What?

Fair! I dont agree that its simply Chiellini making him look good and I'd doubt that a coach would sacrifice the Chiellini Bonucci pairing thats worked so well for so long, so easily. But thats all hypothetical.

I think of him as a good offensive coach and our squad is at the top top level (even better than last year's). I think we will win the scudetto and exit in quarter/semis when we face a big team but the football we play along the way will be more enjoyable than what we saw before. Conte is a wild card magician but I feel the gap is just far too big for his effect to get this Inter and edge us.
So I expect results to be the same as under Allegri but the style to be better.

Agree completely.
Conte is a Great Manager. But his tactic is very rigid. He believes in 3 CB especially 3-5-2. He won with Chelsea using 3-4-3 but the next year he is back using 3-5-2.
I also thought this was the reason we don't try to get Conte returned. We really need to sell a lot of players and buy a lot also

Both Conte and Sarri are in the CL this year, lets see how they do. I expect Inter to exit into Europa League, the real test for them is when they're chasing in a game because Conte is too stubborn to change tactics and there you'll see the lack of quality players. Sanchez is absolute trash, I don't think Conte would've asked for someone collecting big ass cheques without doing anything useful. Also, if we beat Napoli at the weekend we become the favourites for the league just like that.
On Icardi, I dont know, I made the Iaquinta reference for this reason only, he didnt play, wasnt part of the team, still getting paid, etc. You said Conte never played Iaquinta so I thought you meant that despite not playing Iaquinta he will play Icardi...
On Sanchez, I hesitated between a Krasic and an Eljero Elia, but decided on the serb as he was actually good once, of course cannot compare with Sanchez good level two years and more ago. And yeah, if somehow this old Sanchez returns, merda will look scary in attack. But I doubt it, since its merda we're talking about, they are like Italy's Man Utd or Utd are like English Inter, once they get a player he is bound to perform worse than before in his previous team..
In short, I dont believe that Sanchez will do more good than harm for the team, but I could be wrong and Conte could actually make him a solid soldier and a heavy weapon. We'll see..

Inter and Napoli upped their mercato game this year, they feel it's their moment to shine, as we are in our most vulnerable position.
They have great defense and even better attack, but their midfield sux, even more than ours. (Roma's too)
That's strange because Italy always provided decent players there and there are plenty of options abroad too.
Both Conte and Carlo play defensive football and with that midfield the game will be ugly.
We are doomed to be the shining beacon once again!
