@smithy1893 Couldn't agree more. If you put out a half-hearted side, you are basically disrespecting both the club and the fans who turned up. Turn up properly, every time.

@aakashgupta The funny part is how the money story collapses into minutes on the pitch. MLS bet on pipeline depth, and it shows, even with the usual extra context.

🚨🗣️🎙️| Patrick Vieira on Manu Kone

“He had a really good season in Serie A with Roma. He came to the World Cup after a couple of injuries
He is for me today the best midfielder in France.

He has mobility, aggressive, he is a ball-winner, and he has the technical ability to be part of the build-up, has the facility with the ball to break lines and move forward.”

[@ChrisWheelerDM ] #MUFC

£45m looks good if he stays fit. He looked decent for France, though he was losing possession in bad areas during their game vs Spain. Overall he was more comfortable going forward than Tchouaméni, who kept trying to drop in as part of the back 3 when his team needed more bodies in front at 2-0.

His injury record worries me though. Mostly hamstrings and torn muscle tendons. We’re in a league that demands more physicality and pace than Serie A, and he’s in a team that relies on transitions and fast breaks.

"INTER, YOU'RE MY LIFE" - Nicolo Barella: "I want to stay here for life. Winning here is an obligation and we will NOT stop. My dream? Two: winning the Champions League and playing in the World Cup"

As a child, Nicolò Barella had the habit of writing his wishes down on paper. Sometimes he did it as a game, sometimes as a bet, but some of them truly came true. Others he is still chasing. As he prepares for his eighth season at Inter, he makes no secret of his desire to repeat the domestic double—and perhaps achieve something even greater. He hopes it will be a year to remember, like the finest wines, his other great passion. In Germany, together with his teammates, he is working toward that goal. The man of the sea is now immersed in the countryside of Baden-Württemberg, just a short distance from the Black Forest.

What is Chivu asking of the team?

“To improve even more compared with last season. We want to pick up where we left off, playing our best football. It is an intense training camp. Some players handle it better, some get a little more tired, while others need more time to reach perfect condition.”

And what is he asking of you personally?

“To help the team. Now that Lauti is missing, whom I spoke to before the final, I also need to make myself heard more and act a little more like the captain. From the first day the coach arrived, he has always trusted me and treated me incredibly well.”

You have lived many different lives at Inter: you arrived as a young talent to discover, became a revelation, then a pillar of the team and finally vice-captain. What stage are you entering now?

“I am heading into a season in which I am trying to develop a slightly different style of play, because my body sometimes responds differently now. I am trying to play a little more intelligently in terms of managing myself and to be slightly more conservative. Our style of play, with the wing-backs helping us push forward, allows me to do that. I am 29 now, not 22 like when I arrived.”

Your age, and above all your seven years at Inter, make you a point of reference. What is it like to be seen as an example?

“The ‘older’ players must always set an example, but younger players can do so as well. It is about working hard and putting yourself at the service of the team, regardless of age. I do not feel that I necessarily have to be a reference point, but if someone enjoys speaking with me, I am happy. So I do not know whether ‘example’ is the right word. Perhaps the inspiration for my career is a better description.”

Speaking of young players and your department, Sucic impressed at the World Cup.

“When Petar touches the ball, you can immediately see that he has football inside him. He has earned an important role here and has become a starter for his national team, which has performed very well at recent World Cups and European Championships.”

Stankovic has returned to the midfield. Has he surprised you?

“Alek has always been a mature young man, but even more so now after his most recent experience abroad. He left his comfort zone, which was Inter, and grew a great deal. He has excellent qualities, and I am certain he will give us a hand this season.”

And Massolin?

“He has tremendous physical strength and very good technique. It is difficult to find someone who combines both.”

What should the fans expect from Pio, another player born in 2005 but someone you have known for longer?

“Despite being so young, he has already shown that he is strong and very important for both Inter and the national team. That is why everyone is always talking about him. But when that happens, you do something good and people praise you as though you were a god, and then you make a mistake and they criticize you. It is not easy, especially when you are young and in the current situation surrounding Italian football, with the national team not performing well. It creates pressure. But I know him well and I know he can manage it.”

Does the Inter contingent in the Italy squad help him in that regard?

“Yes, we try to give him advice because we have experienced those situations during our careers. Pio is also a striker unlike any of the others, because he has different characteristics. He has a natural instinct for goals and can find the net out of nowhere. So we have to look after him and protect him.”

What will you aim for next season?

“Since I arrived at Inter, first under Conte, then Inzaghi and now Chivu, the objective has always been to win. Some seasons we were better, and in others less so. This year is the same. What changes is that last season we won the league and the Coppa Italia, so now, to do well, we must win both again, as well as the Supercoppa, while also trying to do better in the Champions League. It will be difficult and will require a lot of energy, but those are our objectives.”

Did you buy yourself a gift for winning the double?

“A good bottle of wine: a 1999 Henri Jayer Vosne-Romanée Cros-Parantoux.”

When I say Champions League, what is the first thing that comes to mind?

“I will answer with another word: dream. Reaching the final twice and coming so close without managing to touch the trophy has never discouraged me. It is a constant thought. But we know that, as President Marotta has said, compared with other teams that spend hundreds of millions in the transfer market, we always have to make an extra effort. And we did that with our football, our ideas and our desire to succeed. We have come close twice. Hopefully there will be a third opportunity, and hopefully that will be the right one.”

Last season you went through a difficult spell, but from the beginning of April you scored two goals and provided three assists in five matches. The real Barella had returned. What happened?

“That downturn came after we failed to qualify for the World Cup. When you hit rock bottom, and for me it was the second time I had lost a playoff match, the only thing you can do is climb back up. Many thoughts went through my mind. Then, together with the others, we tried to think positively. Personally, once I stopped keeping everything bottled up inside, I understood that I should not let what had happened affect me, no matter how painful it had been. I rolled up my sleeves after those months that followed the lost Champions League final and then the World Cup disappointment.”

Did Inter help you?

“After that break, I scored against Roma. The embrace from my teammates, their happiness and the fact that I was smiling again… All of that made me click.”

Do you see Italy and Barella at the World Cup in 2030?

“That is what I want more than anything with the national team: to take part in at least one World Cup and play in it. My journey with Italy began by winning the European Championship, and then I missed two World Cups. It has been an incredible rise followed by a fall. That still feels unfinished to me.”

Have you achieved everything you wanted to achieve at Inter?

“I never thought I would become the player with the most assists in the club’s history, but I did. I also never expected to become vice-captain. But if you ask whether this is what I hoped for, I would say yes. I would like to become a player who makes even more appearances in this shirt, but I do not think about it. When I arrived here, I wanted only to give everything and win everything. I could have done even better, but I am proud of the journey.”

So do you imagine ending your career here?

“Yes. Although it depends on how quickly I age.”
