		<description>i don&#039;t know about motta, milito is already my fav inter striker, because i can&#039;t stand balotelli and ibra.
I don&#039;t know if inter can cope without crespo&#039;s hair, it was the most incredible hair on earth. and how are inter trying to fix this? they&#039;re only bringing in a bald black man. at least they&#039;ve still got julio cesar and his magnificent 50&#039;s movie star hair.</description>

		<description>I am also very happy with these transfers, but when I see that jubentus signed Diego AND Melo, I am not so sure..... we still need a creative mid - Ederson [Lyon] / Elano [Man City] or Hamsik [Napoli] ! We really need some creativity, hopefully we will sign one of these, not only grand-Deco-pa. Btw, for those worried we let thos youngsters go, we can buy them if they prove to be good enough for INTER. Bolzoni will never be INTER material IMO.</description>

		<description>Milito is a great signing. If Motta can stay healthy he&#039;ll be a great addition also. At the very least they reinforce our depth in the midfield and up front

Like everyone else, I think we could use another midfielder and a defender

Who needs Ibra when you got Balo? :) But seriously, I have high expectations for him next season

I dont even wanna talk about RQ. Worthless</description>

		<description>So why are you happy with the change if it&#039;s to do better in the CL? I thought you didn&#039;t care for the CL</description>

		<description>Speaking of youth players that can be used either as squad players or as bargaining chips...

Official news, Inter just bought Denis Alibec. Alibec is an left footed attacker that has played for the Romanian U19s and U21s. He is slated for the Primavera and has signed for 4 years.</description>

		<description>Watchdogs is absolutely right that the youth system also functions to create players who we can use to get bigger players. I&#039;m only really sad about losing Bolzoni among that lot, I had high hopes for him. I guess we&#039;ll just have to trust our transfer gurus&#039; and Mourinho&#039;s judgement on who to keep and let go.

@ajay: Inter owns Kerlon, but he&#039;s been out with injury for prolonged periods, and that&#039;s why he hasn&#039;t featured for Chievo. He&#039;s supposed to be great too, but not to the level of Coutinho. And between Sneijder, Van der Vaart and Cassano, Cassano is easily the most talented, and proven in Serie A. But we all know that he&#039;s a bit crazy, and has a fat-ass ego. So how he&#039;ll get along with Ibra and Balotelli up front is a mystery, and maybe too much of a risk even. If Ibra does end up leaving, I think we have some room in the &#039;ego-nut-job&#039; department to accommodate Cassano... :) Sneijder on the other hand, is not as much as a creative freak, but he IS an intelligent player, high work rate, very professional, good eye for goal, good set-piece taker, but a little injury-prone. Of the three, I think he&#039;s the one who&#039;ll fit into Mourinho&#039;s system best - we all know that he likes his trequartista to get back and defend too. Van der Vaart, good as he is, is not in the same class as Cassano, if you ask me, and not as all-round useful as Sneijder either.</description>

		<description>i think the final piece to the puzzle is an attacking midfield player. 
deco - aging, chelsea asking a bit too much. not many years left in him. although still useful we would just have to buy again in another two yrs. need someone who is both good in the present and will grow.
hazard - too young, too raw. needs more experience. although will become a good player in 3-4 yrs time, rest of the squad will have gone past their prime.
Diamanti - 26 yrs old, not exactly young. but effective considering his last season with livorno. but we do need to consider that it was serie B. how is he gonna fare against barca, juve, milan, manchester????
need to consider our own youth plyrs:-
coutinho - signs for us in 2010. too young, needs exp. 
kerlon (seal dribble) - he is under contract at inter and went to chievo on loan, right? someone pls fill me on this. hes pretty good i think. full of tricks a flicks.
anyone else??? wesley snider, van der vaart,cassano????

i&#039;d prefer either cassano or van der vaart. talented and keeping the arrival of coutinho in mind they will still be playing to teach him a thing or two</description>

		<description>I really do like these signings. They are two top quality players. I don&#039;t like who we gave them in the trade though; Aquafresca, Bolzoni, Bonucci, Fatic and Meggiorini. I think a few of those are gonna be stars. I&#039;m sure including them meant Inter didn&#039;t spend too much cash, but the ideal the scenario would&#039;ve been a co-ownership deals or so.
We still have great youngsters in the youth set up and I&#039;m sure we&#039;ll be fine. I just think we&#039;ll be seeing a few of those names rip up seria A and Inter will be kicking them selves in the foot ala Pirlo, Mutu, and Pendev.</description>

		<description>Great post! We just need a skilled offensive midfielder and we&#039;re ready to win again. 

About youngsters: sad to say, but a youth academy is good if you have players that can be part of the first team squad, if they are absolute stars in the future, but also if you &quot;create&quot; players that can play in smaller serie A teams, using them for exchanges with top players...</description>

		<description>I can understand those two concerns, but I think Milito is a sure-bet for years, it&#039;s Motta&#039;s knees I would worry about.</description>
