    Calciomercato is indicating Conte wants 3 signings at all costs:

    1) Lukaku
    2) Dzeko (please take him)
    3) Barella (wise decision)

    I think eventually they'll need to address FB/WB, but I imagine they don't feel it's as pressing at this moment in time.

    Is he not like a perfect tactical fit? Surplus to requirements makes zero sense to me.

    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    If you told me Allegri/Conte didn't want him because he's not defensively minded enough, I would've bought it.

    But with Sarri? I think he'd be a monster, personally.

    lol, so Juve wants to get worse? I mean, I'm ok with that.

    Is it just me, or does it feel like there's a real opportunity for Serie A to close the gap on Juve next season?

    This Sarri appointment really feels off to me. Changing your logo is one thing, but completely changing the entity of your football is another.

    I think Conte might make them sweat next season. Seriously.

    In all honesty, he didn't do a bad job. The expectations to challenge Juve's dominance in two years is just not realistic. They were certainly not the free flowing team that we usually see with Spalletti's football but I dont think that was anything a midfield makeover couldn't fix along with the poisoned apples upfront removed. Team building takes time, a more realistic approach would be being content with challenging over 5 years by continuously improving year on year. I think we would have witnessed that with Spalletti but thats modern football and typical of Inter Milan in particular. If Conte doesn't work out in 2 years they'll blow it up and start again.

    Problem is Inter's a volatile/dysfunctional club, and that's pretty much Luciano to a tee. Drama follows him wherever he goes.

    After they brought in Beppe, I knew Luciano's days were numbered unless he showed significant progress. He didn't do that.

    He vouched for Radja, and it failed. Now they're trying to pawn him off to China.

    He also handled the Icardi thing oddly as hell, but I expected no less from Spalletti. Truthfully, it wasn't all his fault in that circumstance. Not at all.

    The football was super bland, and the results didn't match the talent level. Not even close. Just by virtue of having Handanovic instead of Olsen the gap between our clubs should've been more than 3 points.

    Bad? Maybe not bad. But it was far from anything impressive. They got a substantial upgrade with Conte, and they're doing everything they can to rid themselves of the drama/dysfunction that has plagued that club for years.

    Makes sense from Arsenal's perspective. Once Torreira said he wanted to return to Serie A, it was like a grenade to his market value.

    Seems Milan had the same idea as I did with trying to offer Kessie straight up.

    Ah well, it was a fun idea while it lasted. Back to Leroy Fer rumors, I suppose.
