I'm guessing Motta and Muntari will rotate for minutes. I hope Quaresma is given another go but I doubt it (Suazo too). I'm not sure if Milito will start in a formation with 2 forwards or be backup for Ibra.

 

[yoyo913]

So.... do you guys like stuff?

 

[newbie original]

Ibrahimovic said: "I am fully aware that Chelsea want to sign me and, of course, it is very flattering. They are one of the biggest teams in Europe and the Premier League is one of the best leagues in the world.

Ibrahimovic told the News of the World: "Money is not the most important thing. I will base my decision on what's good for me, what suits me.

"It is about asking: will I still be able to be special in the league that I am going to, to the team that I am going to? Are my qualities right for the Premier League or not?"

Meanwhile, Moratti said that Chelsea centre-back Ricardo Carvalho and Blues midfielder Deco were unlikely to join Inter after talks broke down over the price tag.

"These targets are more and more difficult to obtain because they are players that are very useful only at the right cost," he said when asked about the pair. "Otherwise, they risk being bad buys."

I don't know why you guys were even considering letting him go to begin with!

 

[yoyo913]

I hope he stays but if we sell him we might improve our general play (if we buy the right players) because we are too dependant on Ibra.

Maicon WE MUST KEEP, he's the best RB in the world.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Yeah, Maicon really broke out at the Confederations Cup. Dude is nasty.

 

[vitu]

Mourinho said to the media that he is keeping Suazo...

 

[yoyo913]

Yeah, Maicon really broke out at the Confederations Cup. Dude is nasty.

Nah brah, Maicon has been tearing it up for 2 seasons. (maybe even when he played at Monaco)

 

[kp41]

this thread = just Horatiu's posts.

 

[Internazionale]

I'd rather to see Maicon stays at Inter. He proves to be the most useful in our RB from the past seasons.

Ibra needs to be sold. I started not to like his attitudes...
He only cares about winning CL is everything for him.

 

[yoyo913]

funny Mourinho interview

 

[Mus]

Lucio to inter confirmed

 

[Elber2k3]

Watch out, if some news paper spreads a rumor that you don't want him anymore he will start crying. This is why he left Bayern, seriously.

Interesting... young Obi gets *20, Recoba's old number
Lucio's number is not unveiled yet will probably because he has not joined the team in America yet (or has he?) but will most likely be *6 since *3 is retired.

 

[kp41]

maicon's 13?

 

[yoyo913]

yes

 

[kp41]

if Ibra/Eto'o trade goes well, Eto'o will probably take 9.

I think that's a legendery number at Inter.

 

[Internazionale]

that's good news.

 

[cmc211]

9 sure(Ronaldo's number at Inter)but 1+8 is also a legendary on Inter IMO.

Anyway the big deal is almost done except Zlatan and Eto'o decision. Eto'o also wants 10m pound bonus on Barcelona. Well I think too that Eto'o will get number 9. Haha Hleb is experiencing currently top 3 big leagues. But It seems that his form on Stuttgart/Arsenal is not coming back. He is regreting that why he decided to go to Barca.

 

[kp41]

1+8 was Ivan Zamorano I think, he actually kept his number 9 jeresy in a first season.
