QUOTE (X-Offender @ Jun 18 2011, 09:13 PM)  I wouldn't underestimate Mihajlovic if I were you. But it looks like Marco Branca is currently in Oporto to negotiate for Villas Boas. Mihajlovic? Why would we overestimate him as well? What has he done to be praised so far? Everywhere he went so far he ended up being sacked or just near that. |

Haha, there was a discusion about this very same topic on some TV channel tonight, and Maura Suma (Milan Channel director) went on defending Mihajlovic stating some very good points. The Fiorentina of last season had probably the weakest squad of the last 4-5 years. Their summer signing campaign was pathetic. They had a shitload of injuries, including their best player, Jovetic. They had the Mutu issue to deal with. Many of their "stars" failed to meet the expectations. Not to mention Mihajlovic had to replace someone like Prandelli, which isn't easy.
Let's make it clear, I've never liked Mihajlovic, but the guy did the best he could given the situation at hand. |

Well, that's a pretty fluid thing - I mean - obviously he did the best he could given the situation because we never will find out what else could have had been done instead.
Anyway, I get your/Suma's point, but is it enough for a club with ambitions like Inter? I don't think so. His other two jobs previous to Fiorentina can't be defended in the same way. May it turn out wrong, but I don't get why we should rate Mihajlovic at this point? Maybe he'll turn out fine, his sh@tty mentality is very much compatible with Inters. To me it's just a bonus, a nice cream on the cake - in hating Inter. |

I never intended that he's a good choice for Inter. That debate is open for discussion.

He was unimpressive also before Fiorentina and I don't rate him highly at all. He's welcome to join them, this is much better choice for us than AVB, who I hope will remain at Porto.

So, Genoa has officially announced Alberto Malesani as their new coach. I'm not sure about it. Malesani is a good fireman, he can handle the pressure with teams bound for relegation or mid-table. The one time he was in a team with actual potential (Parma), he didn't do well. We'll see.

QUOTE Italian news channels are claiming the Nerazzurri have contacted English football’s governing body about appointing the much-maligned manager as Leonardo's successor.
The former Real Madrid coach is hardly flavour of the month among supporters or FA chiefs, and the opportunity to recoup a pay-off for the man who costs them an estimated £5million-a-year in wages could be too much to resist. Inter president Massimo Moratti already eluded to the fact that Capello could be on their agenda, and now it seems he’s ready to pounce for the man who’s lifted seven Serie A titles as manager. ‘There is always a favourite, but until you get everything in place there are a thousand conditions that can determine whether or not you actually get a particular coach,’ Moratti stated. ‘The chances of Luciano Spalletti [Zenit], Guus Hiddink and Fabio Capello? We'll see and discuss that in due course.’ If Inter succeed in luring Capello away from Soho Square, Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp, who's widely tipped to replace the Italian anyway after Euro 2012, would be installed as immediate favourite to take over. |

I really hope this doesn't happen. We'll find out in the next 24 hours.

So, seems like Juventus officially signed Lichtsteiner from Lazio for 1 million Euros. That's a bargain deal IMO.
Maybe this will give us a chance to sell Oddo to them. They'll need a new fullback now. Also, I'm seeing Parma is interested in Manuele Blasi and Santacroce of Napoli. To think we all drooled only on the mentioning of his name a few years ago... |
