Not only is that just Conte's nature but we all know he came here on certain grounds that Inzaghi currently does not stand on with management. We actually don't know anything about what the management expects of Inzaghi or what he expects from them.

To be honest, I am impressed that amongst all the chaos and rumours, that we have heard absolutely nothing from our coach. He is just putting his head down and and quietly trying to go about doing his job. In the circumstances, I have nothing but respect and admiration for him.
I mean in all fairness he doesn't have the name or pull that Conte has to demand all those things. But yea, let's hope he can just focus on doing his job.

Sure it's great he does not moan to the press, but to me it's clear that Inzaghi's lack of authority in his personality was a huge contributor to Lukaku's demise.

I don't really think the ownership respects him as much as they respected Conte, and therefore any, if there even were any, protests from Inzaghi would be shrugged off.

Conte did us a favour by joining us - we're doing Inzaghi a favour by letting him coach us. At least that's how I think tthe ownership views the situation at its core at least.

Inzaghi barely met Lukaku, so I don't know how his "lack of authority" contributed to his leaving?
I'm not talking about the relationship between Lukaku and Inzaghi, but rather that between Inzaghi and the owners.

Inzaghi does not strike me as the type of coach who puts his foot down, or if he does, the gesture will not be taken seriously. '

If Conte was our coach still I would bet that he would have voiced his dissatisfaction with this transfer, which would either not make it happen or increase the transfer sum. Though it is a moot point because Conte probably resigned because he got whiff of the cleansing taking place now.

Inzaghi seems willing to make do, and that can be a good thing or a terrible thing.

I don't understand why you compare Conte to any other coaches.

Any self respected person would recognize the difficulties he's facing and try to get with them.

It's only Conte who can work only work in ideal laboratories standards. When he spots a setback to his job, not only that he quits, he also actively adds to the problems. Look at his time at Chelsea, he gave up yet refused to leave and even brought it to the court. We also had to pay him 7m so he can fuck off. Yes, I understand his mind is so set on winning and winning alone. But if you can't continue due to uncontrollable circumstances, be self respected and resign. There was no reasons to pay him to leave other than knowing he would actively sabotage the club further which he had done before.

Look around, Zidane, Ancelotti, Mourinho, Klopp, etc... all have to deal with set back before. They are all CL winner calibre coaches, none of them behaves in any way close to Conte.

So you're saying that the owners are cunts that take advantage of Inzaghi?

Basically my gripe with Inzaghi is how he's dealt being lied to, hence the comparison to Conte. I don't necessarily disagree that Conte demands perfect conditions to perform, but I think that his hypothetical reaction to the lie that Hakimi would be the only big name to leave would've caused the ownership to act differently - instead of what seems to be the case with Inzaghi.

There are nuances of course, as in some cases Inzaghi's restraint is more beneficial to potential outbursts. In the end we will see, but as Glass Box said so eloquently, my feeling is he's treated poorly because he let's them treat him poorly.

One thing we need to also consider is there was no promise of only one big name sale.

Actually if I remember correctly it was Marotta who brought the news of big name sale (of course because why the owner himself would bring any bad news), but he didn't specify it will be definitely ONE big sale, but hopefully there will be only one big sale.

Corriere della Sera (respectable Milanese paper, not to be confused with that Roman toilet paper named Corriere dello Sport) reported that Zhang had told the management that all the big offers for any player will be evaluated. We can make a conclusion here that what Marotta told to the public was basically him hoping there won't be many big offers for our players because he fears the owner will just hit the button and sell if the offers are big enough. He just told that in a way which concealed the horrible truth behind all this.

Fully agreed, a cunt posed as a gentleman. Still no comparison with Conte.
I never got that impression from Klopp. He's one of few coaches, who engage the press and only really complained about the schedule of games EPL and Champions along with International matches so tightly scheduled. Mou, bless his heart, is the best copy cause he attacks the press, refs and his own players. Pep dealings are uneventful because he despises the press and generally says nothing. Oly's comments are useless cause he doesn't understand the questions. Spaghetti understood the questions, his answers never really addressed them. As for Conte, he's in his own league.
If Inzaghi is a cold fish, so be it, Inter really doesn't need for more drama.

Meh, either way we all wanted him gone if Conte was going. And nobody believed Hakimi would come here, just be happy we had the chance to watch him for 1 season.

What is Inzaghi supposed to say? He just got the job, financial trouble, players being sold left and right (best players, not the deadwood), a shitcoin token is it (?) as a main sponsor on the shirt, etc etc you can make a long list of what's wrong with this club right now but what's the point? What do you expect him to do pull a Gattuso? :LOL: If dude says anything at this stage i.e. complains about the slightest thing, the MGM and co get mad, the players 'loose faith', the fans may even tell him to shut the fuck up cuz no one wants your opinion anyway. This is polidicks, goes beyond the assumed powers of a 1 month coach. If anything, what Inzaghi is probably saying (in his head) is "Man I thought I left Lazio and came to Inter, but what's the fucking difference?".

what i can see from the pre-season Inzaghi has transformed our display quite significantly. he managed to find a way to make our CM in a goal scoring opportunity and more threatening. the midfield looks promising with nice passings. hopefully we can see a much better dispaly when the season starts.

Yea, I've seen more vertical passes between the midfield and forwards in last 2 matches than all season under Conte. It's friendlies, against Serie B opposition, but still.
