Luciano Spalletti

[firmino]

What trophy? Title race was over since the minute Ronaldo signed for Juve and with all respect - it needs a really challenged individual to believe or think we have a decent chance of UEFA. So the only “title” it remains for Spalletti is the freaking Italian Cup, and as far i am concerned, I’d be much happier with a solid 2nd place than a Italian cup teophy.

So again, what kind of title does this ultimatum refers?


And lets just not jump into Cambiaso talks come on guys, be real. Im tired of readin “he lacks tactical knowledge but he brings smiles back” that shit dosnt have a place in a real football club.

I was against Mourinho because he left us in the gayest manner possible, but after all the humbling sackings i think he will re-evaluate his philosophy of changing clubs and stick to us lnger. Also, its fucking Jose Mourinho man... truth be told, i can say freely that there are better matches for us when it comes to coaches, but i can never say that those coaches are better than Mourinho.

it's about time we raise the bar, for fuck's sake. if no one puts the urgency of winning into the players' heads, they won't care.

asking to win a trophy alone of course won't get us a trophy, but we need the players to feel pushed to go further. otherwise, the fourth spot will be their only goal.

since this is something we haven't heard of in the last 5 years, i can only assume the input comes from marotta. that's the right approach.

yes, most likely only the coppa italia is the realistic goal. so let's go with it.

Dont you think it’s too late now to “raise” the bar?

With this form of ours not gonna be surprised if this shitty Milan team surpassed us in the following weeks, having said this - cant concentrate on the cup when the forth place is not secure, and injuries and form drops from UEFA will follow.

The only “title/cup/trophy” is to retain as third and secure enough points so a nobody like Vecino never becomes a hero and gets to stay another season here.

I didn't watch Henry's performances as a TV pundit on Sky but what I heard about Henry is that he was mostly stating the obvious and wasn't deeply into tactics, in fact, the only in-depth tactical analysis he provided was on Guardiola's Barca and that was because he played there. Gary Neville, for instance, was much more specific and knowledgeable.

Henry also was allegedly very arrogant as a coach in Monaco, he didn't treat players as they expected him to treat them.

I saw once an analyze from Henry on some Man Utd match, and the way he described a goal they scored, gave me maximum cringe. It was like he was talk Ng about some RPG game heroes, a someone with already known and limited attributes, like someone if it had enough “mana” he can do a certain move and you cant stop that.

Limited as fuck. Like mos of us here, i mean like all of us here, critical as fuck, which is not hard to be honest

Fair enough. Hence the word "seemed",it still doesnt take away the example I made that Henry was a horrible inexperienced manager. Under no circumstances should we fire spalletti in favor of cambiasso or any other "inexperienced" managers regardless of how "subjective" and "relative" experience might be.

Just like many of you here, I'm sick of baldie and I hope we either get conte or mou in the summer because that means that we are actually spending money because there is no way in hell either of them is coming without significant reinforcement.

Proving what?

He's above Gattuso on the table at the moment.

Mate, your argument doesn't even make sense. Stop wasting everyone's time.

Let's keep going on circles, so everyone can waste everyone's time.
So, if you're above someone on the standings, you're automatically better coach? Good argument, YOU making a lot of sense now.

I didn't ask you to comment on my post, or give a shit what i'm saying..or agree with me...so i'm not sure how am i so important in your life, that my comments make you waste time. You can simple ignore what i'm saying, and go to your wonderful life, where you make every second count. Stop wasting it in an online forum with people like me.

Sure, I am done.

I have seen many people focusing on the result of the PSV game for our recent poor form but there was also something else that happened around that time. Marotta's hiring by Suning. The first thing Marotta did was giving a vote of confidence to Spalletti which made the coach furious. What if Spalletti has realised he's gone at the end of the season and he has lost his motivation and concentration because of it? Unfortunately, sooner or later players realise these things which could explain their recent performances. Of course i could be totally wrong and this is just another case of Inter's winter curse. Regardless, we're still on par with our season targets. Unless a top 4 finish is at real danger, Spalletti should stay until the end of season and then management can decide how they're willing to move forward.

Spalletti: trophy or Inter exit?
By Football Italia staff

Inter have reportedly told Coach Luciano Spalletti to win a trophy this season or face losing his job.

Spalletti met Inter’s board for a meal on Monday evening, and Gazzetta dello Sport claims there was more than the transfer market on the agenda.

The newspaper writes President Steven Zhang ‘made it clear’ he wanted the Nerazzurri to lift a trophy, with particular emphasis on the Coppa Italia, describing victory over Lazio on Thursday as ‘compulsory’.

Furthermore, former Juventus boss Antonio Conte would be in ‘pole position’ to replace the Beneamata boss this summer, while Jose Mourinho is also ‘above’ the other contenders.

Spalletti only extended his contract until 2021 at the start of the season, but the pinksheet warns ‘this is not a guarantee’ for the ex-Roma Coach to be kept on.

So our management it's still clearly incompetent.

His body language, and the players body language tell me his ship is sunk. All the ''trouble makers'' are staying till the summer for sure. 4th isn't a guarentee anymore.

Yeah marotta and Zhang told some random reporter that they will fire spalletti if he doesn't win a trophy. This is just silly.

I have a feeling his sacking is in three or four weeks, especially if Milan keeps winning.

When certain players don't perform to the standards of some FIF members, they go ape shit, - "SELL THEIR ASS-GET THE FUCK OUT OF THIS CLUB"

When Spalletti chokes, doesn't perform since god know when now, cant put two back to back good games, they go - "WE'RE 3rd, WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT"

Use the same fucking logic then for the players too, we're third, why get rid of them?

Talk about hypocrites.

It's a bit different to rate the coach than the players. Coach isn't there actually playing on the pitch. I think rating coach is about more long-term than just few games.

Bullshit, all those weird subs, 85' subs, and vecino always a starter was a prove that this fucktard is not a long-term coach.

We have become used to mediocre coaches and the coach became our last concern. Milan fired Montella midseason last year and didn't do worse. We should do same with the clueless stubborn coach.

Kinda remind me what is actually a vice president of this club does for Inter.

 

[Bluenine]

If Spalletti fails to turn this season around and finish strongly, I am beginning to get on the "sack the coach" bandwagon. But only if we can replace Spalletti with a proven winner.

No more coaching experiments please.

 

[InterFCAustin]

You giving too much benefit of the doubt, to someone who in 18 months here, hasn't shown any visible progress in terms of a game play, no visible progress in man management, organization, no visible progress in making the right subs and pushing the right buttons...no visible progress of being tough when things get tougher, no visible progress of motivating players etc
The only constant with this guy is, the Mazzarri like excuses...the constant bull-shitting in press conferences, the constant philosopher wannabe attitude...the constant stubbornness of playing his favorite players, despite their shitty form...i mean, can he fix the damn corner kicks for gods sake? at least that...

 

[firmino]

for the months to come, i guess we have no choice but to hope for the best. if our players are smart they will understand that it's in everyone's best interest to give their best till the end of the season. then anybody who wants to leave, is free to go for the right price.

 

[Lui]

In all fairness, can we honestly say that any recent coach has over-acheived with their respective set of players?

I'm sorry...have you seen Milans squad?

1. We have one of the top 10 keepers in the world.
2. We arguably have one of the best CB duos in the league - with one of the best backups on the bench - all NT starters.
3. We have a LB who has won almost all there is to win and played many minutes with the leagues top club.
4. We have 2 world cup finalists.
5. We have a striker who hits almost 30 goals a season regurlaly.
6. We also bought, on the request of the coach, one of the worlds best CM of the last 5 years.

We should be closer to Napoli and Juve.
We should be further away from 4th.
No doubts here.

There were many dropped points that simply should not have happened.
We had some injuries, but we have more depth than others.


Don't confuse ability and form. Spaletti has to control this dressing room. He needs to motivate them. He needs to bring out the BEST in them. Teams do well agaisnt us because they want it more and they're hungrier. Something a coach needs to drive.

If he's working to change that, and not succeeding, then I'm sorry, then you're not the right coach, at this moment.
