Motta - Chiellini - Bonucci - De Ceglie

Krasic - Melo - Marchisio - Pepe/Martinez

Quag - Del Piero/Amauri

Judging by our players it seems we'll use a lot of strength this season. Maybe our style will be different from other Italian teams and maybe they'll get to play like English clubs? It does look like it's doable with this team and it's why I like it. I didn't bold Motta but he too isn't weak.

Not according to some over here who thought last seasons squad was stronger than Inters :D
I remember the optimism in here when in the last day of the mercato we signed Grosso through a FAX. Haling Secco as a genius. :D

Though I never agreed with that kind of optimisim, I still feel that there was much more in our squad last season. We could have sucked less.

Not true. Most of the members in here wanted Secco to get a LB to replace Molinaro in the starting line up to finish the mercato with a positive hit, even if it was the mighty Grosso.

Not true. A lot of people were happy with Grosso's signing.

Of course not. It didn't help that players who were supposed to be top players, flopped horribly last season. Diego and Melo were supposed to deliver.

The danger in our current team is that we lack creativity.

Having pace down the wings and playing crosses for the strikers, can leave us short of options. Like against Bari.

We had no penetration from the middle, so Bari easily anticipated our attacks. Diego would have been very useful even as SS, as he could open up the defense.

I hope Aquillani can bring more midfield danger, but it seems that against defense minded teams, we are clueless. No spark player. We will struggle against teams we can't counter attack, those who defend in numbers.

After 4 seasons, our team just gets worse and worse. I can't imagine what Ranieri would do with our current directors as support.

We are a team with alot of pace (on the wings) and not enough creativity.

And yes, we desperately need a LB, I have hope that Motta can be better. But De Ceglie is not fit to play LB, I'd choose Molinaro over him any day.

I really don't like it. To many not established players and not enough quality!

for now, melo instead of marchisio tho

benzema instead of boriello, and let him come back like sneijder did. with a good coach i'm shure he could

having said that, they should also get a replacement for del neri

Krasic - Aquilani - Melo/Marchisio - Pepe/Martinez

This midfield has potential to be very strong. Maybe even 2nd to none. Our striking department sucks, and the defense has something to prove.

All in all, we can do well, but we really have to be organized and we cant afford any of the midfielders and defenders not to perform.

Right now, is this the likely best XI?

DP - Quag
Pepe - Aquilani - Marchisio - Krasic
Traore - Chiellini - Bonucci - Motta
Storari​

Or is Aquilani out too?
It's going to be a tough season trying to keep up with the mercenaries of Milan. I'm hoping Robinho ruins that team to relegation.
