Tells tell me, in basic football terms, how a trash team can be in top of the league?Why can't you understand basic football stuff?

Why do you think that?Get ready to be disappointed then. We are not winning Scudetto this year.
I wonder who Inter will have to sell in the summer.
It all depend on what Maldini will do comes the next mercato , same as last season.I would be extremely disappointed if we dont win this season and more so if we dont try to purchase upgrades in winter. As in we fade down the stretch again with the same issues plaguing us.
Next season I cant say until we see how other teams approach their windows in summer.
Ever heard of grinding results? We got pretty lucky against Venezia, Spezia, Verona, Bologna, Roma and Udinese. 16 points won with a lot of luck. Once our luck faded away we started shitting the bed. Thank God we had 2 of the worst teams in the league back to back so we could restore some confidence. It was really important before facing the ultra-mega-hyper good Udinese defense that allowed us 1 shot on target.Tells tell me, in basic football terms, how a trash team can be in top of the league?
Problem is if we had the funds for a winter mercato we probably would have invested more into the squad in summer. There is no reason not to already put the CL group stage into the books as it was secure, so I'm very doubtful that there is much to spend, apart from maybe an emergency war chest.It all depend on what Maldini will do comes the next mercato , same as last season.
Last season its obvious that a CL spot is the target & we reached it on the last match day.
We will see if we will aim higher this season.
This team can win the league if fix our RW & AM gaps.
Am not saying that team need to participate in winter mercato to win the title but this was forced by Maldini not fixing our line up during the summer.
If we did that then we would be probably still leading the table by several points ahead & even qualified for round two in CL.
Dodge a bullet to be hit by a Diaz AM bomb.We also dodged a bullet with Ziyech by the way, not saying he is flat out horrible but very glad we didn't sign him. Same goes for Dalot.
Not every player we signed was perfect but those were some good decisions.
That's illegal. When you don't have all your 11 starters on the field you have to send long balls to the opponents box all the time. And no more than 3 consecutive passes are allowed in the opponent's half. Everybody knows that.They like creates 20 shot on target
Then you should learn how to read.The way I read this comment is that you have finally accepted they are way out of our leagues in footballing terms. So that you shift focus to off field matters where there is some hope still. And this is pathetic.
This team is obviously bypassing our initial target so yes i hope that Elliot open their wallet for a realistic chance to win the title.Problem is if we had the funds for a winter mercato we probably would have invested more into the squad in summer.

As a fan you always hope that "fine as we are" is only a smoke screen, but I fear its probably more the truth than a lie.
See it quite the same.It all depend on what Maldini will do comes the next mercato , same as last season.

I think Faivre was their pick, and then he decided to pull his stupid stunt to try and force the move. Adli is our long-term CAM project, I think their idea was Faivre/Brahim for the CAM spot, who could also cover RW, but then it blew up.Thing that bother me the most is that we didnt even try to replace Hakan.
I mean how a staff paid millions to make decisions really think Diaz can work there ?!
Its fucking insane.
That means 5-7 mill is all you were willing to pay to 'upgrade' your critical AM spot ?faivre was about to be our rw and am to rotate with diaz
samu decided to stay -> we didnt get money for faivre -> loan of messias
I dont mind Messias.faivre was about to be our rw and am to rotate with diaz
samu decided to stay -> we didnt get money for faivre -> loan of messias
I´d much rather deal with a Diaz flop than with a Ziyech flop though. Worst case we upgrade and use him as a sub for two years.Dodge a bullet to be hit by a Diaz AM bomb.
Only an idiot would want Dalot in his team.
I know that Messias was a reaction for us not getting Faivre.I think Faivre was their pick, and then he decided to pull his stupid stunt to try and force the move. Adli is our long-term CAM project, I think their idea was Faivre/Brahim for the CAM spot, who could also cover RW, but then it blew up.
We cannot win the Scudetto unless we have Leao and Rebic back, consistently, even if we did have Faivre right now.
The massive difference that Messias has shown is either because he's truly a hidden gem, or the more likely reality: he's the only real winger we have (who is healthy right now).
If Brahim scores at least one of his shots yesterday, we're all shutting up. Including me. I hate how Brahim plays, but when he scores, I can take it, because he's more of an SS than a CAM. I can stomach that when he's scoring, even when his passing is shit, but when he's not passing? I can't stand it.
I think Adli is the guy though, the kid is talented.
Ziyech was a loan with option.I´d much rather deal with a Diaz flop than with a Ziyech flop though. Worst case we upgrade and use him as a sub for two years.
It’s a marathon everyone will drop points. Udinese game is an expected result even when we have full healthy squad. They only play us.yea we cant afford to lose points if we want the scudetto
I think the intention was to have Brahim/Faivre for CAM. Maybe it was Faivre and Messias, rather than just Messias?I know that Messias was a reaction for us not getting Faivre.
Maldini did a great job there.
But he fucked up about Diaz able to replicate what Hakan was providing.
There was no intention to buy an AM for this season thinking Diaz will pull it off & they even gave him the number 10.
Fucking pay couple of mil more & just get Adli.
we got yacine also, just left on loan to develop - dont get idea why?? maybe we closed it first with hope on closing faivre.That means 5-7 mill is all you were willing to pay to 'upgrade' your critical AM spot ?
Maybe its as Wild said - top 4 was our target again and they thought we have enough for that.
i like messias for moments we saw himI dont mind Messias.
But he cant cover two starting position.
We should have got Messias & another similar solution player to bench both Diaz & Sale.
Obviously our staff thought Sale could really work.
Sale is the definition of average & I always said that hence my constant nagging for a RW for two years now.
I dont mind him staying considering he is young & can still surprise us , but to start fuck no.
Only 1% of players will pull a Tona like progression.
Faivre can also play AM and would have been the ideal rotation player for that position with Diaz. Not paying a couple of million for Adli was probably because we wanted him to further develop in Bordeaux and to also save some money to go towards paying for Faivre. Unfortunately the Faivre deal fell through at the last moment. We even had a plane reportedly all ready to pick him up. Sadly his antics pissed off Brest and they decided to cease all negotiations with us.I know that Messias was a reaction for us not getting Faivre.
