Welcome, Pioli. I hope you can do better than Frank. The upcoming matches are really touch, tho. You’ll need to act fast.
It’s pretty mutch impossible to do worse than FDB lol. Even Vecchi would have done better than FDB.
Guys don’t want to be pessimistic, but remember the hype we had before over appointing Gasperini? Pioli is a mediocre coach, if he didn’t know how to handle a professional player like Candreva in Lazio. How is he supposed to handle a whole team filled with arrogant players?
Hopefully I’m wrong, and this will turn out to be the best preparation the team needs to be led next year by Simeone

I miss this era… We weren’t winning any titles, but we had a ferocious team… A team that included Simeone, Ronaldo, Zamorano, Recoba
aron winter do u remember the dutch ?
Yeah he was a beast! But can’t forget the penalty he missed against shalke…
I liked him a lot , he was not fancy but a warrior, kinda like j. mario
Spot on!
Shut up and stop being a negative prick
Interesting way of communicating bro. Remember we’re all on the same boat. I’m being realistic
this troll needs to get banned
The guy has barely been Official for more than a couple of hours and you already starting the #PioliOut. Give him at least 2 games lol.
I disagree with you, I’m not starting the #PioliOut Campaign. But Usually veteran coaches that never trained stars fail miserably.
We never know how things will go beforehand. He might beat Milan. Let’s see what he does in the first 2 or 3 games. Then we can judge him. If he looses 2 out 3 games i will start the campaign myself lol.
Yeah let’s wait and see.. Fingers crossed
what about sarri
Napoli is not a team full of stars with high salaries. The pressure to perform in Inter is bigger than the one in Napoli that’s for sure.
but im arguing ur point “Usually veteran coaches that never trained stars fail miserably.”
sarri got the best out of higauin and made him the highest goal scorer in one season ever you what
Yeah I understand what you’re saying, but remember that he made the whole team work for Higuain. He never asked him to do any defensive duties, or pressure the other team. So any star would fall in love with the coach for that. Look at him now in Juventus, he’s not doing that good because Juventus plays as a team not to chip balls for one individual.
Higuain doesnt screw his teammate’s wife, doesnt critize his teammate publicly..
Welcome, SP Someonne said he is the best Italian coach after Conte. Let’s believe on it. 😛
idk about that, I’d say Ancelotti is up there to
I know but as I said, let’s believe on it. 😀 And you forgot Allegri. 😀
ranieri is up there too now
Mazzarri is at least in no.5 after Ancelotti, Conte, Ranieri and Allegri
something like that bbilan coach is good too
L’aeroplanino (“The Little Airplane”)
That someone was Alberto Zaccheroni
I was too lazy to look for his name. 😀
Hahahaha
c’mon, Italy is a nation which possibly gave the world the largest no. of superb coaches 😀
lets do that
Start by winning against Milan please.
You also had a good feeling about Flop De Boer.
I was one of the only one that said fuck fdb like u remember?
You said he’s soft cuz he only has daughters. U had me cracking up lool!
that was after he made me more mad, at the beginning I knew dutch don’t work for inter, impossible task + the way he was treating players
Fdb personality was 1 of a rude ignorant dutch asshole who treated players like he was better than them typical dutch coach no personality and boring tactian
you have no say here until u learn to respect people, gtfo here
Who cares shut up and grow up your not a inter fan ur a negative dick head
u don’t belong here, and don’t u dare call yourself an inter fan, you should be banned from this site
Well he can only surprise in a positive way.
The goal is definitely an EL spot at this point, which he hopefully can achieve although it wont be easy.
EL is easy. We can even achieve 3rd spot with a little luck. It’s 8 points to 3rd spot and we only played 12 games. We are playing Milan next who are in 3rd place, and if we beat them we will be only -5 points to 3rd place with 25 games remaining. But we must beat Milan. If we loose it will be -11 points instead.
I think the season so far shows that nothing is easy for this Inter team.
The remaining schedule for the first half of this season is quite hard with milan, napoli, fiorentina and lazio matches still to be played. Inter should have had far more points at this considering their schedule has been quite easy so far, the tough period comes now.
It would take a miracle to get 3rd place considering how the season has turned out and with a new coach again in midseason.
Reaching EL would be a good result, all things considered.
I wonder when last time coach survived two years in Inter? I think it was Mou, but he left himself. If Pioli plays 4-3-3, that’s what I read, then we’re lost. But, I won’t judge until I see the matches. Forza Inter & good luck Pioli.
Are we lost if we play 4-3-3? Why? A 4-3-3 can be played in many different ways, just like a 3-5-2!
I personally thinks our squad is best equipped to play either 4-3-3 or 3-4-1-2, not 4-2-3-1.
In a 4-3-3 we could play Banega as a deeper playmaker, a regista which I still think is his best role in a tactically very hard league like Italy, and have Mario and Kondogbia in front of him as box to box monsters!
Well, I see Banega as regista too, a role like Pirlo, and two hard-working midfielders with him, I just don’t want to see 30 crosses from Candreva in game when striker is 1,8m! It’s important to find a position for Eder, since he’s our best attacking player.
I like Eder as well but Perisic is very strong when played as a true winger in a 4-3-3 unlike a “Mobil” striker in a 4-2-3-1
I agree Banega will be more useful in deep lying playmaker role, as he loses the ball too easy when playing forward.
I think Inter would be very tough playing a 3-5-2.
Medel Miranda Murillo
Banega
Candreva (Ansaldi) Mario K-Dog (Brozovic) Perisic (Santon)
Icardi Eder
Advantages
1. Play Medel as a CB who won 2 Copa Americas and doesn’t play long balls.
2. There will always be one more player to defend, in case Candreva or Perisic are forward and the ball is lost.
3. Mario K-Dog and Brozo will cover many spaces as they are proved runners
4. Finally Eder will play on his best role, which is SS (secondary striker)
Agree with you in everything – maybe I´d like to play Gabi and Icardi together rather than Eder… otherwise AGREE!!
And with Medel at the back we get someone who knows how to go forward into midfield outnumbering the opponents in that area!
Right choice IMO. He can give us instant impact due to him being Italian and knowing Serie A very well. Managers like Marcelino might have been a better choice for long projects, but we’re looking for instant impact and he can give that. His salary is reportedly rather low, lower than De Boer’s and way lower than Mancini’s. His contact also goes until 2018, which is the year when Simeone’s contract runs out with AM. Best possible scenario, he takes over for next 1.5 season and then we switch to Simeone, unless Pioli wins us Scudetto or something.
Notice that mancini also came in before derby.
where is walter samuel??
I guess no Samuel. Will be great should he join the coaching staff.
He’s not part of PIOLIS staff, but is someone PIOLI is being paired with by the club!
Welcome to Inter Pioli. The best of luck for you in this adventure. Not my favorite one among the choices, but you’ll have my support as an Interista.
