I will never forget how Totti bullied him that one time and scored against us.
Remember that one time that Pellisier had a field day against us? Or that Lanzafame put 2 past us? What about Balotelli?....

So Totti beat him, that means we shouldn't get him?

It's not that Totti beat him, it's how he beat him, he made him look like a 7th grader..

I don't like him as a defender. He's too small, he just doesn't give me confidence.

Indeed, it was quite embarassing. Maybe due to a lack of experience though.


That was nearly three years ago, he was 20 years old then.
See, the problem is not that we don't trust / play young players. The problem is that they don't perform when given the chance :D

I'm not complaining about what happened 3years ago. Just saying.

I don't trust him. I think he's overrated and not a player you can depend on. To become a great defender in Serie A you have to be solid physically before anything else (Cannavaro, Nesta, Maldini, Zambrotta, Baresi, Billy, Ferrara, Montero, Igor, Javier, Samuel, Chivu etc)... Criscito can get killed facing Rooney/Iaquinta.

Meh, could be, but I think it's mainly due to his physique. Either way, it left a bad taste in my mouth. I wouldn't mind getting him, but he's definitely not my first choice.

Exactly. I wanted to write I like defenders big, mean and tough. :D

I also wouldn't mind giving him a new chance.

But I can't say I really trust him myself. The way I see it he was a big question mark 3 years ago & he still is one today.

Well when Kolarov is out there then obviously Criscito wouldn't be a first choice. But when it comes to an upgrade vs what we have or can afford then getting Criscito back makes "economic sense". BUT, that said, if we don't mind shelling out 17m on the Serb then that's fine by me.

I wouldn't mind re-loaning Caceres and spend a lot on a LB and CB then next summer go for a RB. Rafinha comes to mind. If Genoa are ambitious enough to try and sign him then there is no reason why we can't either.

Rafa deal was done but someone decided to get either Del Neri or Prandelli, wont we look like dumb fucks if Rafa goes to inter and wins another title while we are struggling just to get a champions league spot, the shit is all on his shoulders :anon:

Whatever the coach that comes will have massive amounts of money to spend after this year. If Inter doesn't win the title again next year I will be very surprised, regardless of the coach.
