I know people give Rana grieve but I think he has the skills to turn into a great defender. He's young for a defenders so there is still hope the light bulb goes on.


I still have in my mind the tackle he made against Bayern Munich on the open field. It was class.

Don't know about you all, but for me Fredy Guarín was the best player in the two games.

Definitely, no doubt about it. In both game he was MOM for me.

Bright spot about the TIM cup, all our "new" players performed well. Guarin,Coutinho,Mbaye and Handanovic. A good sign.

One thing for sure Cuchu sucked even more, sometimes i cant understand the hate towards Chivu, but well they do say some people are blinded by hate.

Its because when Cuchu plays bad, he slows our overall game but each time Chivu screws up, we concede a goal. The second has to tendency to be in our memory in a much stronger way.

But yeah, I complain about Chivu because we had this fucking contract renewal.

Not all. I wasnt impressed by palacio until late in the milan game. He was invisible in the juve game.

wtf did you expect him to do? Dribble past 4 players? You did realize that most of the times he was the only one forward, I think he did find holding the ball, and trying to do smth.

Btw Ranochia will be one of the best defenders , dude just got everything that it takes to be a great defender.

Guarin "the missing link" Hulk, he is going to be one of the best players in this coming season, not at Inter but in the league. Cou will be impressive but he`ll definitely need more than just a year to become what we all expect him to be, a unique world class motha fucka. So I expext nothing more than patience from our managment and the fans to help him mature. I liked Palacio and I think he`s going to be handful just as I predicted. I agree with Najk about Ranno. I think he`s going to be one of the best defenders in the world in 3 years time max.

All in all it was a good performance for a friendly lame trophy. let`s wait for the real deal before judging the ones who didnt perform as we hoped.

Forza Inter!

I liked how we performed in trofeo tim although we were playing with atleast 75% of our best players and juve and milan with most of their youngsters.

Some of our youngster got very valuable good performances agaist big clubs. Like Coutinho´s goal for instance was very important. Not the way he got it but that he scored a goal. It will boost his confidence and it is very valuable for attacking player. Also Mbaye had good games, now he can have chance to become first team regural.

No player caused me any doubts which was good for now. Even Chivu managed to stay out of trouble. That goal we conceded wasnt his fault. He did there what he suppose to do. No way he had enough time to stop the goal. You really dont need to worry about Cambiasso. Once the season starts he will the one you can count on. He has been pretty undervalued here recently. He is master in that DM role he mostly plays and in top of that he scores about 5 goals in a season.

I am more willingly win that so called jinx trophy than lose both games like milan.

I just expect him to be better than Pandev which he didnt show much.

I don't think Rano is going to be that great. I think he will be another one of those players who get terribly overrated now, get HUGE expectations but never live up to them because they simply stay the same. I don't expect him to change. He's already 24, it's not like that's still a very young age at which you can still develop a lot. In three years time he would be 27, almost 'old' in football terms. Just one year younger than Sneijder. I think he'll be mediocre.

Cbs are at their prime from 27-30 years old.Dunno about Rano's future potential but at this age he must be considered young enough with all the time in the world to develop.

You just wouldn't say the same for some other position but clearly not for a CB which his primary characteristic it's experience and that comes only by the time and in our case that means playin time which he should get asap.

A message for everyone going to Celtic vs Inter Milan:

Celtic have just informed me that due to demand from Inter fans, section 120 has now been allocated as a dedicated Inter fan zone. If you already bought tickets for a different seating area and want them switched to this Inter zone, you can ask via email and they will switch you free of charge.

Guys, if you can please send Inter a tweet or a message just showing appreciation for providing the match streamed on youtube. Hopefully they will make more content available online in the future.
