Not just Perisic and Perotti, Inter are looking at Dries Mertens as well as confirmed by Tuttosport:
“Attention. Contacts between the two clubs were made today but the first reply from Napoli was a negative one. Should Napoli not be able to reach an agreement for Maksimovic they could go for Juan Jesus or Andrea Ranocchia.”

Why we are not trying to get vazquez anyway ??
Martens, perisic, perroti are long negotiation
Palermo will ask 40M
Have we already contact palermo about this?
it’s Palermo they’re always milking transfer
Where is the fucken scout team every year i watch teams like sevilla, porto villareal, Southampton get an amazing player for a pack of cigarettes.
Wise moves will be to use the money on Berardi and get quintero from porto (the player is transfer listed) and swap ranochia with a winger from roma
Inter scout is not bad.for example rey manaj and ondrej duda is the proof of their scouting works
Did we sign Duda???
Andreolli leaves,rannochia or juan swap for mertens,who will be the reserve defender?Popa?what a risky decision
Lucas moura and lucas silva please..
Laurentis would never sell to a rival.It would be great if we could get Mertens but i’m afraid we should focus elsewhere
Hope we get Mertens, or other good wingers instead. This is the reason we sold Kovacic. He doesn’t fit in our system. Obviously Mancini wants to play 4-2-3-1. For the CDM positions we got already Gnoukouri, Medel, Kondogbia and Guarin. Gnoukouri and Medel will be focussing on the defensive part while Kondogbia and Guarin will play a more box to box role still there to give balance to the team. Kovacic would have never played on one of these spots because he can’t play in the Medel/Gnoukouri role, and Mancini won’t bench Kondogbia. As for the three attacking positions Kovacic isn’t able to play as a winger, so he has to play as CAM. But for this position we have Jovetic and hernanes who are both better suited for this role, although they fill in this role differently. So there is no place for Kovacic. Ofcourse he is a great talent, but if we can buy two wingers with the money and maybe a leftback, we are better off. I hope on a team like this:
Handanovic
Santon-Miranda-Murillo-Criscito
Kondogbia-Gnoukouri
Mertens – Jovetic – Perisic
Icardi
There is much more flair, speed, creativity and power in this team.
And you would still have Hernanes, Palacio and maybe Perotti on the bench for extra creativity when you’re 0-0 or behind.
If you count the goals this team is able to score you can “calculate” the spot where you will end this season.
Defense together: 7 goals.
The defensive midfielders together 3 goals.
Mertens: 9 goals
Jovetic: 11 goals
Perisic: 7 goals
Icardi: 20 goals
Subs:
Hernanes: 5 goals
Palacio: 3 goals
Perotti: 3 goals
Guarin: 2 goals
Total goals: 70
Goal tallies are up for disccussion.
Juve scored only 72 times last season so this is pretty good statistic. With 70 goals we should make it within CL spots.
Interesting analysis but I’d say the most important factor is not to concede the goals. 1-0 gets you 3 points!
in that case its even better news as inter now have an almost (lacking LB) complete def. lineup 🙂 i think miranda/murillo + Rana will defend well when they start to gel 🙂
Haha yeah, ‘when’ being the key word there, let’s hope that starts from this Sunday! Forza Inter!
Interesting thought, assuming Perisic, Perotti, and Mertens join us.
Well, to be frank i don’t think Icardi will manage as much goal tally as he was last season, as his days of being the primary (should i say the only one capable enough?) goal getter for this team will be gone. Especially should Mancio truly utilize his 4-3-3 formation, as he has neither the pace, nor the work rate to thrive in it (I won’t discount his cunningness and his seemingly flashy brand of football in the 9 yard box though).
He certainly has the potential to be a great facilitator, and intelligent type of striker in the likeliness of Lewandowski (a bit overreaching, i know let’s just hope that he will be one someday).
Still there are many flaws in your analyst first team. First, player who come in Cristico, Mertens and Perisic how to deal with it i think Kovacic money for Kondogbia. Second, Santon as starter? Third, although i like Gnoukouri, there’s no way Mancini would risk play this boy as starter he still inexperience. Fourth, Who’s the captain? and fifth, Mancini always try scheme 4-3-3 or 4-3-1-2 in friendly match, why the hell he want to use 4-2-3-1.
Haha…Gnoukouri was played in the Derby last year straight from the youth squad and he performed well.He’s been the brightest this entire preseason and he wouldn’t start? We pulled out melo deal to make him get some playing time.He wiillvplay alot of games whether as starter or sub.Experience is overlooked when your nerves are made of steel.
Don’t get wrong. I also like Gnoukouri. But transfer still open. I think Mancini want to play Guarin instead Gnoukouri. Maybe Motta come back?
I like your team, but I think you switched Perisic and Mertens natural positions.
Get Nasri..
i heard that we are going for him … is it true?
http://www.football-italia.net/71122/nasri-new-inter-target?
Nasri will rock!
Is he trying to make a mini man city in italy? …..
Just make the transfer count.
We just killed our golden eggs goose to get some kick money to balance our books. We better invest that money wisely because it might be our last chance. Dela is an Ahole, it will be impossible to deal with him, but in my imaginary world we can get Mertens or Gabbiadini and have a killer attacking tiro. I think Mertens is more talented, but he seems to be lazy, whereas Gabbiadiny seem more hungry and that is what we need.
Get Gabbiadini, he’s way better.
Work hard for Mertens. He is quality.
for a good price he is quality and i am sure ADL will not give fair price to us
