I'm bored of brainwashed sheep living in denial; without Calciopoli, Inter wouldn't have won a Scudetto since 1989. Our policy doesn't work, as our recent failing have shown. Yet you all defend it, like it's the way towards a prosperous Inter. That Juventus team that was 'fixing games' had 8 players in the World Cup final of 2006; was Moggi fixing International games as well? That team was captained by Cannavaro, a player we swapped for Fabian Carini 2 years earlier. Another element of that cheating Juventus team was Ibrahimovic, a player who practically won us 3 Scudetti single handedly before his sale financed the signings of Sneijder, Milito, Motta, Eto'o and Lucio.
Factoring all of that in, if you still believe we didn't win Scudetti before then because Moggi fixed games then you may as well give up now.

Our management has long been moronic, that is the reason for our relative mediocrity outside of Calciopoli. The key is to learn from it and embrace the formula of those successful clubs like United, Bayern and Barcelona, who all had durable eras of success with a core of domestic players. The Internazionale concept was to incorporate foreigners alongside Italians, not replace them. To make matters worse, our overly-cosmopolitan approach has seen some of the finest Italian talents pass through Inter only to be let go cheap and flourish elsewhere. Pirlo, Cannavaro aside, Bonucci has more Scudetti to his name than anybody in our squad and Mattia Destro was statistically the most efficient attacker in Italy last season. Giulio Donati is one of the best fullbacks in Germany, yet we're stuck with Jonathan. These players should be representing our colours, they grew up in them. Domenico Berardi is openly and Interista, yet we were too busy chasing Botta and Laxalt to challenge Juventus for his signature.

Luckily, it appears Thohir and Ausilio value our next generation and have got them good loan spells with decent buy-back options. The likes of Benassi, Bardi, Di Gennaro, Crisetig and Bonazzoli leading the next generation of Inter alongside the likes of Icardi and Kovacic would be beautiful. It's those kinds of identities upon which greatness is forged.

How exactly is it valid? INTER were the most successful club for the first four years after calciopoli. Juventus' three best players are French, Chilean, and Argentine despite all the Italians they have in their club.

There is an exactly 0 correlation between having more Italians on your club and you being successful. Look at the rosters of the bottom table clubs..they're chalk full of Italians. If he wants to tell us that we need a better youth system, fine, but the BS he constantly spews about this club needing more Italian players to be an elite club again is ridiculous.

The aftermath of Caciopoli lasted 4 years, in that time Juventus adopted an 'Internazionale' policy, signing the likes of Poulsen, Thiago, Diego, Melo, Amauri, Andrade, and they failed. Then they rediscovered the old Moggi principles, and build a team with a core of Buffon, Barzagli, Bonucci, Chiellini, Pirlo, Marchisio, Matri, Quagliarella plus quality foreigners like Lichtsteiner and Vidal and won 3 Scudetti. No fucking coincidence.

Having world-class players doesn't guarantee trophies, ask Real Madrid, Juve won because they cheated, they could easily get those world-class players because they were at the top consistently, they were at the top because they cheated. And they were cheating for a very long time, not just the seasons which titles were taken away from them.

Also that so great Juve team won shit in Europe AND cheated a LOT for a long time to win in Serie A, so I don't know how great they really were.

I do agree that Calciopoli made things a lot easier for us, but it's not our foul that other teams get justly punished for breaking the rules, if anything Juve's punishment was pretty mild. Actually I would say we would have been much more successful during the 90s and 00s, if other teams weren't cheating so fucking much, because anyone who was following Serie A during those years knew it was fucking ridiculous and totally out of hand.

No fucking coincidence.

Matri and Quaqliarella were hardly the core of that team, Juve started buying quality players some of which happened to be Italian. You're saying that we should buy a team of Poli's and sprinkle in some foreigners instead of just buying players based on their actual ability rather than their nationality.

 

[ManchesterInterista]

The best individuals don't make great teams. If it did, we'd have won the lot in the 90s and early 00s. Don't forget than Milan, Lazio and Roma also won Scudetti in that era, and we bottled it in the final game of 2002. Our problem was we had too many mercenaries. Ronaldo was arguably the greatest raw talent ever, but he was a mercenary.

Matri, Quagliarella and Pepe all player their part for Juve. We'd turn our noses up at such players but they're the kind of players you need to succeed. Poli is back in the Italy squad, another who should have been given time here but we wouldn't pay the peanuts Samp requested, yet we bought Guarin that summer.

People on here seemingly forget that for most of our history, we have had teams full of Italians and our players have represented Italy with distinction.

I've gone ahead and highlighted everything that contradicts you're saying.

Btw, Matri and Quagliarella leading Juventus to scudetti?

 

[Uncommon]

/ Cal is right tbh.

 

[Cal]

The man's an arse, but there's no need for that tbh

 

[wera]

.. but as interista you should say Inter is the most successful club in Italy ... EVERYTIME... if not then you should go check your brain cause I think there something wrong there ...
.

that's such a gloryhunter thing to say

 

[Goldenboyv88]

i think that we will not buy Bonaventura... our last money will be spent for a striker and our market will end so...

 

[chiktikka_fastpaws]

that's such a gloryhunter thing to say

Well,,, maybe I was laying it too thick
But in my defense I would say that I was replying too a crazy post

 

[Pravesh]

I came here to get some info regarding the link to Bonaventura and I see posts which do not belong in this thread. :S

Rumours say we might get him tomorrow.

 

[DARi0]

I have spotted Giacomo's talent for years and he was really close to being bought by milan in the past.

I would be really really happy if we could bring him here, he's a smart lad with good footballing IQ - you need that in Italy.

I never saw any asking price in the media though. Anything under 8m would be great! Loan + option to buy would be perfect.

 

[nutsncider]

i really hope this one happens!!!

No fucking coincidence.

Agreed with everything except the last paragraph. Right now juventus are taking advantage of an absolutely terrible serie A. Their return to building a team on domestic talent is not the reason they have won. Pogba Vidal tevez lughtsteiner asamoah. None are from Italy. And barzagli and bonucci are easily replaceable. They are the best team in serie A. It has nothing to do with the fact they've reverted to playing more Italians. Inter is in the same position if we kept bonucci and destro. We have a striker comparable to destro. And bonucci is not a difference maker. At least not a positive one. Juventus just happens to have the only three competent Italians in serie A. (Buffon chielini Pirlo (who is on his last legs) we can't talk as if juventus is just sprinkled with foreign talent.

 

[wera]

So Bonaventura comes when we sell Guarin, but who will come instead of Alvarez?

With Bonaventura, we have a good 3men midfield in any combination. Not bad.

 

[Goldenboyv88]

bonaventura could be a good replacement for hernanes or kovacic, but we absolutely need a top player forward... Ausilio, buy Lavezzi please!

 

[kova9]

We can lock this one too.. He signed for Milan.
