What's next for Inter??
Finally the football season will get back on track this weekend as Inter have had a two week lay off due to bad weather and International football.
Inter coach Ranieri is hard at work trying to inject confidence in his players after their recent victory in the Champions League.
Milito has finally scored and maybe he can keep his rhythm going in future games.
Inter must win their next match against Cagliari this weekend and hopefully start moving up the table. Being stuck in the bottom does get a bit depressing even though Inter are doing well in the Champions League.
In the last couple of days, Moratti is again in the news with some suggesting that he had talks with Barcelona's Guardiola while he made a visit to Italy.
If this did take place, I personally, hope it did not happen as in the current situations Ranieri is doing a fantastic job.
To get Guardiola on board, Moratti will have to spend big to have a winning team as Mourinho did, and who is to say that Ranieri can't do the same thing if Moratti spends more money on the team.
What happened to all the UEFA Financial Fair Play talk?
We must not forget, Guardiola inherited a Barcelona team that was fresh from winning the Champions League and he just had to add one or two players of his preference to the team. Mourinho has shown the world he can win the Champions League with a small team such as Porto, but can Guardiola do the same thing?
Ranieri is a coach full of experience and he knows how to get a team out of the pits. So let the current coach do his job and if he does well let him enjoy the success that comes with bringing a team back to the top.
What does Moratti expect from Ranieri? As I said on a number of occasions, Ranieri inherited a team that was abondoned by Mourinho, trained to death by Benitez, its moral was crushed when Leonardo left and then it was practically destroyed by Gasperini.
Ranieri did not have a summer to get to know the players and he is still trying to get used to them as training schedules are so short.
Hopefully in the winter break, he will be able to get some more work done.
It is obvious you cannot not teach a team that has won practically everything anything new, but Ranieri can inject a new desire to win and that is his job.
Inter are showing signs of improvement and things will get better, but it takes time and patience.....and that is something unfortunately nobody has in Italy.
Forza Inter
