Regardless of how many goals he scores between now and then end of the season, the fact of the matter is that he has offered next to nothing in his second stint at the club.

He was brought in to partner Lautaro and lead our attack. He has hardly played and has failed in every respect. His contribution should not be enough for Inter as a club to pursue anything other than a return to London. Any other decision from management seeking to bring him back at a reduced fee or any on any other basis would be a mistake.

What we all fear is Zhang is gonna push for the renewal of the loan. AFAIK was involved in that move, probably had some connections with Lukaku's agency.

I would start him against Milan, because

1. Džeko could come on in the second half
2. A chance to redeem himself


He really doesn't look good atm, but that's the only chance he has. If he plays good against Milan, he might put himself mentally back on track. If not, fuck it, at least Džeko has a breather.

We need to beat Milan, not f*ck around trying to revive this dead donkey. Who are we going to drop just to start him ? Dzeko who is giving us all he has and quite frankly it's working or our best striker Lautaro ?

Start him against Atalanta in Coppa alongside the grillmaster Correa and rest Lautaro and Dzeko who are the only true strikers in the team, if we lose and get knocked out it's just whatever. We need to hope Milan loses to Sassuolo and that we have a chance to give them another bad loss next week. Look how we struggled to keep the ball in Cremonese's half when Lukaku came on. Now imagine that but with Leao instead of Okereke on the other hand of the pitch....

The logic would be to use Lukaku from the start so we can bring Dzeko in to keep the possession in the end. Dzeko is much more dangerous than Lukaku at the moment. So if we just don't lose to Milan while Lukaku is on, replacing him with Dzeko at 60mins could make us win. With Lukaku it feels hard we can win anything since he's like a pylon there.

With the state of our defence, imo we should absolutely look into replicating the coppa game. Hit them hard at the beginning of the game and watch them crumble as they will put all their hopes in Leao.

We gave Empoli 45 minutes of Correa and we lost, don't do it again if you already know the result, start with the best team and kill the game early.

When Conte and Pintus was breastfeeding him, he was great. But now he has to go and I hope our managment drop any negotions with him/Chelsea and try convince Thuram to come here.

I’ve probably defended him more than anyone here or at least close to it. With that being said it’s becoming very difficult to do so. I can’t comprehend how awful he’s been when he’s actually played. He’s got he’s got what, 4 months left to kick it into gear? I hope he does because I don’t see Dzeko maintaining his level without adequate rest time.

Apart from football-wise objectives, the management might have decided to sign him hoping to increase the sale of t-shirts with his name.

Chelsea is really stupid and have no idea what they are doing. If Inter pays any cent more to Chelsea means we are equally moronic.
It should be on Inter terms, Lukaku to Inter for free and Chelsea paying 50% of the salary. Either that or they can keep him forever.
We also need to take advantadge of this morons, not only shitty French and Portuguese clubs...

I think he owes us another season and he knows it. Hopefully he doesn't start playing well so much so that Chelsea would want to keep him. Then in the summer he should reject every other destination and join us for one more year.

Positive performance. Our attack was going through him in the second half. Continue getting fitter and sharper and deliver what you owe us
