Inter Milan Thread (2004 - 2005)

[Yossarian]

I've always been a big fan of Frey, so it's kinda of a dilemma for me, but Carini has put on some great performances in most of his starts and is deserving of more consistent play. I don't know if we could have 'em both as they're 25 and 26 years old respectively. It would be hard to convince either one of these highly skilled goalies who are just hitting their peak ages as goalies to accept a subordinate role to the other after Toldo leaves/retires.


¿?

 

[Yossarian]

Rumour has it that the main ultra group of Lazio have in their possession a Mancini sextape in which he's violently ******* a duck, a male duck up the ass and that they've reproduced this potential career ending tape into all video/audio formats known to man. No one really knows what sort of an effect this will have on the outcome of the big clash tomorrow in Rome, but many are wagering on either a draw in which Lazio dominates the game for the better part of the 90mins, or a Royal....errr check that, a proper Fascist ass-whupping by Lazio.


Ahhhh, man, ahhh, man, ahhhh, man! ****, ****, ****, ****! We're screwed in more ways than one with this being levelled on us out of nowhere....****.

 

[ForzaNerrazurri]

what the ****....there is no way Lazio is going to dominate Inter...They might make it tough, but Lazio won't make life too hard for Inter

 

[TheBlueBalla]

would you all be opposed in any way to Cudicinni? Carlo is smallish, and capable of the occasional stinker, but he is well above average, one of the best penalty stoppers in the world, and could be had pretty cheap. The guy wants to go back to mother Italia, and we will not be selling him domestically. Hey, he could be a good option in case Frey gets scooped up, and it looks like he will have a bidding war over him come the summer

 

[SB9Dragon]

Cudicini is past 30 and on his way up right? I guess he could be a good option, but to be honest I'm starting to hope that Carini becomes our #1. He's been playing well and not to mention that we did have to lose Canna to get him. Perhaps if he explodes it will makeup for that deal.

BTW against Lazio I'm expecting victory. And atleast 1 Adriano goal to boot.

If your Carini fella becomes a bona fide number one, all the better for it as hes already yours. Maybe strengthening the defense that much more will help him make the adjustment next season. Inter just strikes many Chelsea fans as a great landing spot for Cudicini because he supposedly wants to go back home, deserves a starting spot, and at 31, hes not too old for a GK. Anyway, summer will decide all that.
Good luck against Lazio. Dont wanna see them relegated, but heres hoping you get a win and get that much closer to ensuring a spot in europe next season.

Edit; Sure sure Yossarian. I, like alot of other peope, want to see Inter break this Scudetto hex very much. Its like they say: Curses are made to be broken. Or maybe thats rules, but oh well

Thanks for your support, man.

This is the partnership I'm lookin' for upfront, Mancini....you better come through with it, or else.......

 

[Yossarian]

Dig the balance.....hurhur...5bucks says that he fell milliseconds after that shot was taken

 

[Mikey]

With Favalli out of the Porto match (suspension) i wouldnt be surprised if Mancio starts Coco at LB today, to get him in game shape for Tuesday.

I hope VDM can get a start as well, and Adriano can score a real goal to get his confidence back for tuesday when along with Martins, terrorize Jorge Costa into retirement.

 

[Yossarian]

****! Those pics from Inter.it.......why do they always end up disappearing on me?

 

[Yossarian]

hmmm......must be my puter/browser because one of them has reappeared while the other one is still doing a Houdini on me.

Yep, I hope so too. Fava beans has been cleared fit for this match against Lazio so we can never be too sure if he'll start Coco, I mean, he's had plenty of chances to do so already (Coco has been playing with the Primavera for the longest time now...he's fit enough) but Mancini always chooses to switch Zanetti to the left instead of bringing in Coco.

 

[ForzaNerrazurri]

Favalli and Cordoba are going to miss tuesday's game through suspension....and COCO played like CACA today... it was horrible....Hell I would rather see Burdisso play, with Zanetti, Ze Maria and Mihajlovic/Materazzi.

I really hope Martins and Vieri are going to be back into shape for Tuesday's game....we seriously need them

Other: Mourinho was in the stands obviously for one thing...Adriano, but it doesn't seem like anything is going to happen..

Cut 'em some slack, man. Don't crucify him after one performance. He's never been that great a passer in his career anyway.

Martins, yes, Vieri, hopefully not. Cruz should have priority over Vieri for the Porto game. He's the second best striker we have in our squad. A mixture of Adriano and Vieri plus a few traits of his own.

He was probably scouting our entire squad but mostly Veron to see if he's worth calling back next year or something. But if they are seriously considering Adriano, I wouldn't mind a deal involving Drogba plus 20million euros.

 

[diroix]

emre will leave inter at the end of this year he said it on a turkish tv..he said that he has good offers from english and spanish teams and he wants to go one of them..

 

[ForzaNerrazurri]

Not too surprised with that.

Veron looks like he's going to stay at Inter, and they are in the process of trying to sign Cesar from Lazio.

Emre deserves to be in a first team on a regular basis, he is a good, hard working midfielder, that can play almost any midfield position

 

[diroix]

i think emre will go to arsenal because his manager said he has an offer from arsenal..
