Simone Inzaghi

[bubba zanetti]

Please show me where I once idolised Conte? I don't really give a fuck about him. He did a pretty good job while he was here, I'd say 8/10 league 3/10 CL. I'd be open to his return but think he's probably too expensive, moody, and wouldn't succeed again here. I think his career post Juve has been a bit of a disaster except Inter, and I don't support and have never claimed to support any of the other teams he's managed

So please how does that make me idolise Conte?

Stop speaking rubbish.

Tell me, was our scudetto 2021 fluke? Was beelan semifinal of CL fluke? You are the one speaking rubbish.

Just to add: If anyone can have some grievances as to why Inter reached the final instead of them might be Bayern Munich. They had 8/8 wins until City against hard opponents except for Victoria Plzen. But they sacked their coach who brought them those 8 wins so they kind of brought it upon themselves. Anyway, playing Inter, Barcelona, PSG, and City in 8 out of 10 possible games is playing on hard mode tbh.

The rest of the fans/teams have no legitimate claim against Inter's run to the final.

That's the best argument so far.

 

[#NotForMe]

The bet offer is there. If you wanna take it, feel free. I think next year for Inter you will see us regress to our recent historic performance in the CL, eg maybe r16.

Will take up to a €500 bet on it. Let's see how many of you are believers when you have to put your money where your mouth is



To be clear, I don't think the performances individually were flukes. Inzaghi set up a team well to beat those teams. The fluke is that we didn't draw a single "hard" team in that run. No big clubs until the Final. Paying a coach on the assumption of luck of a draw is kinda crazy imho. The hardest part of our CL run was the group.

Put it like this way, do you think Man City got in the final is a fluke if not let's bet 500 bucks and I will bet with some gamble company that offers a 3:1 ratio on the side.

 

[#NotForMe]

Like fluke means pure luck, and even if it was a calculated not fluked strategy that led to the result, doesn't mean we can repeat that again, like have you even every seen a chess game won the same way twice?

How can an Inter fan dislike Inzaghi at this point?

Agreed but in the CL there is always an element of luck. Anybody that drew City last season would have have been eliminated so it was a question of when. We got lucky enough to meet them in the final where over 1 game anything is possible but equally if we met them in the last of 16 and got sent packing early then it would have been an unlucky scenario as it could have been a what if

21/22 is perfect example, we got matched with a Liverpool team that was in incredible form, gave them our all and got unlucky with the red card. We could have went further if we avoided a couple of team but still it comes down to luck.

Tldr: luck is everything in the CL. As good as City we’re they literally got lucky themselves against us

No, I think man city beat a lot of good teams to get to the final

I don't really get what your bet offer is

Do I think city will make the final next year? Who knows. But right now if you drew up a list of teams who are likely to be in the SF next year, many fans would put City and very few fans would put Inter. If you really believe Inter will be there, I pray to God you're correct because I would fucking love that, I just wouldn't bet money on it

So again my offer stands. We don't know who our group is yet, we don't know who we get in r16 etc yet, does anyone feel confident enough - with all the randomness that is implied - to bet on whether we make the CL SF or not?

If I was a City fan or a Real fan or say PSG maybe, I'd happily bet on us having a high chance of being in the CL SF. Yes of course luck, form, and other shit means there are very strong possibilities they don't make it, the same way that those things mean we could make it. But if I were on of their fans I'd bet on it. Will any of you, so happy to sit here and tell me I idolise Conte, I work for the CCP, Inzaghi is the best thing ever to happen to us, will any of you bet on it? I think not

Roflmao, then our triplete was also fluke cause we were out next season against fucking Schalke! Lmao this is ridiculous, go back to finances please

I don't think you understand what a fluke is


The fluke is the draw we had to the CL run. I never said beating Milan in the SF was a fluke. We did that completely fair and square. But that was an easy run to the CL final, compared to the "other half" of the draw table.

No it wasnt easy cause our opponents before playing against us beat PSG, rube, Napoli, Tottenham, Atletico... You whole fluke theory is complete garbage.

so even by your own list of the 'tough' competition theres no City, Real, etc?


Bayern is a great example. The only team from our half of the list who played Bayern were... oh, yeah, us.

Pls remind me how that went - against a club that went out in the QF of the 'other half' of the final run? Oh, right, we lost 4-0 on aggregate across 2 games.

HMM GEEE THANK FUCK WE DIDNT DRAW BAYERN IN THE QF! Thank fuck the draw, which is fully drawn at R16 stage, PREVENTED us from meeting a Chelsea, or a Bayern, or PSG, or City until the final was reached.

Thank you for making my exact point <3



Milan? Same group as Chelsea, They lost to Chelsea 5-0 on aggregate on two losses, Chelsea? Also out at the QF

Benfica? Drew 2-2 on aggregate (2 draws) vs PSG, who went out at R16
Napoli? same group as Liverpool (draw on points), beat Liverpool 4-1, then lost 2-0, Liverpool went out at R16


You've perfectly made my point more clear than I ever could, thank you bubba. Take a like for that post.




My point was previously based kinda on "reputation" of club, infact you've made it significantly stronger - by results in the CL, our side of the draw was basically entirely beaten by the teams on the "other" side of the draw!



To be clear, because I know a whole bunch of people reading this post will "See what they want" and assume this makes me an Inzaghi hater - Inzaghi beat the teams in front of him. He deserves credit for that. But probably 90 out of 100 'rolls' of the CL last season, we would have been out at the QF or R16. I fully expect this coming season we will probably be out... I'd hope at the QF stage? Based on what we know now (e.g. no draw information). If you're more confident about our chances of success, lets place a bet! My point about Inzaghi's salary is we're now pushing him towards a significantly higher salary, when I dont personally believe he'll deliver to justify that level of salary again next season (but as stated, "league performance" is the key decider imho for up to, say, 5mils/net). I will also say, in these circumstances, I think Conte would have screwed the fucking pooch. We'd probably have faced another group, if not R16, exit with Conte, so I do think Inzaghi has "delivered well" against the circumstances infront of him, but I dont expect him to pull off anything like the same level of success next year.


For what its worth, I had a look at some betting sites earlier, we're currently 13th most likely to win the CL, so that is consistent with an R16 exit obviously




Anyway, I've said my point on this repeatedly, if you dont agree, dont understand, whatever, its all good. Enjoy, lets see how next season ends If you want to believe thatgetting to the CL final was purely down to the coaching genius of Inzaghi, and nothing to do with the fact that we didnt have to face any harder teams in the run up, and that if we'd drawn Chelsea R16, Bayern QF, PSG SF, and City Final, we'd have still made the final... be my guest!

I'll say it again - 2009-2010 is a great counterexample. By analogy, we'd have had to beat City, Bayern, and Real madrid in the run to (and including) the final to have a 'comparable' draw to what we had in 2009-2010, e.g. the German league winner, the Premiership league winner, Russian league winner, and the Spanish league winner. We fucking fully deserved to win that CL, and that year I'd have bet we could have beat ANY club in the CL (Not going into the season, dont get me wrong, but at no point was I like... thank fuck for a lucky draw). This year, probably our hardest competition were Milan, lets be honest, who only made the CL this year because of Juve's deduction.

This year, I think we would have potentially lost to Real, we would have lost to City, we would probably lost to Bayern...

Actually under inzaghi we were unlucky against Liverpool and unlucky against City

And went on to win 2 cuppas and 2 supercoppas so this guy might actually be a genius regarding to knockout cups

I dont disagree with you on either of those things. Inzaghi is looking like a pretty good cup coach, lets see how CL goes next season. We were definitely unlucky vs Liverpool, and we definitely could have taken it from City as well. I dont take either of those things away from him.

 

[CafeCordoba]

All this started from the pay raise. How Inzaghi shouldn't be given pay raise.

I don't even know what his salary is atm since he got extension last summer. It wasn't bumped at all? I don't know.

The thing is IMO with his CL run he deserves his raise. No matter what the fuck happened in the league. He made so much money for the club, the pay raise is justified. If we don't make it to semis next season, so what? Coaches are paid for what they've done, usually.

And more than anything, Inzaghi has shown he can handle Inter environment and he can make money for the club. He can even bring in some trophies even if the Scudetto is still missing. Players are getting sold and he makes it to the knockout rounds in CL where the money is.

City was lucky against us, we were better team in that final. Nobody didnt expect that, me either. If that is not overachievement for this club than I dont know what it is. You would love that they trashed us so you could prove that Limone was a clown that just got lucky in the draw. That game proved that Limone made this team tough motherfucker. Defending Suning, and jizzlobbing for Lukaku is ok, I dont care, but stop shitting on the guy that earned this club big chunk of money and was so close to bring us another CL trophy.. You think fucking Bayern could hurt us if they run to us in semis? Are you really serious? Like I said stuck to to finances. And dont type too much when you are dead drunk, like you were in CL final, it doesnt do any good to you.

Dont be stupid. Of course I would have loved it to win in the final. I've been on this forum for 20 years, no one can question my loyalty to the club...

Stop posting stupid shit


And, yeah, way to avoid every single thing I said that points out you completely reinforced my point. Slow clap.


You really think we'd have beaten Bayern in the semis? They beat us comprehensively in the group stages. Of course you never know what will happen, but can you really look yourself in a mirror and say you'd be confident we'd beat Bayern? Lmfao


Your post really shows how clueless you are.

I genuinely dont care which it is. When you post dumb shit in response to a set of questions, you just make yourself look daft.


thanks once again for reinforcing my point for me. I hadnt thought of doing the SF club analysis, and it actually really backs up my point.

You wrote that we lost final cause Limone didnt start Lukaku in a finalLike I said stick to the finances.

 

[.h.]

You wrote that we lost final cause Limone didnt start Lukaku in a finalLike I said stick to the finances.

And I stand by the opinion that I think Simone will regret that decision for the rest of the life. We looked more dangerous with Lukaku on the pitch. He was probably one of the top 3 most in form strikers in Europe at that point in time, and got dropped. Clown fucking decision. Lukaku was 7 goals in 10 starts in the league at that point in time, but instead lets play Dzeko who has 4 goals TOTAL since Christmas. Lukaku in that time, 12 goals.

Anyway, there's no point dwelling on it now, the mistakes have happened and Inzaghi has thrown probably the best chance to win the CL he will ever get in his career. Dont get me wrong, he did well to get there in the first place, but he also fucked it up.


Imagine if Mourinho had dropped Milito to play Pandev at FC for the CL final, lmfao. He basically had the same number of goals in the 2nd half of the season as Dzeko did this year, in the treble season.
