Inter manager Roberto Mancini talked to the media after Inter’s 1-1 draw against Estudiantes last night. Reporters were of course curious about his future with the club. Here is what Mancini had to say about it:
“I’ve never thought of resignation, nor have I ever said that I am going to leave. I am always here to work and give the best I can. I want to improve Inter, I hope it is the same for other people.”
“Candreva is a Lazio player, he is not under contract with Inter and Icardi did not play because of a problem in his shoulder. Risking him would be nonsense.”
“I am the manager, Thohir is the president. I don’t have to be happy for his words.”
“Today [yesterday] we played very well. We could score three goals in the first half, but we slowed down in the second half. I had no replacement left a part from youths and senior players were a bit tired. I am sorry because we don’t have enough players and that’s a problem because the preseason has been very tiring so far.”

This guy is pathetic! You’re not a english type manager, but just a coach! If you don’t know, you have to deserve contract renewal, that’s not Christmas present, because you was good boy! Do you think, that you deserve to be the coach with biggest salary is Serie A? Be a men for once in your life and if you’re not happy with the situation, say it loud, pack your bags and stop whining!
I actually went to the game and had a great time.
I thought Inter actually played pretty good and had a lot of scoring opportunities. Estudiantes didn’t really have any scoring chances until the headed goal near the end of the 1st half.
The refs were pretty bad and didn’t really call any fouls. There were at least 6 handballs by Estudiantes that they didn’t call.
I agree by the second half they were starting to look fatigue but still made chances to score. The youngsters also showed a lot of promise and could be something in the future.
I am happy with the way we played as and I didn’t really think we would get far in the tournament anyways as we don’t have all our player to. I’d say we need to work on defending set pieces because we left a guy unmarked in the box, probably Rano’s fault lol jk.
I’d really like to see how we look once we have our full squad then we can start making decisions on whether Mancini has done a great job. Although I like to believe we could have finished 1st last season I think 4th was a pretty reasonable spot considering Juve, Roma and Napoli.
With the new players we just got I think we can pose a greater challenge for CL or even the scudetto. I think we only need a couple more players and we’re set. We have to be more consistent and having a play maker on the team will get us goals. At this point I don’t think getting rid of Mancini is a great idea. I’d say lets keep him for now and see where we stand in January. If we are in a good position i’d say keep him, if not then we should get a new coach in the summer as this will give the players time to adjust to a new play style. Also only its Simione
I know most of the Inter fans want to get rid of Mancini. But I’m sure as hell changing the coach at this stage of preseason does not help our odds for CL. We need to stick with Mancini, he certainly is not the best coach in Italy but he is good enough to deliver CL. When he does his duty we kick him out and hopefully will get Simioni
these reports of manchini leaving, icardi pissed, etc are really starting to piss me off.
Manchini is a good coach good luck getting top players with any other coach besides simion to come to inter. The games are friendly i dont expect them to play at there top level because they could get hurt.
People need to relax. We do not have unlimited money to spend. FFP isnt whats holding us back, inter keeps claiming they need more time or players to fix there issues, when the real issue is the players are lazy and not motivated.
I dont care what anyone says thorhil is a fucking cunt. Has no knowledge of how to work with a big club like inter, we need him to stop dicking around to make more money for him self and china.
“champions league is our goal” no it should be your priority and in order to meet it you should be doing EVERYTHING to bring in the players your coach who you “believe in” needs to do so, now im not saying pay 20mil for yaya cause thats dumb.
Stop dicking around and close some deals. Stop making empty promises to inter fans, and please for the love of god help manchini out he knows his shit. fourth place with our team as it stand was miracle. biabi, dodo, nagashit, d’ambozo, carizopleaseleave, and oh god rano must leave. they are not first team for a club that whats champion league.
Mancini has gotten what he wanted for last season and he failed.
Being 4th place is a failure not a fucking miracle with our team !
I watch all 38 Inter games on Serie A, and team performances never looks amazing, few of them is good, more of them is luck, and most of them is disaster. He always late to make a sub, play the mediocre player but save the good player on the bench. What we expect with this coach?
