After a very intense and tough morning workout where Roberto Mancini was very active Inter had a different training session in the afternoon. They faced Houssine Kharja’s Al Ahli who are also in the area for preseason training. The two teams used the afternoon training to play a game.
The 90 minutes played at Riscone show that the two teams Mancini fielded (one for each half) both did poorly, the opponents seemed in great shape and with a will to do well against Inter. Rodrigo Lima scored for Al Ahli after only 5 minutes played and Inter did not manage to score until Stevan Jovetic equalized on a penalty in the 90th minute.
Not a satisfying test, but there were a lot of changes and different tactics were tried by Mancini who started the game with a 3-5-2 formation and Shaqirir was back on the pitch from the first minute.

Wow this thread had all the experts going all out. Interesting read.
Worst preseason ever!
Keep calm, I think positive this will only just “drama” preseason. In purpose to makes us “underrated”. Hahaha..
Yes, Shaqiri is back. 🙂
Shaqiri was one of the only players who played well yesterday…
yeah wit the will, inter looked liked they were playing against bayern munich, Mancini, need to talk to sousa see how is he getting all those wins against top flight teams… last one last night 1-0 to chelsea
Yeah, Fiorentina are playing good really, considering also they missed on Salah too
why is Inter not giving us a promising preseason??
It’s because almost 50% of the players are new they need time to adjust and gel with teammates…Idk of you watched the gala vs inter game but it could clearly be seen that everyone wasn’t intune with each other in the parts of the field that counts.The defense apart from the goal wasn’t bad considering that Miranda was pretty much dropes into the side straight from vaca but was pretty sound…the midfield in that game they were all doing their roles pretty well the game was physical Guarin Kova and Kondogbia were pretty much going into challenges head on as if it wasn’t a friendly,got the ball but then as they had it nobody was willing to play a long ball to supply the attackers..they opted to play it short or thread a through ball through the eye of a needle which Kova did pull off but the chance was squandered by Icardi,one could argue it was miscommunication but I believe that was typical Icardi which brings me to the attack.Palacio seems to have given all that’s left in his tank,he’s no longer as sharp and decisive as he once was.He’s surely down on confidence that’s for sure… As a number 8 you’re supposed to supply for the striker in addition to finish your chances which at this current moment he’s not doing either.Passing when he should shoot or taking a shot when the better option would be a pass.I have also noticed his crossing has become very poor.I believe he’d be more effective coming on as a sub in place of jojo instead of starting.Our attack is toothless in other words.. Icardi as he sometime does,difts out as the game goes on and becomes isolated.The midfield doesn’t have a player that lauches good long balls though I believe kova can over time as well as kondogbia but with them not pumping balls upfield it sees Icardi being starved of service. Palacio does tend to drop back and collect the ball via a short pass but he either runs into defenders or gets in a cross that leaves much to be desired and a frustrated Icardi.Now,when the ball does get to Icardi he tends to take a shot even when it might not be the best option like the game vs Gala..I think there’s too much pressure on Icardi to score and he needs help sooner rather than later if were going for top 3 or anywhere close that. So in three points…1.Defense needs to get a bit more chemistry and they should be find… 2.The midfield needs to find ways of supplying the strikers,a short pass doesn’t always cut it.3.Icardi needs a proper partner,a decisive partner and while he’s at it work on his decision making..yes you’re a striker but if your partner is in a better goal scoring position pass! Don’t be selfish. With these problems adressed we should be fine. Forza inter!!
what about milan , fiorentina, roma, they all had significant changes, they stick managed wins and good games
Only fiorentina had a good preseason out of all Italian teams
Ahahah…Milan? They got absolutely destroyed by bayern 3-0 it was a demolition from start to finish..I mean we lost as well but only 1-0 ..Roma I didn’t follow them all that much but I doubt they made more changes than we did or even milan.Fiorentina hats off to them they played very well and looking good but this ia just preseason…we’ll come along with time.Our squad on paper is very good and when they start proving their worth it’ll be something to watch.
have you seem Inter vs bayern? in could have inded 5-0 if it wasnt for the Hando hands, yet Milan have played better than us and won some games lost some, and scored, their game against Madrid was close to perfect and the lost in penalties, sorry pal, but inter preseason is very worrying, in comparsion to others, and we keep saying 50% of the squad new players, it is not true, most of the preseasons game we played with only 2 new playersand changes to 3 then 4 .. mancini is destroying what left of inter
stop dropping a deuce on mancio brah, belive and support your team and your manager. you’re an interista and you’re supposed to have class. Only losers compare themselves to others.
Bra?? hahah seriously bro where are you from? i cant support a manger that want to play every single inter layer against their will and out of prospect and way far from his expected position, thats just not the manager i will cheer for. and just because you love him blindely doesnt mean all fans do, you also should have class and understand freedom of speech, everyone entitle to their own opinions, specially the Interesta.. with no mockery or hard feelings.. i only replied you this time, cause you have been decent since your last party.. and i hope you can keep it clean, and about the losers you are actually not wrong, we are losers, unless you are watchn archived inter games we are very much losing every game we played this term
we are not losers, we have had players who are losers because they don’t respect the shirt 😉
I live in a place called Manhattan but my background is French-Italian / Lebanese… and I”ve moved a lot.. true Interista!
btw I do like to party sometimes, it gets the messages here flowing and more people participate! Maybe I’ll guest star on sempreinter podcast so you can all flame me hehe! At the least the hate will be directed at me and not Mancio, Guaro, Rano etc…
Handanovic played well as he usually did but I can clearly remember Murillo’s goal line save.We have a good team and regardless of who stopped the goals they only scored once… That’s the keepers job to save..he’s part of the team as well so even if Handanovic saved us that’s okay..We will get chemistry and then you’d see the money’s worth of quality proving all doubters wrong.
BBilan have only been losing… only team that is winning in is Fiorentina and I guarantee they will not finish higher than last season at best.
Very well said. Not much to add to that other than our RCM and LCM still think that Medel plays behind them, and he’s responsible of doing more defending. They should be reminded that Kovacic role is like Pirlo’s and they need to do more defending (Gala’s goal was scored based on this mistake)
You are absolutely right. Palacio is slow, so as Hernanes. I’d like to see Guarin tested at Hernanes role, and Jovetic starts instead of Palacio. Shaq also could be tested at Palacio/Hernanes position.
Where did Guarin play in 2013-2014 season? I’m not quite sure but it would be interesting having him advanced a bit more but pushing him up the field would mean that we lose what he brings defensively…I mean as he came off against gala we were completely overrun.Unless medel plays with kondogbia and with medel playing that would relieve kond of some of his defensive duties and he’ll bring out his creative side it really would be exciting. I think Shaq would be decent in Palacio’s position as well but unfortunately his work rate is no where close to palacio..actually nobody on the team has a higher work rate than Palacio even though he’s old he gives his all but his time has gone if shaq learns to drop in deep and collect the ball from midfield and picks out good passes then why not? He wants to stay we might as well utilize him.
Mazzari have utlized all Inter players in bes position suits the player the adapt his plans to suit his players, Mancini is playing icardi on the flanks which he sucks at because he need depth and balls from the inside to score just like Mazzari did with his, in half season with Mazzri he scored more goals than he scored with mancini, mancini is shifting players and ask them to adapt, some playerscant adapt, they were bought to play in certain position, and his ideas are ruining inter completely.. bring murinho back he will win seriea A with this very same team i have ni doubts
Mancini is developping Icardi into a Luis Suarez style no.9 because Maurito can do that. He has better feet than a reg no.9 (ex crespo, bierhoff). and like any new position it takes time to gainthe automatism. Now is the best time do it in preseason.
i just don’t know if that is gonna work out.. just think about Suarez and Icardi have completely different qualities, Icardi is fantastic striker, but can not be compared to Suares, that dog is fast amazingly accurate on target.. and he bites alot haha.. anyways its not just Maurito, you got kovacic, Guarin, Hernannes mede (which he had no problem adapting since last year) but thats only because he is pitbull, and dodo, which he utalize so incridablly wrong last year that i hold mancini responsible for dodos injury … i love manico . i respect his history,, and cautious about saying it because of 230 million pounds he spent in city .. for less impressive trophies, and i am only comparing the amount of trouphies to the amount of money.. and thats fair way to look at it
let’s hope for the best!
That’s true to an extent… WM does know how to get the most out of players but there’s a fine line between getting the most out of your players and getting the most out of the team which is why sometimes his results just got frustrating, sometimes you have to change stuff around a bit to suit the team more.Sometimes not everyone can play in their position as its it’s better to do what suits the team so yeah Mancini has asked some players to play out of their regular positions but I think he did it with the best interest of the team at heart..if you see what he did with JJ you’d know what I mean..there is not ONE inter supporter who can tell me JJ is better at CB than LB without sounding insane..his positioning is awful and his attributes is more suited for LB as he’s pacey and isn’t a lost cause attacking either..he can get back quick enough to defend so yeah all good there…Hernanes has been a revelation coming down to the end of last season playing him as CAM really got us some points,Hernanes even came out himself and said that he feels a new thanks to Mancini moving him higher up the field instead of CM.Now shifting doesn’t work with everyone we saw how Icardi looks isolated now especially when palacio doesn’t get the ball to him enough neither does the midfield as they don’t have that long ball vision it’s either that or they don’t have the confidence so in that I believe Icardi should be played a bit more central and deeper almost as a Centre forward but just don’t ask him to drop too deep I think it’ll work better like that for him.I understand your frustration but you have to back the manager..I mean come on ..preseason and you want him sacked? Mourinho is a dream.His home is Chelsea and he’d be there for atleast 3 more years. Some want fiorentina’s old coach as well but we should give Mancini a chance he got what he wanted basically apart from Persic and now it’s time for him to deliver.Forza inter!
maybe am being a bit unfair, wanting mancio saked.. only because i see pattern… and its a nightmare.. the first half of the season will show us .. the real mancini’s effect.. its also that am mentally sick of the propoganda carried with the players, each and every one of them shouts: mancini the reason am here he contacted me.. ?? sorry but the reason you are here should be the club the fans the history of inter not MANCINI, and the tag ‘he convinced me”..? what about salad who he claimed ran out of credit, what about Impala impola whatever his name was, who was waiting for his phone call, call me crazy but he is more important and better than kondogbiya, and cheaper though the later have more potential not according to me but according to experts… and i still dont see that,, he seems to me, like if he hate to run, or runs funny, not sure what his deal is, but he look like he is forced to play for inter something is aching me about it
Have you watched him in gala game? My word..the kid single handedly bossed the midfield he saved us on a number of times and proved to be the only one offerimg resistance in the midfield.If it wasn’t for kondogbia trust me we would have conceded much more goals not too sure about the stats but he made about 3 key interceptions.He is the only player from midfield that I know would be first choice to start,alot of pressure is on him and the french international isn’t backing down.Mancini is a great coach when it comes too bringing in players which is why they all say that Mancini was a major influence in them joining the club.Yes they should be saying that the fans and the history..and whatever but at the end of the day,nobody wants to play with a club who’s manager is a nobody. Yes …WM would have not been able to bring in any one we got these past windows .He is a big factor players want to win and Mancini offers them that project to win and be on top.He offers players a stage in which they can grow and make a name for themselves and this is why I believe shaq came..and why he wants to stay now having been offered that.Btw I don’t believe Imbula is better than Kondogbia..at least not at our club it was the right decision..costlier but the better option in the end.Forza internazionale milano!
Palacio is very responsible when defending, but he loses the ball way too easy. If someone plays in his spot with more skills in holding the ball, and passing (Shaq) we might be Okay after all.
Additionally, I’d love to see Medel plays at RCM, but somethings tells me he’s not creative enough to play there, and he’s too defensive minded to help the attack. Brozo is born to play that position, I want him to be given a chance.
Agreee. And also if we play 2 strikers just like rooney – berbatov / persie that would be good. This season our opponent will much aware of Icardi and guard him tightly. I hope palacio or jojo will be the good solution for attacking style in case of “isolated icardi for 90 minutes”
Yea all for Brozo. Shaq is poor at passing but he can hold onto the ball, he doesn’t have the vision for that position though. Shaq will excel if he has less options. He’s a reflex/instinct type of player, not a thinker.
again because he is not playing in his rightful position, maybe he is dumb like you said, but if you are the coach you must be smart, you have got to see his qualities, he is brilliant but he is a dinger not a winger
whats a dinger? I see him as LM/LB but he can’t beat his man and gets trapped in the corner hence why I don’t see him as a WF.
he dinges when he win the ball 🙂 (completely made up word) i can see that you see eye to eye with mancini, the fact shaq attack comes from him being a second striker should be deployed on the left wing like with switzerland watch him play with basel or switzerland, you will be amazed, Icardi, gets a Ronaldo like position, Jovetic gets the RW.. i could be wrong, but i know am right about Shaquiri and other players being played in different position… even Poldoski was played in the wrong position, thats why Manci wants Persic, cause that guy plays in hell and dont care
my problme is swizz league and NT tournaments allow attackers more space and aren’t as disciplined in defense hence why he performed well. I remember seeing his performances at WC and with Basel IN Champs and he stood out but in that famou sgame 3-0 against honduras he also made a lot of mistakes. Even the swizz fans thought he was shit aside from the goals. (I was watching with many swizz friends).
Shaq came and said he was winger, and he faile din that position. He then came out and said AMF was his preferred position.. and failed again. I just don’t think he has the repertoire to succeed in a very tough league like Serie A. His play is entertaining but also very predictable and the downside to his game is the selfishness (rare for a no.10) and his turnovers. He does not link up well, he’s more of a mustang.
haha yes probably why Mancini wants Perisic, but Palacio-Icardi-Jovetic is not bad esp since Palacio does so much work for the team and his finishing has been OK in preseason. I don’t think the fans give Palacio enough credit, not too long ago he scored that wonderful goal to beat Milan in the derby. Yes he’s not flash or as fast as he used to be but he’s intelligent and can linkup well.
Podolski is podolski, yea most of the time he didn’t get to play where he wants but he wasn’t so bad. He missed some sitters but also showed his class sometimes. I kinda wish he would have stayed but the problem with him is that he’s a small club player, aside from german NT (again NT tournaments lower level) he’s mostly shined in smaller teams where he’s the big fish. (kind of like Shaq but I consider Podo a much better and more intelligent player, less flash more substance)
I can’t wait to see Brozo in particular next season ..after his good debut I expect better this upcoming season.Like it or not he brings a bit more to the team than Kova,no disrespect to Kova as he’s a great talent as well but just looking at things unbiased.
plus Palacio has amazing off the ball movement opening spaces for the other and stretching the opposing team. Palacio’s always been a Support striker even back in his Boca days. Sure he was faster but he still is relatively mobile and is a good foil to Icardi.
maybe you’re right. But you know, even Fiorentina can beat Barcelona and Chelsea when some of Fio’s key player have left the club (Salah, Gomez, Savic, Aquilani, Micah Richards, Diamanti, Neto, Gilardino. Vargas, Pizzarro, etc). Lets just hope Inter can do more in Serie A
Barcelona isn’t having a particularly good preseason and Chelsea has Falcao striking.. Now idk if you’ve been following the Colombian but he can seriously be compared to torres you aren’t gonna get goals from him anytime soon but that’s another thing by itself good work by fiorentina but they haven’t played teams that are doing all that well so I wouldn’t judge to say they’re better prepared than we are although the results tend to indicate that.
No need tactical analyze to explain. .Keep calm, and think positive this will only just “drama” preseason. In purpose to makes us “underrated”. Hahaha..
have you thought about replacing BB, that was so political, no one understood, who’s side are you on.?? lol
The 3-5-2 is not
in itself a bad formation. Yesterday Fiorentina beat Chelsea in Stamford Bridge
with that formation. Other factors are more important in getting the desired
result.
And Juve won 3 scudetti in a row with that formation. It is a real good formation if you have the right players for it.
3-5-2 formation means we need quality pacey LM and RM supplying balls for forward line on a constant basis while they even come back and help in defense.. I can’t call any players like that in our team though I’m tempted to say Naga isn’t Allll that bad.
ye Naga and Shaq wouldn’t be bad. To play 3 at the back properly the central CB needs to be OK in attack like P.Canna was or Bonucci… our only CB who is decent in attack is Rano.
Yeah Rano has good presence in opponent’s penalty area.I think we we count JJ as a CB he’s good in attack to..but unfortunately he wouldn’t offer all that much in defense. His positioning is awfullllll.
I wonder which decent managers r out they. Just wondering.
Montella, Koemann, and mazzari .. bring Mazzari back
LOL
Wiy don’t just play simple football??
I remember Kova moaning to Mancini because he asking too much..
3-5-2 ..played badly..hmm feels like déjà vu …Walter stop hiding! I can see you 😀
walter disguised as mancini
Wow that’s so exciting…
A penalty in the 90th min against Al Ahli to save our ass.
3-5-2? Pfft… please somebody hit the ball again at Mancio’s face so he can think more clearly. As soon as possible lol
3-5-2…
http://i.imgur.com/gn669YF.png
at least we scored…
lol
we played like crap belive me,we were lucky not to lose at least 3-0
352 to accomodate fat shaq since he cant play in the middle. Plus also to get all our cbs in shape. Remember this was a fitness exercise.
In any case hope that means if shaq stays he will be concerted to attacking fullback.
For all the haters, legendary mou tried both cuadrado and willian as fullbacks w chelsea today.
Hmmm because another club does it doesn’t mean it’ll be good for us just saying and if I’m not mistaken I believe willian and cuadrado are both more defensively capable than shaqiri currently.. You said it yourself he’s fat..now I wouldn’t say fat I would use bulky but at LB you need speed..shaq has amazingly good accel but over longer distances gets beaten.Who knows though anything is possible in the world of football.
you’re right about him over long distances/accel.
Ideally I’d like to sell him for a cool 2mil profit. he really has no space in our squad and if we keep him on the bench his value will plummet
Yes that’s what the majority of fans want I think but he keeps rejecting offers along with the rest of the players in the club they all want to stay..Mancini must have showed them an amazing project… And well shaq played in the friendly yesterday so I guess he might stay after all and gets his deserved opportunity to play a full season would Mancini change the formation to suit him? I highly doubt that.with shaq playing it means either hernanes(our best cam atm) doesn’t play or kova doesn’t play and I think I can safely say we all want to see Kova play,any interisti wants to see Kova on the field so it’s hard but I know our management would come up with the right decision…
Bro, as much as i want to respect your comment i must admit you’re annoying most of the time. The hate you spread about Shaq, your admiration to Guarin and Mancini, and of course your hypothetical analysis that “for me” nothing close to make any sense.
If you have personal issues or sentiment, just keep it for yourself bro.
I”m annoying because I support the Coach and one of our players who puts in the most heart? You’re upset because I don’t support your dearest Shaq and I call out the cleear weaknesses in his game.Not to mention Guarin has actually won games for us as recently as the 2nd half of the past season. Glass house, mr/ personal issues /sentiments. Heed your own advice, it’s so much easier to join the love Shaq hate Guaro/Mancio mob. You call Guaro bird shooter, I call Shaq fat kebab boy… difference is Guarin is a leader, Shaq is a flop.. nobody wants to sign him!
Save have a seat brah and tell me how do your feet taste?
Many blame you for your opinions on shaki, yet when they bash guaro, it’s perfectly fine and accepted, hypocrits
Hypocrites indeed! I wish they were as passionate about INTER as they are about Shaq.
The guy came only in december and played 3 games in Serie A before getting forever benched yet they’re ready to throw the baby witht he bath water for this guy. I mean crapping on Mancio when he has a proven track record and won so much with us… ingrates! You wanna see a good player with Shaq’s physique? Look at Fabrizio Miccoli… Shaq looks like Alvaro Perreira in comparison. (even though deep down I kinda do like watching Perreira for his NT team)
In any case, FORZA INTER!
Again, why you very confidence when saying something “bull”. He played 15 times, 8 times as starting XI and you said 3 times…???
I’m counting Serie A and not Coppa/Europa easier defenses.
15 appearances, 2 goals and both were indecisive, first was the 4th in the 4-1 win and the second was against Celtic.
Stop acting like he’s the Swiss Messi. He’s not even the Swiss Lavezzi
exactly! and i swear our shirt makes some people choke, pereira is not bad at all, really good actually for Porto and Uruguay, but cant kick a ball for us, sort of the same with shaki
I know he was a beast at Porto and still is beating w the national team. He was so exciting to watch at the world cup… guy gets knocked out and fights to get back on!
I was really hoping he would pull thru for us, he was also very expensive… some players just can’t hack it at a big club like INTER especially in our tough league.
I just don’t wanna lose money on Shaq at this point, if we sell we’ll prob make 2 mil. I’ll take that over giving him a chance, I don’t think the probability of him turning it around is high. It’s too big of a risk standing from here… if we get like 10mil for him in Winter that means we will have to sell someone else in addition…
a player of his calibre will no way be 10mil, highly doubt that it will drop less than 15 million. If he wants to prove himself so much, let’s see what he can do, rather than further delaying and messing up the rest of our Mercato (also our reputation won’t drop, in the way we treat shaki, otherwise it might push future players away from us seeing how we treat those who don’t fit in straightaway)
Besides, a cheeky proposal to his national teammate embolo to come would not be too bad would it? 😉
Now you’re claiming nobody wants to sign Shaq? Hmm I see. Get yourself a fact checker. And stop with the hate and insufferable whining alr and just support the colour.
who wants to sign Shaq? seriously, we have put a for sale sign whole summer and who showed up? Shalke and Stoke… and they don’t wanna spend much on him either. Sorry if your boyfriend isn’t as good as you think he is. Have a seat Wincent
The last time I know, Dortmund and Schalke are on a Ruhr derby here in Germany. Everton, Stoke just to name the rest. Your counter argument is just getting sad now, trying so hard to wind me up. Let me tell you, those mean nth unless it’s the truth. I’m not seething like you are now. Don’t get too personal now, just keep it in your dear diary, aight princess?
You would be wise to listen to your own advice. You don’t know what you’re talking about . I’m not the one here who swells for Shaqiri.
Btw, nobody gives 2 shits about the Ruhr derby. That made me laugh! Oh and congratulations on living in a country where they will never ever let you assimilate.
Everton, Stoke, Shalke and Dortmund don’t wanna pay more than 15mil for this guy. Clubs like Bayern and Inter are at one level and the ones you mentioned are on another. And those clubs aren’t even moving to sign him, he’s been for sale for 2 months! If he was so good he would have been swooped up already… nobody in Serie A or in La liga want him because his technique is so poor. These are facts not opinions.
So you’re ignoring the fact that these clubs are interested in Shaqiri just by saying “nobody gives a shit about these clubs”. You’re dismissing a fact now. And that’s what you’ve been doing. That and making up your version of “fact”. The problem is, you’re too stubborn as a person and everything is personal to you. It feels like you’re here in this website just to spread hate. It’s not even constructive anymore.
I read that, Germany is going for a multi-cultural society rather than cultural assimilation, if you even truly know what those terms are. One of the reasons why they want to attract as many international students as possible with a free tertiary education and other incentives. Well, at least that’s how to media are putting it. But then again, whether I’m here to stay is my private matter and other important people in my life, clearly not yours. You should know that by now. Which brings me back to my first advice, “don’t get too personal”. We come here to love the club, not hate. So do that.
Yea ask the turks who work in factories for peanuts how they like the ‘multi-cultural society’. Ask them how Germans treat foreigners, how they joke that every Red Mercedes must be owned by a Turk.
‘multi-cultural society’ : a euphemism for segregation and a cast system.
your naivety underlines your age. You have a long way to go bud.. and arrogance won’t get you far. Yes vocalizing stupidity is something that annoys me, especially ignorance that masquerades as opinion. Not everything you hear is true, read up, research and try and synthesize your own opinion (kind of like a dissertation of you don’t plagiarize).
The example about Germans making racist remarks about other races, is just weak isn’t it? Is this the “dissertation” original opinion you’re talking about? Well, it seems like you think that’s a strong case, because maybe it’s very personal to you, I wouldn’t know.
Look, racism is a commonplace everywhere in the world trust me on this. Even in countries with purest or most singular composition of races, such as S Korea. They discriminate people from different parts of the nation. I’m not condoning it. In fact I think it’s an epidemic. But then again, this is an issue on the social level and not political.
You know know very well by multi-culturalism, I mean the acceptance of multiple religions and cultures and that people from different backgrounds can live together as the citizen of the world and not as different groups and sub-groups of people.
I, for one, choose to be politically neutral and pay as little attention as possible to political issues of another nation. And at my kiddish (according to you) age, politics only affect at a superficial level.
Just to bring things to perspective, you’re getting all annoyed and wound up by ‘a stupid kid’. So congratulations! Sounds to me, like that stupid kid is doing pretty well.
you pay little attention but it’s out there and it’s ok to ignore it until it affects you directly. Watch out, I am like you and I am neutral but the neutral/liberal ones tend to be the ones that always lose. You won’t find Racism in big International cities like New York or Hong-Kong.
I’m not really annoyed, I just wish you would enrich yourself a little more. Afterall you can’t be taht bad, you are an INTERISTA! 😀
Oh, nothing else to say about multiculturalism or assimilation, or some other interesting political subjects you know so much of? I’m not surprised, that’s as far as your intelligence get you, or the lack thereof.
Hey trust me when I say there are racism in HK, although you claimed otherwise. It’s not as rampant, it’s condemned, but it’s out there. There again, you with another of your classic sweeping statement. This is synonymous with people who are vain, pompous and think they know better, without actually experiencing it first hand.
I’ll end the hating here, like I intended to do from the beginning. I hope YOU would kindly do the same to the rest of US, Interista. Forza Inter!
calm down, I didn’t know you were waiting for a dissertation. You see quite agitated, save the energy for the rubentini and bbilanisti.
Vain and pompous? why you gotta act like I Icardi’d your girl brah?
PS, multiculturalism and assimilation are more Sociology than Politics. If you’re gonna mock me try to not make a fool out of yourself.
Or maybe you’re hungry? I know people get cranky when hungy. Perhaps all you need is to swallow a nice warm kebab?
XD You’re trying so hard to make it personal with kebabs, and my girl and so on. Oh my, how low can a desperate man stoop to.
Sociological and Political issues are closely intertwined if anything. Yeah, we were on the issues themselves, or have you forgotten about that too?
Look, I said let’s stop the hating. I’m gonna make good of the end of my deal. Let’s hope you do too. Not just on this/me, but also others. Respecting the rest of the Inter family. A thing I’ve been bringing up from the beginning but you have not acknowledge till now.
This closing comment by you were kill him sir… Well done…
And btw, it’d also be respectful if you’d just stay in the same bracket of conversation instead trying to change the subjects all the time, adding new irrelevant things, like whether I’m hungry or not.
truce it is my friend! Cheer to being interisti! At least nobody can say we’re not passionate!
I think once we rip Rube a new orifice the mood here will lighten up and people will stop calling bird shooter or kebab boy
do you regard Shaqiri talented, because thats almost out of the question, mancini have no use for him, or is he? but to regard him as stupid talentless hmmm, thats not nearly true… i have watched him play.. as i watch Pirlo .. i was so angry when Inter let Pirlo go, and not sure i think first we Loaned him to Genoa cant remember, but i was pissed and thats when i started my hate relation ship with Moratti, Inter Fans should never forget the Pirlo Moment, Shaqiri is as talented, one day he will be out there wowing the world and we will be sitting cussing the line of DHL.. for passing such ugly deliveries.. lets not lose another Pirlo just because what goes on in the Moratti house of horror
I was absolutely livid when we let Pirlo leave. I remember asking my dad wtf Guly??? GUglimininiiminipietro…
He was loaned to Reggina and did well and I remember watching him with my fave player (baggio) @ brescia… I loved that brescia team, they slayed juve with an amazing linkup between PIrlo and Baggio.
I do think Shaq has talent but I think he is overly reliant on his raw talent and doesn’t use his brain. He’s a meathead reflex/instinct type of player. Always the same style, brute force running, brute force dribbling, brute force shooting… no subtlety in his play, it’s always the same thing and thus he was figure dout so quickly. (happened to many players who came to Italy)
I don’t see Shaq stepping up his game because his vision is very limited and vision… unfortunately… is not something you can really develop that much. You can work on FK, weak foot, touch, positioning… but not playmaking… even a young Pirlo who was still very rough still had that killer vision.
I remember seeing Pirlo at AMF with Inter and being so slow he was ineffective. It wasn’t until Mazzone converted him into a quarterback and made him do long passes that he fit (Ancelotti gets the credit but even he says I just did what Mazzone did)
I blame the Pirlo/Seedorf sales on none other than Hector Cuper despite the fact Cuper should have won the scudetto had it not been for match fixing. He was a defensive stubborn coach and he pushed to sell those gems.
huh you are actually funny when you are not bashing on us lol, ok i could agree with you, but you still harsh on Shaq, maybe if he stayed and played more you would see him differently, maybe not, you also could be visioning what we all failed to capture.. he could be meathead, but as mad as i am with mancini i do believe he should be giving the chance, and so Shaqiri, i dont believe he played enough… Cuper i dont blame, i know you think i aggressively attacjk Moratti for no reason but, he was behind Pirlo leaving, nothing goes in Inter without his ok, and seems like things havent changed a bit, Moratti have done much for inter, he also have taking much from inter, Moratti is not modern man he is very traditional Italian, and his footbal ideas very complicated and hard to agree with in modern football, that all am gonna say.. i hope Shairi stay and prove his worth for the good of the team
Yea Moratti did so much and ruined so much, really needed Mancio and Mou to come and put their feet down.
Pirlo didn’t exactly fit Cuper’s game plan and the only one who was protected at all costs was Chino.
My worry with keeping Shaq if the financial risk. If we sell now we can make a slight profit on his sale. If he stays and continues to do poorly, or gets benched, we are gonna lose a lot of money on him. It doesn’t bother him since the transfer price will be lower but he will be able to ask for a higher salary.
We’re already taking a risk on Jovetic and at least we know JOvetic can hack it in serie A as long as he stays fit. I think Shaq is bigger gamble since he’s worth more and we have more to lose… and he also doesn’t fit in the 4-1-2-1-2.
“I don’t see Shaq stepping up his game because his vision is very limited and vision… unfortunately… is not something you can really develop that much. You can work on FK, weak foot, touch, positioning… but not playmaking… even a young Pirlo who was still very rough still had that killer vision.

Large chunk of that is just what I told you when just a few days back isn’t it? When we talked about man-management, remember? You gonna give me some credits for that? Or are you gonna claim that you “synthesised this idea” yourself as well?
Hahahaha I kinda get an image of what kind of person you are now. Do you really have that need to prove yourself so much? Trying so hard to be dominant by bashing on the opinions of others? It’s alright not to be the smartest person in the room. I don’t believe all of us here are doctors or rocket scientists. Just learn to respect opinions of others more from now on and be more humble.
not at all, I don’t get your problem Wincent. When you spoke of man management it was totally different. It’s like saying hey I told you about trigonometry so you have to thank me for helping you ace quantum physics… because they all fall under the sciences?
Anyways it seems clear you are on a childish vendetta. I tried to debate with you but you are reverting to high school insults. Interisti are better than that, if you’re gonna insult me step up your game! Anyways don’t lose sleep over it little mac.
No, it’s not actually. “You can work on FK, weak foot, touch, positioning… but not playmaking” That’s almost word to word, when I told you positioning and tactical awareness can be taught, but not vision, flair, etc. Ring a bell?
Look who’s talking, making up new names for me?Wincent? Really? That alone is disrepectful. Imagine me calling you Slutmani. But don’t worry bruv, I would not stoop to yourself, or even want to. Step up my game? I don’t think from this evidence, I have to.
Don’t claim to be an Interista when you don’t respect the thoughts of others. Insulting so many commenters out there. Really, your need to feel approved and be the smartest guy in the room is just pathetic.
Oh, And thanks for your concern about my sleeping pattern
is that photoshopped?
I promise it isn’t I found it on Google Image search and checked the page it was on. I’ll try and find the link.

from what I Can see he was attending Milan’s Basket ball game, Inter do not have basketball team as far as i know
Hmmm… Well sir, honestly i’m not fan of all those names you mention above if you judging me so. For me no one bigger than the club, i only dislike the way you spread your hatred for the players and how you insult everyone in this site, take this example: i’m not fan of quaresma so normaly i should not care with this, but then you posted the image with tags on it where i think you shouldn’t go this far just to express your hatred/sarcasm. Since this related to Inter, and i am Interista i found this insulting. Don’t you know that you already insult me and most of people here?
You seemed love to get attention than keep the hatred for yourself, sorry but that the impression i’ve got by reading your comments..
listen bud, i don’t have hatred for the players like man of you. I dislike ONE overrated player and wihtout a doubt Miccoli was 5x better than Shaq, i’ts shame you hadn’t seen him play because you would have agreed.
Quaresma was better than Shaq technically but still lfopped on his face because he was dumb like Shaq.
Sorry if reality hurts but don’t go accusing me of hating the players when I support everyone of them.
Direct your cursor to my profile picture and read whats write in it…
You hardly got the point.
It’s not about the players nor the coach anymore, this argument started by you has gone too far, so no matter how hard you tried to convince people about your idea, people won’t give a “S” about it.
By my sense of a human and how human understand each others, reading people replied comments to you and understanding what’s the true messages behind it, don’t you ever tried at least take time to think why many people standing on the opposite of your idea…???
– You said in other post that you’re a doctor, so i think you’re well educated people.
– You said fabrizio micolli and you have roberto baggio on your profile picture, judging from this aspect i have a picture that you’re quite a long time as Interista.
– You’ve quite fast on replying people’s comments especially comments that i think offended to you. I don’t know what time there, do you sleep? in my country here 09.30 AM.
But when i review the quality of your comments and take my time to imagine who you really are, i found this kind of comments were perfect fits to new fan either a troll (i hope i was wrong).
Don’t you realize, people didn’t like the way you behave, your attitude, the way you express yourself, you just making your own color (us Interista) as enemy. I hope this words i have made will touch your heart.
I’m up at odd hours because… like I said before.. I work as a radiologist. Most of my work is on the computer and I can receive scans at odd hours of the day.
I have been an interista for forever and I know that my comments don’t always agree with the popular opinion on this forum. However, I have watched a lot of football and when I express my opinion it is based on this experience. I am up for debate but unfortunately most insult me when I don’t agree with their assessments… it’s also completely hypocritical on their part since they throw names like bird-shooter etc…
It’s cool to rip on Dodo, Mancio, Rano, Juan, Dambrosio, Palacio, Hernanes etc… but it’s not cool to call out Shaq, or to show that Brozo has been more solid than Kova… or that Guaro in fact was the game changer in several of our games since the winter break…
am i late ? tell me i’m not
What thé crack si ur problème with Shaqiri Again. Can you please make us all favor and shutthefuckup ok cuz honestly im pretty sûre that nobody support ur comments but u. Just shut it Ok
LIsten buddy, before going and insulting people you don’t know flexing your gracilis muscle on the net… take a step back and imagine where you would be today had your father done the right thing and swallowed you.
Have a seat son
I aint insulting nobody, but its you that u dont see that people are tired of ur bullshits comments all over so be man grow up and change subject kid
yo slap yo mama wit dose lips?
oh no problem i can do that to ur sister anytime anywhere and not just that but much more ..
yo didnt answe qwestion, yo slap yo mama wit doze lips?
Well said bro, the truth has been spoken. I don’t know if there is any post on this website about Shaqiri that he hasn’t talked shit on it.
hmm he is sabotaging our transfer market because he refuses a transfer despite knowing he won’t het played. He sat on the bench for 3 years at bayern. You guys are quick to call ou Vidic and co for picking up a free paycheck but Shaq is a saint. Actually you guys mock Mancio! Mancio knows what a 9.5 or a no. 10 is supposed to do, after all he was magic as a player.
What has Shaq done for inter except for sabotage and take money?
Maradona was a magician as a player if Mancini was magic but did he succeed at coaching ??? Great players don’t always turn into great coaches so ur arguments is pointless.
And guess what they will discuss again if they will sell Shaqiri or what since Perisic is being considered to risky since he is fragile with the injuries.
thats our whole argument.. Shaq is shunned for being shaq.. he dont have the diversity mancini asks for… mancini wants his front line players to play any position he want them to.. now in modern football this is number one rule for success, because teams became unpredictable, if you are playing torino this week you have to change your style of play next week for Sampdoria, Good defense and great attack doesnt cut it, if that was it Roma would have been winning the past few years… but the main problem.. inter buy players uncapable of doing so, then the coach thinks he can change them, when he realizes that he decide to sell… i dont disagree with Mancini’s vision for the future its the way to go, its his approach that i despise ..
I am honored his decisions if he can also guarantee there’s no more failure since “changing mind” can happen anytime. He buy players but then proven the players didn’t fulfill his expectations and then buy some other one and happen again, the cycle continue…
All i know both parties should found win-win solution, Inter got the money and Shaq got the club he wanted to play. In this case where ever inter sell him, well got the money but Shaq didn’t convince with his suitors, so i think it’s fair if he resist until he got what he wanted and if he risking another year of his career on the bench so that’s his choice since he didn’t have a better option. Inter also have option to terminate his contract as long as “get rid of him” is our main target but the club wont take the option because those way were really ugly right…??? Just respect the contract, thats it.
For me you stand in really wrong perspective when it comes to evaluate this problem.
Yeah.. We got Treble with Mou, not Mancio..
History never lie my friend..
if you can’t see he’s a good coach that knows how to build teams…. I can’t make you see it
You’re an overall okay guy, but all you ever do is just post comments hating on Shaqiri. It’s getting pretty annoying at this point, we get it, you don’t like him.
Going around saying he’s fat and the Kebab remarks are getting tedious at this point. This is not criticism, it’s just useless hate.
I don’t mind if Shaq leaves, but I don’t hate on him. That “fat” you’re talking about is all muscle, he’s just bulky.
Hey don’t blame him if Shaq is fat. Besides, it’s not the bulk that makes him look fat ITS THE FAT THAT MAKES HIM LOOK FAT !!!!
So fat
http://i.imgur.com/k1uP9Cz.png
care to show his GUT ? betcha any money he’s a sausage and corona kinda guy ???
no sausage or corona, he’s muslim.
He’s a kebab kind of guys, eat em, sits on em, fills every orifice with’em. I really hope Rubentus sign him for 30mil. Talk to your guy Allegri who let Pirlo leave on a free TWICE!
So coz he’s a muslim from Europe, you conclude that he’s a ‘kebab kind of guy’? Hmm, very shallow and not at all racially tolerant. You kinda contradict yourself now about how germans are discriminating turkish people, aren’t you.
i can not start counting how many talented players inter let go considering them unadequate to the team.. i really cant i wont remember all the names, and it hurts.. something wrong with how inter runs their business, and when Tohrir arrived i thought he is gonna lead inter to modern fotball aquisition but god forbide they let him!!… he have hired the right people to create company, but somewhere there in the football house.. something is very Moratti like is playing, makes inter do the same mistakes.. and dont think this is just another attack on Moratti, the poppeteer godfather is still making decisions inside the house, he is well respected, and mancini got fired first time for not listening to his suggestion, so sometimes am thinking maybe mancini is playing everybody, the way shaqiri is going about his business seems very smart to me, media boycott and accepting moves publically… they just dont seem to go through, so i thought about it and i think Mancini might be the smartest and running the whole show by directing Shaqiri in how to act calm while he is accepting moratti’s suggestions, and just delay the work untill the window is closed
LOL, I called him a kebab kind of guy because the guy looks like a kebab, he’s short and stumpy and greasy. Plus I think me mentioning him sitting on kebabs and sticking them down every orifice went over you head.
From day one the kebab thing is a joke. I know tone is hard to decifer via these messages. Draw yourself a caricature of fat Shaq sittign on the sidelines with a kebab in each hand stuffing his face… his ‘workout’
ahhh its that picture with the terrorist Imam set you off.. dont be political.. if he is muslim or married to his cousin.. his own business.. as long as he delivers.. plus he wasnt fasting,.. and thats important because.. you cant fast and play, like that guy bufudil or whatever his name was.. which moratti labled him the next benzima, which ws really laughable back then
nah I didn’t refer to his religion to be political. Even if he fasts that’s ok, muntari did and we still won the treble that year… it’s only a month. I was under the impression he did fast on days that weren’t game days and it would be natural to extrapolate that he probably doesn’t drink or eat pork.
Wait a sec he’s married to his cousin??? LOL I didn’t even see the pic with the Imam!
Or let’s talk to Branca who sold Pirlo for 18 million so that they can buy Hakan Sukur !!!
calves are absolutely useless for football, they are actually mostly genetic (flexors of the ankle). Thighs, core musles yes but calves are only useful for maybe a bicycle rider?
The guy ruined the little agility he had by lifting too much, now he has muscle that is being converted to fat because of atrophy…
reaction formation to all the Shaq dickriders that throw Mancio, Guaro etc under the bus. At least Kuz had the grace to leave…
What do you expect after training all day lol
