Inter Milan captain Lautaro Martinez couldn’t control his emotions after Fluminense dumped the Nerazzurri out of the Club World Cup.
Per La Repubblica via FCInter1908, El Toro aimed his frustration at several unsettled clubmates.
During his post-match interview, Lautaro Martinez urged Hakan Calhanoglu to leave the club for Galatasaray.
However, the 27-year-old’s statement didn’t only relate to the Turkish midfielder.
Instead, he sent a clear message to all other wantaway players.
Which Inter Milan Star Lautaro Martinez Targeted After Club World Cup Exit
In addition to Calhanoglu, Davide Frattesi’s future has been among the main talking points this summer.
Despite Simone Inzaghi’s exit, the 25-year-old’s prospects at San Siro look bleak.
Meanwhile, Atletico Madrid and Napoli have set their sights on the former Sassuolo star.
Like Calhanoglu, Frattesi has refused to request a transfer.
However, there’s a feeling he’s still keen on finding a new challenge away from Giuseppe Meazza.
Therefore, Lautaro did not mince words, urging everyone lacking commitment to pack their bags and leave.
Indeed, in the time of transition, it’s in Inter’s best interest to sever ties with all unhappy players.
Hakan, frattesi, Thuram, Acerbi, de vrij, darmian, anslani and taremi all should be sold and replaced. They’re all either too old, not good enough, just not a good fit or unsettled here.
Lautaro should also say that Inter should play as a team not play for themselves like he did so many times
With new coach, come a new style of play. Chivu style of play is fast and aggressive pressure. Thats why he succeed in parma.
Player like Thuram who can not give opponent pressure not suitable for Chivu style of play. You should sell a player not compatible with coach style of play.
Player like Acerbi. Too slow for fast Chivu tempo. You should sell a player not compatible with coach style of play.
Player like Asllani. Not wild enough. As defensive midfielder in Chivu style of play, you should wild enough like Calhanoglu.
Stankovic should play. He is wild enough for defensive midfielder Chivu style of play.
I think Fratessi is a good guy. I just think he was too direct for Inzaghi who wanted him playing keep away for 70 minutes. I’m confident he could be reborn and happy with a new coach.
Calhanoglu is looking half-retired and if he wants to go home, so be it. I have nothing but respect.
Thuram is a diva. I have no patience for these guys that lope around and give half effort because they’re too cool to try. He can be gone.
We need guys with the passion like Barella, Dumfries, and Lauti to dictate the personality of this team. The days of wannabe superstars walking around are over. Successful teams have 11 guys giving full effort and fighting for each other.
Fck Fratessi his absolutely useless, in 2 years he couldn’t get 2-3 games in a row… Thuram is world class quality
I blame lauti for his words. pretty much everyone is tired since last two seasons. this team runs out of fuel. I think man city suffered the same last season. I’ve seen inconsistencies from this shirt, but final spurt for last season was different
captain lautaro but He is not the one talk rubbish cause he’s most waste full striker in inter Milan history
He has his dry spells, but you can never question his commitment… As for most wasteful striker ever?? I don’t know how long you’ve supported Inter, but do you want me to give you a list!?!
I would also suspect Thuram is in this bracket… since Christmas, he’s played like he doesn’t give a shit…. As our Captain said, if you don’t want to be here, then off you go!!!
You’re right about that. Thuram has always carried himself with that ‘I don’t care’ attitude. It’s cool when things are going well but it’s these types that flake and run away in the tough times.
This was my biggest fear with changing coaches. There is always the chance that the big egos in the team will try to take advantage or will throw a fit if they aren’t the favorites anymore.
I hope Chivu and management have a plan to address it or else we could be in for a rough couple years.
