10 years of FIFRegardless of the outcome in the final, I imagine this guy is going to have some demands for the next season if he stays with us.
Because he's certainly going to be in demand himself.

Did a great job. Reaching final of CL with these players. Another Coppa win and another year in CL. With minimum budget. We didnt play such a sexy football like tonight, I cant remember when last time. It doesnt matter how CL final will end. This is David against Goliath. There is nothing to lose. We are already overachievers. Lets try to suprise those PL cunts.

Great turn around to the season….not too sure if we could have fought for the title against Napoli anyway…. It was their year.
Great work on changing tactics to get us out of the bad form… good to see there’s more structure to the tactics not just go out there and be free…. It worked last year to an extent.
Seems like now everyone ones know what to do and when and using players to their strength.
Only thing I can complain about is the shitty decision on subs and asllani minutes.
Let’s see if can pull of a masterpiece against city.

10 years of FIFDon't get your hopes up. Even if he lose the final 10-0 he has overachieved by reaching the CL final.Good season, so he is deserved to stay next season. Unless the record of heaviest humilimation in the CL final is broken.
If we still keep top4 as Juve penalty is somehow revoked ofc

10 years of FIFOverarchieve or underarchieve doesn't matter. History is history. People will remember that forever like Roma two times 0-7, not given a shit they were quarters or semis or excuses how strong ManU was or whatever.

10 years of FIFSuper interesting to see his choices for Torino match.
One would think that the whole bench etc should play and all the first guys shouldn't play a minute.
But then I thought, if main guys don't play at all, it would be 2 weeks without game time for them in the CL final. City is playing a meaningful game week from the final (FA Cup final next weekend).
Then there's obviously the injury fears. I would def restrict Barella and Calhanoglu from playing, maybe small minutes in the end or something. It feels those guys are absolutely crucial and their playing style is so demanding that injury scare is always there (even though Barella isn't too injury-prone?).

Most Passionate MemberWell, history is a bit blurry there since that was 7-1 and 6-2
They also lost 6-1 to Bodo/Glimt in the season they won, do people remember that or do they remember that in the end they won the tournament?
I don't disagree that heavy final losses are there forever. Italy losing to Spain 4-0, Brazil losing 3-0 to France, Barcelona losing to Milan 4-0 despite being considered favorites and so on, so you're right there. A heavy loss is going to be a huge stain.

Best Overall PosterGuess people forgot Zhang words after Euroderby
Inzaghi isn't gonna demand anything. That's why Lotito loved him and was so pissed when he lost him to Inter and Zhang never considered firing him and wants to extend his contract even further. He's perfect for owners who don't want to spend money.

Well people(not just Inter fans) will remember that we played final. Everyone remembers finalist in CL. EL not so much. I remember every team that played final since I started watching CL, since 1992. CL final is a big game and everyone remembers that. And whole world is watching this. Winning scudettos and Coppa's only remember fans and people that follow Seria A. This is not Seria A of 90s anymore. CL final right now>>>Seria A winners. For promotion for club. So this is a big thing for Inter and it is over achievement, a massive one, and club should try to capitalize from this. I agree we should try to avoid humiliation. But hey, beelan destroyed Barca's dream team in 1994 final who were favorites in that match. If we somehow avoid to lose more than 3 or 4 null Its wont be disaster. They are big favorites in this one. No one give us any chance in this one.

10 years of FIFHe is quite perfect indeed. Despite all that he brings in trophies. Not yet Scudetto, but if he's given SOMETHING in the summer, I think we can do it next season for sure. While competing at CL simultaneously.

10 years of FIFNostradamusMost Passionate MemberOther coaches in his situation (championship contenders + deep CL run) don't have just 13 reliable outfield players for the rotation.
I know his rotation isn't ideal, but if we had a proper backing and ambitious owners, we'd be seeking to replace Gagliardini with Milinkovic-Savic, Skriniar with Scalvini, Lukaku with Hojlund, Dzeko with Firmino, Asllani with Frattesi, Bellanova with Lazzari and D'Ambrosio with someone like Bensebaini.
Ironically, apart from some transfer fees, our salary budget wouldn't necessarily increase here. Or at least by much.
But in our situtaion we'll be lucky if none of our current core doesn't regress (age + fitness concerns) and if we add at most 1 extra reliable player in the rotation. Yet expectations would remain the same. Scudetto challenge and deep run in Europe.

10 years of FIFPeople will remember what they can or want to remember. Doesn't change the fact that Inzaghi has overachieved by reaching the final.

10 years of FIFIf we win, some people will remember how Simone miraculously led us to CL victory despite all the financial trouble we had and some people will remember how "lucky" we were lol
None of us will care about that if we win. The others will seethe, but it's so insignificant and pathetic that it doesn't matter.
