Inter Milan Summer Window: The direction of signing is unclear, and the younger generation is quantitative but not quality! The management is entertaining itself?

Before Inter Milan played against Udinese at home in the second round, club chairman Marotta summarized the summer window transfer in an interview with DAZN: I don’t think there will be any other changes. Maintaining the team’s core lineup is an advantage, and only strong teams can do this. Our roster is reasonable in terms of player count, in line with plans and goals, and this is the result of our communication with the head coach.

Even when the reporter asked "Will Paval, who has no starting lineup, stay?", his answer was very firm: this is a technical choice, no special reason, we did not receive any offer, and I don't think there will be any tomorrow.

As a result, less than a day later, Paval went to Ligue 1 Marseille by loan + selective buyout, and Inter Milan also introduced Akanji from Manchester City in almost the same trading method. But if there was really no idea of ​​trading at that time, why would Paval, who performed well in the first round, put Bissek, who had not played in the official game for three months, put it on the bench? Therefore, it is likely that because the transaction was already negotiating, but it was not made public for confidentiality reasons, so this "unconventional rotation" occurred. Then, Inter Milan introduced 30-year-old Akanji to replace 29-year-old Paval, which became the team's summer transfer window to close the window!

Looking back at the team's overall signing, my point of view is that the direction of signing is unclear, and the younger generation is quantitative but not quality!

First, let’s talk about the issue of signing direction. Regular club signings should be carried out around the team building ideas and the head coach's skills and tactics and styles. Both are indispensable, otherwise it may lead to poor recruitment results.

Inter Milan's management has long clarified the team-building ideas of maintaining the stability of the main framework and promoting the younger lineup, so the team's initial goal of signing was focused on young players with low value and greater potential. This is no problem. Inter Milan introduced Susic, Enrique, Boni and others under this idea were all the results of signings under this idea.

However, the management did not strictly follow the established policies. When there was an opportunity to win big-name players like Lukeman and Conne in the transfer market, Inter Milan still chose to actively intervene and make every effort to complete the transaction. But Lukeman and Conne's 50 million euro level signings are obviously inconsistent with the management's established team building idea. Perhaps many fans will say that it is because they just fit the needs of the team's lineup, so of course you have to seize such an opportunity!

Well, if they meet the needs of Inter Milan's lineup, why did the team not introduce players of the same type to replace them after the introduction of two people was blocked? Lukeman was chosen because it fits the team's needs for 3421, but it is impossible for Lukeman to be the only one in the transfer market. Can't we introduce a suitable replacement with a huge capital of 40 million euros? As a result, after the introduction of Lukeman failed, the team directly gave up the strengthening of the offensive end.

If you want Conne, he can supplement the confrontation, hardness and B2B attributes that the team's midfield lacks, because everyone can see that Inter Milan lacks a tough midfielder! Inter Milan failed to buy it. It’s not up to the management, but mainly because Roma doesn’t sell it itself. However, is there only one good midfielder in the transfer market? The management said that it was definitely not, so he quickly bought Diouf from Ligue 1 to replace it! Please, the gap between Diouf and Conne is too big. Not only is it abilities, but it is also obviously different in type!

Speaking of Inter Milan's buzzer-beating operation, replacing 29-year-old Paval with 30-year-old Akanji, which is contrary to the team's original transfer strategy of "maintaining the stability of the core framework and promoting the younger lineup"! At the last moment of the transfer window, the main right center back was rented out, destroying the team's core framework last season, and replacing the older Akanji, achieving reverse youth. What is the purpose of this deal?

Moreover, do Inter Milan really need to consider Ziwo’s technical and tactical skills? Susic set the signings from Inter Milan in the winter window last season, and Enrique also started talking before Zivo came. Boni had also determined his intention to introduce them last season. Although Pio was considered a direct disciple when coaching Inter Milan's youth team, his stay at the team was more like a choice made by the management to save money, and these have little to do with Zivo. As for the operation of buying out Zalevsky and introducing Diov and Akanji after Ziwo’s arrival, have Ziwo’s opinions really been solicited?

Ziwo said this when answering the reporter's "Whether to get the favorite player after signing up": We must use existing players to realize my tactical philosophy, and we have no other choice. We must find motivation to move forward with the resources we have available because we have no choice.

Zivo mentioned in his answer that he only has the current players and resources, and he repeatedly emphasized with two consecutive "no choice": I really have no choice!

It is certain that Zalevsky is definitely not the favorite candidate for Zivo, otherwise he would not have bought out so late, ranked last in the appearance pick and resold it to Atlanta immediately. As for Diouf, it is difficult to say. Anyway, when it comes to Udinese, this extremely offensive midfielder was not sent. Not to mention Akanji, the entire summer window is on Manchester City's for sale. If he is Zivo's dream candidate, it wouldn't have arrived at the last moment of the transfer window, right?

Let’s talk about the younger lineup, Inter Milan has successively introduced 21-year-old Susic, 23-year-old Enrique, 21-year-old Boni, 22-year-old Diouf and retained 20-year-old Pio Esposito. It is indeed full of youth and vitality, and the lineup is remarkable!

Of course, the effect here is only "number". Inter Milan's meritorious captain Bergomi believes that no one of these 5 young players will become the starter.. Although this sentence is too absolute, after all, Susic played a very convincing performance in the first round of starting right midfield, but it was difficult to satisfy when changing to the left midfield in the second round. However, Barrera's starting position in the right midfield position is difficult to shake. Under such circumstances, can Susic still advance to the starting roster?

And except Susic, it is even more difficult for the other four young players to play the main players! Boni and Pio were unable to squeeze out the healthy and physically healthy Lautaro and Touram. Enrique was much inferior to the Mud-Tao. Diouf had a one-time pass, three-time confrontation failed in less than 15 minutes of his debut, and all of them were defeated, 1 time, 4 times lost the ball, and 1 mistake caused a shot. I don’t know when the substitute will come on the bench next time, let alone the starter! The only one who can enter the starting list without any dispute is the 30-year-old central defender Akanji who was introduced by buzzer! In addition, Inter Milan needs the most youthful position of dragging back central defender, the "70s" pair of Archerby and Devrey are as stable as Mount Tai, becoming the biggest hidden danger to the team for two consecutive seasons!

So, looking back at Inter Milan's entire summer transfer window, the team's signing direction is not clear. It neither strictly follows the established team building idea of ​​"maintaining stability of the core framework and promoting the younger lineup" and does not sign up based on the technical and tactical needs of the new coach Qiwo. It has bought a bunch of young people, but no one is sure of how much the overall strength of the team's lineup has improved!

I even have a feeling that these signings are planned and completed by the team management based on their personal ideas. They have insufficient consideration of the actual situation of the team's lineup and the actual needs of Ziwo's technical and tactics. Of course, it may also be completed under the instruction of Oaks Capital. But the fans should feel the same as Zivo: We have no choice!

Who makes us love this team? We can only continue to support the Nerazzurri unconditionally! Forza Inter, keep winning!
