Capello? If I had to choose between him and either Conte, Ferrara, Delneri or Zaccheroni, I'd take Capello. But ideally, I want a coach who we can stick with for years to come and who can give us some kind of continuity. I don't even know if Capello would take this squad to a top 2 finish.

Yeah, they also gave Allegri Zlatan Ibrahimovic when he arrived. You know, just to get things started. Marotta's failures will all fall on Conte which is sad.
Zlatan scored 14 goals, as much as Robinho lol ..my point ? All our team should step it up. We can't win by counting on one player.

Marotta failed to deliver something equal to expectations, true. But can you tell me with a straight face that our squad did not improve drastically ?

Before you mention missing out on a CB, we'll get him in January. Rhodolfo's agent confirmed it. Which is perfect for Bonucci, let's see if he can prove himself worthy of the shirt.


Don't worry the next person to be sacked is in fact Marotta and not Conte if we fail.

Well if Capello were here we would have different players.

Probably different but if it would still be Marotta negotiating so I don't know how much better. I'm sure Conte didn't pick Estigarribia and Elia himself and would've preferred better players--he was probably given some names and told to choose from that.

I can tell you that I don't think we improved DRASTICALLY. We improved, but not drastically. 100 million should give drastic changes.

Compared to our starting 11 last season. Yes we did.

Yes...I know...we know..I agree..we agree.. Marotta wasted the money and could've bought better players. But with the current team we're way better than last year.

Drop the money wasting already and look at the lineup.

How can I drop the money thing? Are you serious?

Are you ?

It's just a convenient thing to say to avoid admitting we have a better team than last year.

I already told you we agree on the money wasting issue so stop bringing it up and avoiding the MAIN discussion.

As someone said so aptly, we are a Lichtsteiner injury away from last season's defence of 57 conceded.
Him getting injured would be a disaster, It would affect Krasic going forward too.

But who knows what Conte could do with the backline ? Inter are conceding goals with the same defense that was a brick wall with Mourinho.

Say what you people want about Capello, but the man breeds success

We should get Wenger or Deschamps and give them full control over transfers. Just get a puppet, anyone, to act like a SD.
