian Vieri’s podcast BoboTV.

“Aside from the derby and the Supercoppa, he has not done well. Rather than being fired up, if I was in Inzaghi’s shoes, I’d be ashamed. I’d be at -13 from a Napoli side that is weaker than mine and has a sixth of the wage bill.

“He has to take a good look at himself. Last season it was a disaster calmed only by winning two trophies, but this time around those won’t save him again.”
1. Inter do not have funds to transfer the players Inzaghi deserves, let alone replace him
2. Inter have no better options at the moment
3. Cassano is talking blabla for the views count, he is crying for attention just like his entire playing career

Cassano comes up with bullshit very often. He shouldn't be taken seriously anyways. Like other posters said it already, the guy just wants to remain relevant by being contraversional all the time. But too bad he probably doesn't realize how dumb he looks with all the bullshit he says.

The interesting part regarding his Mourinho comments is that coaches are often judged on the silverware they have won. Mourinho can not be questioned in that regard which makes me wonder who Cassano thinks is a great coach. Mourinho's trophies speak for themselves and Cassano's words are the mark of a moron.
