Inter have once again increased their bid for Antonio Candreva, prior to Piero Ausilio’s departure to the United States. Sky Sport report that the latest offer is €20m plus a further €2m in bonuses. Lazio president Lotito does not intend to accept less than €25m but could be persuaded due to a lack of other offers. Meanwhile the player’s will is vital and the indications are that Candreva’s desire is to join Inter.

Candreva is the missing piece. I hope that JJ’s transfer and Chinese acquisition left us enough money for getting him without making sacrifices. We NEED a strong bench to fight for 3 cups.
Subs (in the effectiveness order):
Striker: Eder, Palacio
Winger: Biabyani, Eder, Palacio,
Mids: Brozo, Medel, Melo, (Gnoukori MUST be loaned out, he deserves first team experience)
Central D: Medel, Rano, D’Ambrosio
D backs: D’Ambrosio, Santon, Nagashit, (Loan Dodo to Samp)
100% agree
That midfield is entirely too weak.
Also Jovetic shouldnt play AMC, he has shown more than once that he sucks in that role. He doesnt have the brain to distribute the ball.
swap jovetic with banega and replace him with medel/brozo
More or less your formation is sound. Except the banega and jovetic factor, to which banega must be an attacking midfielder and kondogbia could have either medel/Melo as partner. And if inter wanted a more attacking and balanced approach from the dmf then he he could put kondogbia with brozovic.

Swap Jovetic with banega and buy a proper DM..
Mancini’s two man midfield pivot tactic can not be trusted if you dont have a proper well all-around DM seating infront of the defence. e.g. cambiasso, or viera
All of you guys asking to swap JOJO and Banega. I don’t know whether you guys have watched the pre-season games or not. But I have to tell you that JOJO has been our BEST player. He along with Miranda are in another class. We NEED to keep him in the starting line-up. Maybe Mancio could play 4-2-2-2. The problem with 4-2-2-2 is the fact that Mancini gets EXTREMELY cautious, and start Melo-Medel as our DM pair. Which is a disaster. Melo is done, and I’m a fan of Medel but he does not have the neccessary creativity and shooting ability to pose danger to the opposition.
I hate the way we are signing players. Show them the money and bring the player in ffs. This “negotiating” is a pain in the ass and the only thing we are getting from it is bad reputation. Who cares about 2 million euros difference? Are we Inter or Cagliari? Splash the fking money and let the player join for summer preps. Only thing we are doing is wasting time.
I agree it sucks they cannot just make the bid and sign the player so he can practice with us. But we have to understand Inter are under FFP and have to monitor how much we spend. Think of it like this, you have $300 dollars to last you 1 week, do you splash all your cash at one time the second day into the week, or try to see how much you can save and spend while budgeting the $300 dollars so you make it through the whole week?. If inter had it their way I am sure they would of made all their signings by now like majority of other teams.
Like we did with Hernanes?? A wopping 16m loss over 18 months?!!
We are the “new” Inter. The golden Vieri, Crespo like deals are over. We need to do smart deals if we want to be back to the glory deals.
Patience is virtue my friend
i really hope we are lowballing because of the whole coach-situation. would be amazing to see the moment after mancini’s gone we splash the cash for Candreva and Witsel/Biglia
I’m guessing Ausilio is still hoping that Sassuolo will fuck up in LE and will be more eager to sell Berardi. Plus Candreva already already turned down Napoli and stated he wants to leave. Lazio know they have to sell him, so we have leverage.
