Traianos DellasKostas Manolas is probably a shrewd signing, but 30 mio. euros for Benatia seems like a bargain in a world where Mangala goes for 35. Surely Roma could've gotten more, but Benatia being a bit of a bitch during all this probably didn't help the price in the end.

Judging by appearence, you already knew that, but no, he's literally a (flying) donkey now. Going to Chievo on a loan with option to buy, along with Botta.

Agnelli commented on Moratti's departure with a "he was so crazy in love with the club, he even accepted the 2005/06 Scudetto". I kind of like the response

MILAN - FC Internazionale is saddened to hear that Juventus president Andrea Agnelli has once again attempted to distort the facts and change history. Unfortunately for him, and for Italian football as a whole, 2006 was a disastrous year in which the Scudetto was legitimately awarded to Inter by the FIGC and Juventus were relegated to Serie B along with their reputation. Those are the facts. We will not allow anyone to change them or act as if they did not happen.

After a total of 7 games, Gattuso has stepped down as manager of Crete* nope just kidding, he's staying, citing his love for the city as the main reason. presumably he's just staying on to make more insane interviews like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7clSlIXxBZo

Maurito got a late penalty for Inter, meaning that Milan are now officially in third.

This only prolongs suffering under Mazzarri.

In no circumstances did we deserve 6 points from the last two games. We're absolutely poo poo, and the two penalties were basically non existent.

This is what it feels like supporting Juventus, huh? I feel dirty.

I'm in charge of a football federation who rules over a faltering league which has serious problems attracting top stars, in one of the worse economies in Europe

What do I do? Limit the amount of young talent clubs can attract from overseas and indirectly force teams to buy and start players from one of the poorest generations of italian football players in memory, which will in turn falsely inflate the price of the bonaventuras and ranocchias of this world because, even though this pretty means serie a is only going to decline further, my regulations will surely lead to a better national team or i dunno maybe it wont KEEP BANANA EATERS OUT OF MY COUNTRY BECAUSE THIS IS A TOTALLY LEGITIMATE AND REASONABLE POLITICAL STANDPOINT FOR A HIGH GOVERNING EXECUTIVE TO HAVE IN 2014!!!

While it'd be great to have him I'm more interested in getting rid of Torres. I'll be real mad if he's still around at the end of the window especially if it's Inter somehow keeping him around.

Yeah, he's gone, but the thing is, Inter already is under Uefa investigation for the FFP; surely they need to sell to compensate these further expenses?

My bet's on Icardi.

Icardi isn't going anywhere. Neither is Kovacic or Juan Jesus for that matter.

Guarin is the one to go, I hope, although Mancini has the weirdest boner for him. Don't forget, that Alvarez goes to Sunderland for 10 mio. if they stay up. That's a nifty sum right there. If we can get around 10 for Guarin, then we've made a profit buying Podolski and Shaqiri and selling players we don't really need.

What do you think will happen to Hernanes? He's being criminally underused in my opinion.

Not as much underused as 'slightly injured' as of late. When he's fit he starts, and rightly so. Kovacis is still balancing between 'awesome' and 'anonymous' every other game, and can't be expected to carry the whole offense by himself, and that's why Hernanes is so crucial to us, even though he isn't playing as he did in Lazio.
As for a transfer? I don't see anyone buying him for close to what we bought him for, and there aren't really any rumors about him leaving, so...
