Yo mate, apparently you don't even understand what the point was. Your posts are completely out of context to what I wrote, and now you're twisting it to something different. Read my post again and stick to context, because I never said these things you pointed out. I never said Oaktree should invest heavily unnecessary. My point was that they should focus on addressing the issues if they want Inter to remain competitive.

Marotta keeps talking on how Inter is aiming for Champions League as well as Scudetto, which is kinda unrealistic given how our squad is lacking proper backups. You can't go on and chase both Scudetto and CL with 12-13 players.

I never said we need a certain aged player. Whatever the team needs, they should invest, whether it's a young quality player or older experienced player. Stop making everything black and white ffs.

both oak street and Sunning not selling Lautaro was actually really good of them. I mean maybe no big team wants him or can afford him. Atletico paid 90m for Alvarez. if they came with that offer here would either of our owners said ok?

I would have sold every single one of our players if I was sunning to lose the club if that was a choice. I can't imagine it was or they would have been idoitic to lose it.

Villa destroying Man City…. What’s the thought they are going to panic buy big and spend crazy in January?

Come in for Hakan? Since they lost Rodri and went to complete and total shit

I've read a rumor in Bulgarian media that we want Rashford on loan, but with no source mentioned. I hardly believe that this is true.

Zirgzee was subbed after around 30 min for Man U. Most probably he will be available on loan in January. I'd gladly get him here, and get rid of Arna or Correa

At the moment he looks like Aranutovic at best. Same speed and all.
Let's not judge a player based his Man U performances.
Zirgzee is not fast. This is not his strength.

He cant even make a pass lately. He had 33 % when he was subbed, just for reference.
I am judging him on his overall performance even tho I agree Man U is a graveyard for talent of any age now.

Agreed that he shouldn't be completely written off based on his ManUtd stint, but it's not like he was THAT good at Bologna either.

It's just people tend to jump into conclusions quickly and then the very same people will throw these players under the bus because they didn't live up to the hype. There's a bunch of examples on how players make premmature steps on their career and then suffer consequences, or even get more credit than what they deserve.

Zirkzee was very impactful with Bologna, but he wasn't ready for such a challenge. You can't just say hop before you jump.

That is true, but he could be useful for us. And if we can get him on loan with a decent option to trigger, it is a no brainer for me. He could be very impactful as SS, and he can recover his mentality at Inter. Anyway, it seems that Man U are desperate to scapegoat him, so it is an interesting opportunity.

It's normal. His mentality is down in the drain and I've read that he was even crying after being subbed. You cannot expect one to deliver when he is broken on the mental state.
And this apply to everyone not only for football players.

That is exactly the difference between athletes and elite athletes. I expect the elite to deliver and to power through shit or at least show signs of life.
At this point he looks like a very expensive gamble and what if.

It's expensive gamble for Man U, because they are in deep banter era, just changed another coach, there is no real strategy for the club, and they put too much pressure and exceptions on players like Zirgzee.
If we can get him on loan with a decent option, this won't be expensive gamble for Inter. Our environment is perfect, the players are united and Zirgzee will come as a supplementary player, which will allow him to regain his confidence.
Imo, we shall look in those kind of deals as we don't have money enough to buy some star.
And, I'm on favor for such a move, instead of spending 20-25mln on someone like Castro, who is linked to us recently
