Inter’s Chinese ownership will come to Milan this weekend in order to be part of the decision making for the new coach replacing Frank De Boer. The Italian soul of the club (Gardini, Ausilio and Zanetti) is pushing for an Italian profile with Stefano Pioli in pole position. Suning Group however also has eyes on a foreign option such as Hiddink, Martino, Marcelino, Villas-Boas, Blanc and Leonardo. This reported from Sky Sport journalist Gianluca Di Marzio.

Pioli is another coach with zero charisma or motivational skills.
He would be a weird pick tbh, highlight of his entire coaching career was 3rd place with Lazio… Other than that he has done absolutely nothing.
Hopefully Suning vetoes him.
Have a feeling Pioli will be good for any normal Italian teams, but this is Inter and everything will be harder and more complicated.
pick the VP as our coach.. ups, he has’nt the license
My beloved inter….has now become the NY knicks of italy. smdh
I hope Leonardo comes in for the rest of the season then we make sure we get Simeone in the summer. Or at least Blanc in the summer.Leonardo doesn’t want to be a long term coach so that is what we need right now.
leanardo will make us get relegated
i dunno about that…he did pretty well with us last time out
which is why [if he was smart] he probably wont come back lol
don’t forget leonardo had a post treble winning squad, who knew how to win. the current players are all crap and they all have a pretty weak mentality, he doesn’t have the experience to turn things around trust me
i wouldnt say our squad is crap but yes they are weak mentaly! look at some of the players we have. we should be a force to be wreckoned with. instead we are hot garbage. i think the thing about about Leonardo is that he has great relationships with the players and would be able to get the respect/control of the locker room.
Surprised there’s no Andrea Mandorlini name on the list. He is available and know Serie A well, also he is well known Interista. I think our GM Giovanni Gardini know him well.
Leonardo is interesting option too, with his high percentage of win ratio last time he was here, he could be very good option. Despite it is been a while he manage a team since then.
Capello…convince him
R u on drugs or r u lost. Capello is a joke who coached juve/ac when corruption was rife he got his wins because of moggi dealings . Cappello what a fucking joke.
Oh…you’re so smart. So he didn’t do anything with his Roma and Real Madrid. Yes, you’re right man. I’m clearly stupid. My bad.
Dude that Real Madrid team had galacticos, cm on bro anyone that managed them would have been successful. Did he win the league with roma. I don’t think so
meh
to fire Thohir?
Now that we have no choice since Franky is gone..
Leonardo please. He already done the “caretaker” position for Inter. And left with positive results and a trophy. Many of the big names will want long contracts which would be dumb for Inter, since they want to hire Simeone this summer.
Yes he did – 6 years ago!!!! Since then he hasn’t coached at all!!
fuck Leonardo
Who would you recommend?
Im sick and tired of the “year zero” crap, and if we get someone in now who’s job it is to take acre of the team until june and then wait for a new big-name coach to come in, we´ll have another “year zero” ahead of us in the summer, where the new coach (talks about Simeone) would need time to make his team gel and for his ideas to catch on!
I would like us to show we haven’t given up on this season yet and that we have a serious idea on how to run a club but getting in a quality coach NOW, someone with a name and let him work with the squad for the rest of the season and his ideas. Let him buy the players HE needs in January and next summer so that next season everything is ready for him and his new squad!!
My ideal coach would be Blanc!
If you sack De Boer than at least bring in some heavyweight such as Blanc. But he is also a non-Italian. Maybe they prefer an Italian coach.
Blanc doesn’t have experience in Série A and he really didn’t impress much with a studded squad in PSG
Blanc is ex inter player. He knows Serie A. Besides he did not bad at PSG he won the league three times I think. Only in CL was bit off by reaching Quarter final which is not a shame with teams like Barca, Bayern and Real.
1st) Zanetti is not italian lol and 2nd)?what has an italian coach done for us lately? Or in my lifetime
Exactly! After Leonardo, we’ve been hiring only Italian coaches. That didn’t really help.
People always think we never won title after Mourinho’s era, the truth is we never won title after Leonardo’s departure (he revived us from Benitez’s failure, won 2nd place, and won Coppa Italy)
The Author said “Italian Soul”, so I’m guessing he might have said that because of his years living and playing in Italy, and therefore having an Italian mentality for soccer.
Plus Capitano has an Italian passport!
lol nope not gonna let that slide either. Italian soul my ass. An “inter Soul” yea but when has inter ever given a shit about an “Italian Soul”.
Omg ok lol i understand why the author said it no need to explain it i just disagree with his reasoning for saying it. Zanetti is not italian, nedved is not italian, seedorf is not Italian. Messi isnt spanish, Milito isnt italian, cambiasso isnt italian. Do you get my point? Lol wtf is an “Italian soul” the author made that up to fit his bullshit argument that inter has ever cared for an italian spirit. Which has never been the case. The team was invented because we didn’t care for an italian spirit
I don’t know why people like Pioli so much. His first year at Lazio was good but his second was terrible. And he had a terrible relationship with Candreva.
My preferred choice is Blanc. Former Inter player, good coach, his teams have balance between defence and attack and he knows how to handle dressing room. He didn’t have any issues with much bigger egos in PSG so i doubt he would have in here. I don’t think we can find someone better right now.
Hiddink could be a short term solution but a risk. Villas Boas failed at both Chelsea and Tottenham after spending huge amounts of money so i doubt he would succeed in here.
And Leonardo isn’t even a coach.
marcelino is an interesting option though
Yeah. I like him a lot as well.
Blanc only wants long term contract, but our stupid management only wants a caretaker until a “savior” called Diego Simeone come next year.
I don’t know why people are so optimistic abou Simeone coming to Inter in 2017. He has a contract with Atletico until 2018. I would be ok with a caretaker only if Zanetti has already in his hands a contract signed by Simeone for 2017.
you skipped to mention villa boas did good before Chelsea and spurs and after it in Russia, you only mentioned the negative parts about him, he is much older and much more experienced now , but blanc is the best coach for us now however it makes someone coming to us harder
Most coaches succeed at Porto. It has to do with the club, not with the coaches. And Russian League is much weaker than Serie A.
It’s official de boer has been fired by Inter lol
