    Cesare Maldini on Al-Jazeera sport: "Terrible Mang from Milan. They didn't announce Kaka or inform about anything concerning Man. City. He arrived Friday to the training and he only read through newspapers about this. He went to Galliani shocked and upset for not even asking him."

    Well, we are closer than ever, indeed. However, the mystery remains, if Inter screws, somehow we don't manage to take a good advantage of it.

    Lol at Inter, they completely self destructed in the first 20 minutes. The only question on my mind is, who's the better defender, Senderos or Burdisso?? :D

    Mourinho is not made for the Serie A imo. A less challenging league tactically like the Liga or the EPL maybe, but not the Serie A. The amount of matches were he's outsmarted and outplayed tactically by other coaches is not even funny. And people are quickly forgetting that all his transfers were unsuccessful. He can get away with it in Inter because they have a much more superior squad anyway, or like the Jackman would call it "Because he has better core players":D

    I questioned whether Mourinho was tactically astute enough to succeed in Serie A back in the summer, but I was shouted down. :rndh:

    i still fail to see what he keeps whining on about being special and successful, in all honesty fair enough with porto, eventhough he had a much easier run than deschamps Monaco who defeated madrid and chelsea along the way, other than that he really doesn't impress me, i mean wtf is this gung ho 2-3-5 formation he deploys when it gets desperate. its tactical suicide, maybe not in england but certainly in italy.

    Imo Mourinho is a motivator much more than he is a tactican. He's a great coach, theres no doubt about that. But Special One he is not, what would you call Alex Ferguson or Marcelo Lippi then?

    they will but i can still see them knocking man utd out simply because of the physical strength of inter's mid in comparison to man utd's
    Man Utd's defense is stronger than you give them credit for. Plus they're a clinical team, they don't need a lot of chances to finish you off. That was evident from their past 4 matches barring Chelsea, where they barely created any chances but won the game nonetheless.

    Well I mentioned that Mourinho is overrate way before that, at his best time, and I even dared to tell that he is not even in top 5 of the best managers around, at his best days, well same thing happened to me, I was shouted down too..

    I will love to see him fail in Serie A with a great squad he has, he will get owned in CL very soon anyway..
