Personally i hope we keep Baptista, i hate Reyes... esp the manner he has conducted himself in to get a transfer.

Shabani Nonda looks like joining Blackburn.

Is Nonda still any good?

didn't click well in Serie A, but he is rated.

But considering that Spalletti prefers Vucinic over Nonda, Hmmm... don't expect any fireworks from him...

No offence man...although Moratti and co. are the nicer guys in football, Inter's transfer policy is unbelievably stupid.

Do you agree? I mean they have fantastic players in their squad but they always fail to keep a solid nucleus of players around which to build.

Adriano-Ronaldo is just the tip of the iceberg. Moratti is a sentimental man more than anything and this is just nostalgia. The pragmatic grade for this move would be a D+.

Mancini, IMO, is a slightly above average coach but continuity will do him a world of good. But why let go of Pizarro? Why bring in a plethora of strikers and one who is grossly overrated (Ibra)?

Plus Inter now sign Gonzalez from Palermo on loan.

sampdoria sign................................................ as expected

im trying to arrange that now.

apparently have to fly to milan, stay there for the day or a few hours then fly to palermo!

Foggia has gone to Lazio on loan for the season. Great deal for them.

Fiore on loan is a great deal for Torino, so many clubs have missed the boat on this guy, he is still class.

You are spot on, dude! Moratti acts by his heart, not his head... not always a good idea....

Our transfer strategy was going so well till a few weeks back... Maicon, Maxwell, Grosso, Vieira, and Crespo were all brilliant deals.

Then Recoba was confirmed - ridiculous - he should ve been sold as soon as we got Crespo... Recoba is more surplus than any other striker...

Then Ibra came in (meaning we lose out Martins)... I guess that was a Mancini request, and am willing to give the coach the benefit of doubt on this one.

Selling Pizzaro (instead of Cesar/Solari) was a mistake, but I guess Mancini tried to stop him, but Pizzaro wasn't convinced that he fits into Mancio's plans.... ok, still understandable (even tho we still lack replacement in that dept).

But this Ronaldo-Adriano swap saga is pits.... even if Ronaldo slims down and has a coupla good seasons, he si no way worth the same as a 24yr old Adriano!! Adriano had a bad season (so many players do initially - SSS), he merited another year before any judgement... With Ronaldo, we would ve changed all our 3 main strikers, and that is silly. You just cannot go about chnaging the team every time, there will never be continuity - and thats where Inter has suffered the most -and now we are doingit again. Really silly.

Moratti confirms a deal with RM to trade Ronaldo for Adriano ?

Massimo Moratti conferma la trattativa con il Real Madrid per lo scambio di prestiti Adriano-Ronaldo. ''Tutto può essere ma le cose non dipendono soltanto da noi, ma anche da altre società - ha dichiarato -. Noi non stiamo spingendo. E' un qualcosa che è in aria da un pò di tempo ma non credo che si possa concludere entro stasera''.

Intanto è stata smentita la voce circolata a inizio pomeriggio secondo cui Ronaldo si sarebbe imbarcato su un aereo con destinazione Milano: il brasiliano si trova a Madrid, dove stamattina si è anche allenato. Lavorando però non con il gruppo, ma a parte.

Conferme sull'ipotesi di scambio erano arrivate in mattinata dalla Spagna. Secondo quanto riporta oggi il quotidiano sportivo spagnolo 'As', infatti, l'Inter tenterà di concludere l'operazione. Mijatovic valuterà nelle prossime ore la proposta nerazzurra e le parti cercheranno poi di formalizzare lo scambio entro le 19 di oggi, orario di chiusura del mercato italiano.
