Not me man. Its from an Inter board so dont shoot the messenger.

Also, its not Mourinho's fault that he thought that he was buying gold and got shit in Quaresma and Mancini. Both were massive failures but it doesnt matter... he WON the league which made Moratti happy and is on course to win another this season. Mourinho actually has competition which Mancini doesnt... Mancini loses to the likes of Stoke City which I am pretty sure Mourinho would have not done.

In short. Mourinho >>>> Mancini.

Again not accurate , Mancio won the league after Cali. and after it when Juve was promoted .

And i don't know what gave you that impression that Moratti is happy for winning the league !!? he didn't get Mourinho for Serie A .. Mancio was doing a superb job in that as everyone know and the Interista on board will confirm it for you .. he brought him for the CL which he failed and till now he could fail again .
And wtf are you saying Jatin ? Mancini won 3 serie A title (exclude one for the scandal and make it 2 ) , won the Cup and reach the final in twice in a row afterwards he also won the super cup 3 times .
Mourinho won the league , lost the cup and lost in the super cup .. there is no contest

and yeah Mancini lost to stoke , Mourinho just lost to Panathanicos in san Siro , to Atlanta & to Cagliari ... :rolleyes:

you can't see anything except your man crush on the dude

I think Beast is a little too hard on Mourinho but to be honest, besides the 15 minutes during the game where Inter really, really press the opposition, they are fucking boring. Especially without Sniejder (who I admire a lot). I would say this is a transitional period for Mourinho. If he is given one more year would see how far this team would come especially if Mario comes through and matures. I think Mourinho is doing a good job with him however, he needs a little more love.

Mourinho failing in the CL is still in the balance until 3 weeks. If they go through Chelsea then we would safely assume that this Inter is on the right track years! Even if they do not win the CL, beating Chelsea is huge for Inter. However, getting the away goal first is hard enough :lol:

I will reserve my judgment, he may not be the best tactically and personally he just is not happy. I don't think we have seen the best of Mourinho at Inter yet and age is still on his side.

Mancini on the other hand isn't as bad as people make him out to be but I have a feeling his technical approach to the game will not be well understood by Manchester City :lol: Tactically he was okay, I mean he always had a good starting line up but struggled with substitutions (if his super sub wasn't available). But he knows football and how it is played as a player, if his ideas come through we will see a very good team next year with City.

Glad to see Inter finally win and score in the knock out round. Definitely a step forward for us. I just read the whole argument between HoF and Beast, will post my thoughts/figures later on.

First of all, we definitely did not make much on the transfer market. The money we got from Ibra sale is simply reinvested and perhaps a small profit. Mourinho's first transfer season is VERY BAD, the money spent on Quaresma & Mancini is basically down the drain and Muntari cannot be considered as a success buy. But his second transfer season is great so far. Sneijder, Milito, Pandev, and Lucio already proving their worth. I have faith in Eto'o as well.

There are couple of reasons Inter decided to hire Mourinho and fire Mancini. Towards the end of the season of 2007-08, Mancini is clearly losing it. His famous i-quit-speech after Liverpool defeat made him look like a clown and hurt the squad morale badly. Inter threw away double digit lead in the league before clinching the Scudetto on the last match. Many players are at odd with Mancini at that point and it could well end up like Cuper situation if Inter decided to continue with him for another season. It is true that Mourinho was brought in to make Inter advance in CL but please do not overlook the fact that retaining the Scudetto could have been hard with Mancini at helm. Another important reason is that the Inter squad clearly need discipline and passion, Mourinho definitely succeeded in bringing that.

Mourinho's first season with Inter is slight above mediocre, he managed to retain the Scudetto but failed at the transfer market and did not make much improvement in Europe. However, the defeat against Liverpool is completely different with the defeat against Man Utd. Inter was more of a team under him and could have really make the situation complex if Ibra scored that header. This season is looking to be great so far, he made a number of correct transfers and we are on course to retain the Scudetto. Not to mention beating Chelsea...

Overall, I am happy with the appointment of Mourinho. Mancini really had to go at the end of 2007/08 and I believe Mourinho did a good job in 2 years. We are retaining Scudetto while making solid improvements in Europe, I think this Inter will even advance further with him.

If I were an Inter fan I'd hate his guts, he's a narcissistic twat and he doesn't even want to be your coach whoring himself out to the Epl every chance he gets

I have to say 2-1 is way better for Inter than Chelsea. I see Chelsea eliminated. A Sneijder Freekick or a Milito-Pandev counter attack duo would turn everything for Inter's favor. Definitely Inter didn't play that well yesterday but at least they got what they went for. 2-1 is huge. I think Mourinho will attack in Stamford Bridge especially in the very first minutes. They have a more organized team although I still wonder that even with Drogba and Anelka being shit all night, Chelsea looked really fast, strong and just needed better finishing, which just proves how good EPL teams are. Anyway,Drogba needs to have faster movements because his movements are heavy and next time Lucio won't be tired as he was yesterday ( because of the Sampdoria match), so, I'm guessing a 2-2 in Stamford Bridge.

2-2 in the Stamford bridge?

If we get one away goal that is more than what we can hope for given Inter's atrocious away form.

I think weekends Serie A action will determine Inter success. If there is still a perception that Inter have a fight on their hands for the league, (like Chelsea), then they won't be able to give their all as blowing the league from a 9 point lead in Feb would be unacceptable. We shall see how it pans out.

It was, but it is impossible for them to not win Serie A and not look very foolish, regardless of how they do in the CL. It would be like the Lazio year all over again.
