This Sneijder Thing is Getting Messy
By: Johonna |Alright, rumors should always be taken with a grain of salt – or, given some the “journalists” out there, a truckload – but Inter has been pretty strongly linked with Wesley Sneijder all summer. If you believe the newest rumors, things are getting a little icky in Spain.
On Your Marks, Get Set…
By: Johonna |Well, the preseason is over and the real thing is poised to begin; Inter take on Bari in our season opener in less than a week now. Inter have not had the best summer campaign, that loss to Chelsea was particularly ugly, but the team is in flux and a few growing pains are to [...]
Trofeo Tim: Inter, Milan, and Juve – Oh My
By: Johonna |Tomorrow, Mourinho will take a rag-tag group comprised largely of youth and non-internationals to the seaside town of Pescara. There, Inter will take part in a three-way with its closest rivals to entertain the throngs of Ferragosto holiday-makers. Whoopee. Last season, Inter lost this mini-tourney (came in dead-last even) plus lost a player to injury [...]
Tactics talk
By: MAD |The Silly Season is at the endgame stage of the weird chess match between player, agent, other team sporting director and our heroes at Corso Vittorio Emanuele II.
OK, Now What?
By: Johonna |So we didn’t win. Meh. I see it as a half empty / half full kind of deal: the squad played well as a team with good movement and pace (half full) but they got one more goal than we did (half empty). I am not going to get into which was the better team [...]
Our story thus far…
By: MAD |Considering the fact that Inter doesn’t have another friendly until the SuperCup in China against Lazio on Saturday – a game that I hope we have the proper mentality to win – I would like to spare a thought reviewing Inter’s transfer market as a whole.
We Won – Yippee!
By: Johonna |Inter took on AS Monaco today and we actually won! True, it wasn’t spectacular and everyone looked a little sleepy, but at least it shows that the team is beginning to gel. Plus, trophies are always nice (and this one is big and shiny). The game finished Inter 1 – 0 AS Monaco, with a [...]
Training Day
By: MAD |Okay, I just wanted to take a step back from the Eto’o/Ibra thing. Yes, they are both big players. Yes, the money that is changing hands could feed my family for 20 years 10,000 years. Yes, they are both fabulously wealthy and the existence of reality TV shows that we care about this, apparently.
I [...]
Goodbye Ibra or: How I learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb
By: Johonna |iacta alea est – There is nothing left but the ink on paper.
The deal is done, Ibra is gone and Eto’o has agreed to Inter’s terms. Samuel Eto’o will sign a five-year contract worth 10.5 million euros a season, probably on Monday, and is expected to start working with the team on Tuesday. With him [...]
Er… What Just Happened?
By: Johonna |Here we were, having fun in LA, horsing around and getting ready for our very first match of the new season, when WHAM! In swoop Barcelona and no more Maxwell. And for practically peanuts, too. Now, the deal isn’t completely finished but so far, it does not sound very promising for Inter. Besides all [...]
