I still have faith in Inter and Mancini, and always will, but your article made me think about it. And now that i think about it, this is almost the same start to the season as last season.

Fair points Andrei. The match fixing did help, but wasn’t the full reason for league success.

You’re quite right about Mancini. Thinking about things, I’m losing more and more confidence in him , but, as I said, I’ll wait for things to play out.

Chelsea’s next manager will be Sir Alex Ferguson.

Our next manager is a Yes-man for Roman and someone who will only care to play for the Champions League.

Wow! That sounds a lot like Rafa Benitez! Just kidding…

neazurri, may i remind you that the reason you were so good is because you got ibrahimovich and vieira from juve…. if juventus were still in seria a, inter would have had more competition.

but i do not really follow the italian league anymore so i should not argue, all i know is that inter would not be as good as they are if they did not have ibra and vieira and mancini’s tactics are worrying, remember when stankovich had to clear off the goal line to prevent milan from bouncing back from three goals down? sounds like bad tactics to me…

@Andrei
I’m not sure it’ll be by the next international break but i certainly think Abramovich will want someone in before the season ends as it will help settle the players.

As for the ‘exodus’ i think at the moment its just headline grabbing as the majority of players have a good number of years left on their contracts. They’re also on very good wages and unless they have a major clash of personalities with the new coach (after Avrim) then they’re more likely to stay.

Obviously there’s a big question over Lampard as he still hasn’t signed a new contract. It might also depend on where Mourinho ends up next and if he come back for the likes of Carvalho or Drogba

“The Italian champions have every reason to be unhappy with their current manager, Mancini. Although he led them to the title last season, their first in 18 years, he could not do it without the help of a match-fixing scandal.” BULLS***!

Did you see how good we were in the league last season? If all the teams had their points back, we would still have won by 21 points.

Mancini has done great domestically, but in Europe, I agree, he isn’t good enough. He hasn’t proved it anyway, and I hate to say that because he helped turn us around.

Mourinho should fit the bill, but he’ll bring way too much publicity, especially bad publicity! He is a great manager, but usually a b*****ks as well.

I’m going to let it play out, as I’m sure Inter know how to handle all the rumours and anything else.
