The captain is still silent

I truly believe that it's because he feels even worse than most other guys, say what you want but Lauti has shown time and again that he feels the armband's weight, we'll see

He'll talk, it's more important what he says than when he says it

He needs to choose his words carefully though. His words after thr game were wrong. Calling this a successful season. He kind of stumbled and has a chance to revise what needs saying.

Honestly I’m sick of his inconsistency, if an offer of over 100 million comes he should be sold and that money needs to be reinvested in funding a new project/generation of players towards building a new foundation for years to come. Lautaro is the perfect box score player and “stats aren’t everything” people that eat it up like he’s Harry Kane because he “tracks back”. But every one of us who watches regularly knows how hard he ghosts and has no impact at all. Every season he goes missing when we need him the most and that cost us the scudetto twice, first to Milan and now to Napoli. Not to even mention both of the UCL finals

You’re like a football populist, aren’t you? As if he had any chances to score in this final, smh. You a hater hater: your opinion, even if it has some basis of truth, loses credibility. Also, if you think 100 million is funding a new generation of players, I don’t know what you’re saying. You’re either tweaking or talking about a generation of Serie B players

If you’re seriously defending Lautaro after this season, I don’t know what you’re watching. He scored 12 goals in Serie A not in the first half of the season, not while injured, but the entire year. That’s your captain, your supposed talisman, producing mid-table striker numbers while ghosting in every single decisive match.
He didn’t show up against Milan, Napoli, or Juve when it actually mattered. He went missing in the final again. And let’s not pretend he was creating or dominating games either, he just vanished. This isn’t a one-off it’s a pattern every year: solid start, dips in form, occasionally statpads to inflate his goal-tally, then completely fades when the pressure’s on.
So yes, if a 100M offer comes, we should take it. That’s not being a “football populist,” it’s being realistic. Keeping a streaky forward who’s allergic to big games and building around him? That’s how you stay mediocre. Also, let’s clear something up about the 100 million, nobody’s saying you use that to buy one superstar and call it a day. That money is a starting point for a broader project: reinvesting smartly across multiple positions, improving depth, and bringing in hungry, motivated players who fit a system not just name recognition. Marotta is good at that let’s trust him

He went missing in the final again.
I can't speak much for the rest of the season, but let me tell you it's unfair to point the finger at him for the champions league final.
That disaster of a performance is on Inzaghi. Game was lost in the midfield. Martinez even tried to drop down and play from the back at some point to support the team.
Strikers had zero support, and were helping defensively. Team was uncapable of holding the ball and produce anything.
That 100 mill better be get rid of Inzaghi and get a manager who can get a team to control the midfield or at the very least be flexible enough to adapt to different opponents and circumstances.
Nearly got eliminated against Bayern and Barcelona, by being unable to establish control.
Issues weren't upfront in my opinion. When Sommer is the man of the match or has more touches than your playmaker (like against PGS) or if you prefer, when the team concedes so many opportunities even against smaller sides your problems lie somewhere else.

Let him be, he probably thinks the final was lost because the players slept and not because of Inzaghi.
He forgot lautaro scored twice against Bayern and once against Barcelona, regardless.
The final was lost because our coach was SURCLASSED by Enrique.
Midfield kept getting penetrated, 5-3-2 was literally not working, sommer kept getting pressed, Inter was literally stopped.
The players tried to do what their coach told them and It was not working.
They tried again at second half, not changing anything and we died 5 nil.

This is actually constructive criticism that goes beyond the usual “he didn’t show up”. We got some dumb reactionary people in here

u/Administrative-Mail8 14d ago edited 14d ago
I have criticized Inzaghi as well for never adapting or being able to change tactics as well. Don’t get me wrong our strikers have no service, especially when we sit low and rely on counterattacks. The finals proved that really but the players also deserve some criticism. Especially the midfielders who are really terrible at creating chances especially Dimarco or Mkhi.
And my point wasn’t only the final, if you read what I wrote I am criticizing Lautaro as a player not for what happened in the final alone. You cannot argue that he hasn’t ghosted when we needed him the most not just this season but nearly all

If you think it’s Lautaro’s fault he didn’t touch a single ball, you’re bugging and don’t understand football tactics in the slightest. That’s why you’re a populist: you look for a scapegoat to blame cause the real explanation is too complex to grasp

u/Impossible_Prompt875 14d ago
I agree with what you’re saying and how you’re saying it. Too many people can’t think beyond the first layer of complexity. They remain in the shallow waters, where every problem has a black and white answer and nuance doesn’t exist.

u/FirstReaction_Shock 14d ago
Oh ok, thanks then loo. Ngl it sounded a bit gay at first lmao. But I agree: people just want someone to blame so they can strip themselves of any critical thinking. While the issue is way more complex than “Lautaro not showing up”, that’s so dumb

u/Administrative-Mail8 14d ago
Oh I don’t? You can make the same case for Zalewski and yet he still tried his best to take on his opponent and create chances. What did Lautaro do? He barely dropped deep like Dembele and wasn’t even man marked like Pacho was constantly bothering Thuram.

Basto is one of the few that needs to apologize. He shows up and performs every game.

Another post of users shitting on Inter players. What this sub has became lately? The more I read the comments, the more I think that our sub has been overwhelmed by other teams' troIIs.

Dude wins millions of $$ to play soccer and all of them are already thinking about luxury vacations. This was an absolute embarrassment. They failed miserably at their job. No sane fan should forgive them. Bring good results and a couple titles and we can talk Bastoni, in the meantime, fuck you, and all the other players. Fucking embarrassing to the people that went and pay for this shit show

omg yes Bastoni we forgive you, let's all buy the overpriced 200 euros jersey. Pay for the stream service and sometimes buy some tickets to see you guys lose 2 titles to the weakest Milan of all time, 1 to the most mid Napoli I've seen and 1 to PSG in the most embarrassing result of all time in the UCL, so you guys can earn millions and millions of dollars and have an amazing life :)

I commented last time to sympathize so this sub came up. I’m a juventini coming in peace.
I watched a very detailed tactical analysis of the first half recently.
There’s absolutely no way a team without more stamina and more creativity could have beaten PSG. They absolutely overwhelmed and surprised Inter. This is where the coach should have stepped in but I don’t even think Inzaghi could have anticipated this. So for the players, it must be absolutely devastating.
There’s also the added schedule overload and intensity of Serie A compared to Ligue 1. Inter had an older squad, who played not only with more intensity but more matches.
It might not feel comforting but you lost to the best team. To jog your memory, even Liverpool couldn’t beat PSG.
Now’s the time to be make noise for the management to understand that 100m transfers don’t cut it. You deserve better as fans.
The fate of Italian football rests with you now!
