Just to make myself clear i don't really rate Bellanova. I don't think he's ready for Inter, he's pretty raw and he needs to go elsewhere on loan and work on his game. But the club decided to spend 10m on him for better or worse (worse imo). If these guys never get playing time they will never improve. Also he's one of the few in the squad who has speed and kinda a decent cross (in his good days). He could be useful when you're searching for a goal in a pitch where you play a lot with crosses. Bringing in D'Ambro doesn't really offer anything anymore. He used to be that impact sub player with goals and clearances in crucial moments but he can't do it anymore. His last goal was in September 2021. He has struggled a lot with injuries and he said after his last game against Udinese that he played with pain. He was a great soldier for the club but his body just can't cope with defensive duties anymore. He's done.

If you don't trust Bellanova just finish the game with Darmian-Dumfries duo on the right or bring in another midfielder and switch to a back 4.

As for Inzaghi, for me the most worrying issue is this part:



If the coach admits he doesn't know how to motivate players in matches against lesser opponents then we have a problem.
Fair point about Dumbo. As for Inzaghi, thats not something I'd be too vocal about in the media, he's just put out there that he's not the man for the job. But even world class coaches struggle with the same. Klopp and especially Simeone. That's why you need champions on the pitch, to will the team forward in difficult moments ie Casemiros at Man Utd. When our hardest working and most motivated player is consistently Hakan, then we have a problem.

If Porto put us out he should be immediately shown the door. What is he doing that another manager couldn't be doing for us right now? Nothing. Fed up with this loser.

Losing in the league has become acceptable.

We're still fighting for top 4 spot, there's a higher chance that we achieved that by sticking with him than by hiring any random names caretaker.

Is there?? We should not be in a top 4 fight and we are with this clown. A competent manager has it under no doubt with this inter team in this league

looking trash names like D'Ambrosio, Lukaku, Correa, De Vrij etc, it's impossible to win scudetto shit with these players.

Nobody is asking him to win Scudetto against this mighty Napoli form (lol..what, 18pt after 25 rounds?!?). But a solid performance against the rest. As horrible as Milan says it enough.

People here blamed Lazio squad quality to excuse for Inzaghi...but the difference between Inter's and Lazio's is not sufficient if the coach himself is stubborn and not willing to change. Inzaghi was and is always a one-trick pony. He can setup a smooth game flow but dunno how to release a stuck. When the other coach gets his trick the match is over.

New Gasperini I would say. It's not a coincidence he is the only coach among the tops never wins a Scudetto. Just his level.

I’m actually shocked with the amount of people NOT calling for this guys head. What a sad, sad state of affairs.
It's because many people see the main issue is not him. You would see more #Conteout hastags in his Scudetto winning season than you could ever see #Inzaghiout in his both seasons here. The squad is getting worse every season. Several of our stars and starters are leaving, were/are injured or off form and there is zero hope the owners can invest in the team or even show amy sign of improving the team. Sure Inzaghi is partly to blame for the results, but he's not the main issue.

Twitter was full of Inzaghi Out yesterday. Even those who defended him realised his big limitations.

At this point of the season, sacking wouldn't be reasonable anyway. But it should be definitely considered in the summer. Analysis needs to be made after the season is done.

Let's just hope we get rid of the Chinese. I don't see them starting a new project.

Italian coaches are known have limited tactics, depend too much on individual brilliances. it's not surprising Inzaghi is one of them, depends too much on endless crossing and inshallah.

but imo Inter squad is the main issue here. horrible squad so far. no creativity, brilliances, not agile enough, too many jogging and overhyped shit. even international caliber like Tuchel, Guardiola, Ancelotti, Klopp get PTSD to try bringing scudetto, two stars shit with this squad.

It's too early for that comparison, but anyway:
Conte's champion season we got 91 points. Next season with Inzaghi we had 84, Wich is 7 less and is quite normal because the team got weakened. Now we have 47 points with 14 rounds to the end. Which means total of 89 points provided that we win all of our remaining fixtures. Something that we know cannot happen. Let's assume (optimistically) that we win 60% of our games and tie the others (no more losses). This will give us total of 77 points, which is with 7 less than last season. Following the trend, it seems that with Inzaghi, Inter is regressing a lot every season. And if stay positive and assume that we gonna make it in top 4 this season, it looks like the next one we will fight for 5-8 place with this pace.

He won't. Simply because CL quarter-finals was never target so gettting eliminated from Porto won't have such a big impact on Inzaghi. Target was always top 16 or at least fighting for it. Target has already been achieved in CL. Anything more is just a bonus.

It's the results in the league that could be proven costly for Inzaghi's fate at Inter. Like Cafe says, it doesn't make sense to fire Inzaghi now. It's too late for a new coach to have a serious effect on the team and results aren't that bad to go for a nuclear option. Unless we go on a losing streak or Inzaghi completely losing dressing room he will finish season at Inter. The discussion is about how we move forward past this season. With or without Inzaghi.

I don't think just a top 4 finish will be enough for Inzaghi to stay for next season. It will also matter how we achieve it. For example if we barely make it to 4th ala 2017-19 or we finish behind Roma i could also see him getting fired.

Yeah the record is quite alarming.

It's as if Inzaghi simply cannot handle the whole season. Last season we had this drop of form in mid winter which ended up costing us the Scudetto. Now we're having the same issue with the problem being we fucked up so bad the start of the season that it will be impossible to get the same points as last season. Since last season we went on a huge end of the season, only losing that one Bologna match but winning matches around it like crazy. Doesn't look like we have the capability to do that this season.

The main issue with Inzaghi is not his tactics or even subs, it's his disability to keep the team motivated week in week out. We have suffered a lot from inconsistency in his two seasons here,. Even for the Pazza Inter standards we've been way too inconsistent and he has failed to fix this issue.

7 loses in the league so far is unaccetable. Even though I party blame him for this but he still has to find a way to fix this and not just talk about it.

I get this. I do. But I just don't think losing 7 games out of 24 with this team should be allowed. That's serious failure. If juve weren't docked points we'd be in a real struggle.

We are in track to lose 10 games this season. The goals have dried up. Our play has become so stale. We're incredibly inconsistent. I can't support him anymore.

Inter's problem is bigger than Inzaghi. I see no point in firing him when the owners are incapable of replacing him with someone better. Moreover, no better coach will accept taking the Inter job while knowing beforehand that the owners has this agenda of losing 1-2 key players every season.

While acknowledging Inzaghi's limitations, I insist that we should keep him until someone else buys the club and start a new project all together.

I say we give him one more season unless he misses out on CL qualification.

No need to start a new project during Suning's last year.

"competent manager" (who are they? Tuchel, Enrique, pochetino?) most likely won't accept mid season job offer. Best case scenario you'll get the likes of di francesco or gattuso which I'm not sure will be a better option than inzaghi.

This, wholeheartedly agree. Broke ass owner with no vision or plan B (other than selling best player every season) and ancient director whose only success is by managing club with the most money in the league are bigger problems than inzaghi.
Unless inzaghi fucked up our CL spot, there's no point in replacing him. Knowing marotta & his track record with appointing manager, we can be almost sure that inzaghi replacement will be another "unexciting safe option" average/decent Italian coach which isn't guaranteed to be better than inzaghi.
