Very well put. Thank you.I see some of us fail to comprehend that just because we think Management has done it in improper fashion, especially on the timing means that we side-line on Icardi. That's not the case here, brothers. I believe no one here is against stripping off Icardi's captaincy. Disciplining is one thing, strategic decision and long-due consequences must be taken into account as well. Because on this case, it goes hand-in-hand. Some of us are concerned how is it gonna be on the offensive part of our play? Has Management taken this into account? Is Spalletti prepared for this consequences? And what's his solutions, particularly mentioned above, for the remaining season? The second one is regarding his market value. It is imperative that his value will be decreasing and by the end of the season it could reach, estimately 50-60mil due to his declining performances. Who is going to replace him by then? Other clubs, knowing Inter is badly in need of striker, will have higher leverage on the summer. These are two major consequences that I'd like answered by Management and Spalletti on the presscon.
Now, I'm not side-lining Icardi here because if you see things clearly and objectively, then Marotta had all the good reasons in the world to decide this right now although preferably on June. In Marotta's head "What the fuck were this people thinking when they had all the chance to make something right and on the right momentum?". Because if he waits, then there's a chance more prolonging damage caused by Wanda trash-talking Inter about the contract renewal. I see he's been patient about this and even his patience has limit. He came here for a change and he actually showed it to us. I can see why it is the right thing to do and that I'm also glad to hear that the stakeholders are involved on this decision.
Because the damage has been done then the consequences shall be perceived.
One can only wish that this storm would pass and better yet that Icardi could put this things behind him and consider the stripping off captaincy as a whip for him to become a better player and better personality.

Just a couple points in the paper today.
1. These words said by Wanda started everything. “I wish that the club could protect Mauro more because nasty things have come out from within. Goals? He had little service by the team. Instead of new contract, I would prefer Inter to sign someone that can give him five good balls a game.”
2. Management and Spalletti told Icardi about the decision face to face. 15 minutes after, came the official announcement.
3. Icardi was extremely upset, in rage, leaving training ground in the afternoon, slamming his car door.
4. Icardi has been eating by himself at training ground, practically isolated from the team.
5. Inter will decide if they need to fine him because of internal rules violation. His presence against Samp is also in doubt.
Shame nobody is stupid enough to spend 110 on him
Whatever the changes management wanted to implement, they should have done it in summer. Not sure how this is going to help unless every player don't like Icardi and are boosted by this news.
Few always blame Wanda but it looks like Icardi is just hiding behind his wife/agent. Wanda is not Mendes or Rioala or some super agent who have 100s of clients and experience, she is just Icardi's agent and whatever she says is something that is discussed and agreed by both. That interview about teammates is just shit and even if it's true, that's not something you tell in public. Dressing room should be something else when players listen to that and talk to Icardi.
Btw, Marotta has balls of steel. He makes decisions that are so tough to make.
Almost guaranteed that even if Icardi took a moment to reflect on himself, Wanda would speak for him, attacking Inter with more nonsense
Yes but I think it's far more likely Wanda is the devil on Icardi's shoulder whispering into his ear and leading him into these things.
:
Yeah but it's Icardi's career, his teammates and his team isn't it?
Agents are there to do player's dirty work and right now that's what she is doing. There is nothing wrong in Icardi feeling he should be paid more than he is on, but the path they chose is just wrong.
