Who would be your # 1 to replace Cuper if he got sacked?

[Il fenomeno]

alright..

hypothetically.. lets say that, god forbid, we dont win any silverware this season... and obviously cuper will get sacked.. who would be the number 1 replacement?

Nominees:

1. Roberto Mancini
2. Fabio Capello
3. Zaccheroni
4. Van Gaal
5. Del Neri
6. Other... please state.

I would opt for Mancini, Cappelo or even Del Neri. IMO, Capello is the best proven coach in the world, although he's had a bad season with Roma...

Mancini is pretty young, but he has done with Lazio is fantastic... and then Del Neri... whos teams play the best football IMO...

[barça]

Louis Van Gaal, I hear he is pretty good.:shocked:

[Hizbollah]

I don't assume that Cuper will get sacked in the near future but I think Mancini and Topmoller could be good replacements.

[Musiq]

Mancini's not gonna leave Lazio, he's just joined the Board of Directors there.

I don't think that Capello's going to arrive either. He and Sensi have finally made up, saying that they're going to make some new projeect and develop youngsters. That means Capello's going to hang around Roma a little longer.

But maybe when Cuper's contract runs out in 2005, concurrent with Capello's, he might arrive. But Moratti doesn't seem like he's going to sack Cuper.

[Slavenik]

There is a possibility that if we dont win anything this season, then Cuper would be sacked.

But its too early to talk about that. Maybe the situation would be a bit more clear for 5/6 weeks.

I belive that we will win the Scudetto.

[tok87]

A non-sense thread, cause we will win this year :smoking: .

And, if we dont, our new coach will be R.Mancini.

[nismo]

Right now. I wouldn't mind having Mancini pull the strings in Inter's play..

[nerazzuri]

:evil: FABIO CAPELLO! :evil:

[Musiq]

None of you have even read my post!

How can Mancini take over Inter and simultaneously be in the board of Directors for Lazio??

[Il fenomeno]

But seriously.. even if we win wit cuper... im not totally satisfied with how this team plays..

I mean, seriously, i can count on ONE hand the game we really have dominated and out played the opponent, like milan does every match, under cupers reign.

This needs to drastically change... or seriously, we need to get someone who can win..

[InTeR_FaNaTiC]

Cuper is taking way too much heat , which resulted in us fans talking about his replacement .

If Moratti was any wise he wouldn't think of sacking Cuper, instead, he would think about sacking certain players.

Cuper has a certain type of game in his mind, and apparently the players at his disposal have not, or cannot, apply that. He asked for REAL wingers and Moratti did not do that for him. We all know how important wingers are in Cupers style of play. He wanted Kily at the beginning, then Solari, then there were rumors about Overmars, Giggs, Luciano...etc.

I wouldn't like seeing Cuper sacked. But if he is, then I'd say bring in Del Neri .... No No , how about ................ Cosmi ???:D

Well I'm assuming he'd have to quit his role with the Lazio board.

[Slavenik]

Musiq, it would be very easy.

Did you know that Ronaldo was in the director board, he was a shareholder too, but still he left.

If Manci is a Lazio board member it doesnt mean that he cant go to inter.

[tok87]

If Moratti would propose Mancio 2 came 2 us, he wouldnt think a second, belive me. He would take the 1st plane from Rome 2 Milano ;) .

I doubt it. Manicini ended his playing career at Lazio, he loves the club. Now he's the coach for the first year and the team is doing fine, better than most expected.
If I was him, I would stay and see what future brings.

Mancini would be the ideal coach though. Capello is also a good alternative, and he's had so much rows with Sense during this season that he might be likelier to leave Roma.
Both of these coaches would bring some fresh air, some nice CREATIVE football for a change. So Cuper doesn't have the wingers he wants...so what. He should change the tactics then, but it just doesn't go through his thick skull...

[Sebastian]

MANCINI all the way.........screw the fact that he loves the CLUB.....NESTA loved the club...and he still loves it....:silly:......but who gives a damn about LOVE when were talking about the unlimited BUDGET.......:evil:.........his ambitions are stratospheric.......and INTER are too..........when bouth combined...there's a winning atitude............to tell you the truth......i dont think that CUPER has the confidence to win a TITLE......just when you see his favorite line up 4-4-2 it's enough............:rolleyes:.....he cant stand a TRIDENT in a true sense of the woird........1-2....this is a trident....not playing a striker in the left wing and calling it a TRIDENT..........what a bunch of crap.........it's right bihind the strikers....old man........:mad2:........i RESPECT CUPER..........but all of his desisions screwed the derbies..........and they were nothing but a HUGE failuire............:bloody:.......just imagine what MANCINI could do with this INTER...........

As much as I admire Mancini
Prior to Lippi's ill-fated arrival, I remeber someone making a statement like that last one of yours in a forum elsewhere, but replace Mancini with Lippi.

Ronaldo is not human enough to be taken as an example. Mancini is high on one thing - loyalty. He doesn't seem the kind of person who would dump Lazio when they need him most.

Poor fellow, tried his best to save the Viola, but the idiotic president Cecci Gori chucked him out of the position. He offered to stop his wages, as he has done even now with LAzio, he offered to even play.....

tok, it won't be easy to lure Mancio here, if at all we can lure him!

Nesta may have loved Lazio, but he loved cold hard green-backs more......;)

Mancini is a completely different man.

Seriously..nowadays... there is no "i love this club" bull shit..

if cuper gets sacked, there is alot of chance that Ronaldo will come back...

Oh really? That's why the man we call Captain resisted getting paid thrice his current salary to move the same club which your idol went?

Zanetti would have every reason to - he's been here for a long time, but hasn't won any trophies, he hasn't had any injury obligations which some unfaithful beasts never feel, he would get a huge salary.......

Learn something from this man, Il Fenomeno.

Mancini may not be as fervourous about Lazio as J Zanetti is about Inter, but he's not going to dump Lazio so fast.

[Zek]

Del Neri!!!
the one who plays the most pleasant and modern football in Italy with an average squad.

and one thing more if we fire Cuper we shall also fire some players too...

[001]

like Guly, Conceicao

i would like to have capello, or del neri

but i am happy with cuper

[Sebastian]

....Zek you have a point..........it's either MANCINI or DEL NERRI.......but it's said and as usual.....WE ALLWAY APRECIATE THINGS AFTER WE LOSE THEM...............if there's a possability for CUPER'S departure my option would be MANCINI.........but we dont nned to rush things.....there's plenty of matches to go.....although im mad at CUPER becouse he doesnt really knows where to put RECOBA........i have the highest RESPECT for CUPER.......

[Il fenomeno]

Seriously.. i've been disgusted by this defence this season..

Cuper has been describe the "defence magician"... but our defence literally sucks. Cannavaro has been a disappointment, matrix has been injured. We have like the 5th or 6th best defence in italy.. which is scandalous.. we should have the best.

I hope and offensive playing coach joins.. i.e Mancini, Del Neri, Zacceheroni or even Van Gaal.

[Musiq]

Love him or hate him, Cuper did integrate the squad perfectly. They were in tatters when he arrived, with Bobo ready to move to Juventus.

If anything, we have to appreciate Cuper for giving that tremendous determination to the players.

And when all else fails, that determination brings us results.

[Il fenomeno]

And i still regret.. why did they not let fat ass go to juve. We would get a player who is better than vieri, plus alot of cash..

oh damn.. and i when he said he will play for Inter for life... i was broken down really..

we dont need not fat asses

[Slavenik]

Its too early to speak of this. There are 27 points to grab. We can do it right.

Mancini has a great personality. But he would join us if Moratti has one of those chats with him:D

He did do that. Also I like him as a character: he's calm, a gentleman, never complains about referees (what's the point after game is over?)...
It's simply that his tactics are quite boring and predictable, and aren't bringing success against big teams. With this squad, Inter can play nice attacking, creative football. AND WIN.

[Zek]

sorry :(

[Zek]

his tactics were ok in Valencia but here... anyway he turned our 6:0 circus in a good team. He brought everything basic to the team. but he's struggling to bring something more than basics and again i am starting to think that the problem is with players as well. those guys, as we had a discussion few months ago, are "losers" (wrong mentality) and predictable (tired of playing :silly:)

I've got the highest respect to him as well and must say he relieved the scudetto hope for us.

and I don't know but I think it's Moratti's influence in giving a way to so many quality players in summer...

[Sebastian]

....and if he wasnt had all those player to choose i think it would've been lot easier for him......but those are sweet miseries.......:smoking:........he really shouldnt feel so insicure.....so many times he mistakenly composes his tactics........and the newest fail;ure was againT NEWCASTLE.....fisrt half was a complete fiasko......

[Zek]

second was no better... Newcastle really dominated :(

[ilcapitano]

Let's hope we can dominate against Como at least...or maybe we will defend and rely on counter attacks :silly: :depressed:

[Zek]

i am scared :bloody:

[Sebastian]

COMO????
....i just hope we wont get screwed like JUVE did.........:evil:.........

[tok87]

We didnt :)

[Zek]

:silly:

[Moon-Star]

Fatih Terim...

[ayt]

del neri... attacking... no fear soccer
last year.. chievo did brilliant
this year.. they sell 3 key players.. they are still up there..

tell me the coach must be good or something

[ilcapitano]

Interesting news from Lazio camp:

Roberto Mancini admits he would not turn down an offer to take charge of Inter next season.
The Lazio boss has been named by Nerazzurri President Massimo Moratti as his ideal replacement for Hector Cuper, should something go wrong with the Argentine.

“Leaving Lazio would be like interrupting a beautiful dream,” Mancini told ‘Tuttosport’, “but if that should happen and I had a choice then I would put all my cards on Inter’s table.”
Moratti has always been a fan of the ex-Sampdoria legend and was never able to bring him to the San Siro as a player.

“In 1997 I was on the verge of leaving Sampdoria and had offers from Inter. I chose to stay in the end, and perhaps it was an error, but I followed my heart.”

“Today I would act differently, especially for President Moratti. Thankfully there are still people in football like him.”

There have been many reports of a split between Cuper and the team, a row that already saw Ronaldo leave the club last summer, and failure to win the Scudetto could see him sacked.
“Cuper is a good man and an excellent Coach,” concluded his rival. “But Juventus could never be my future destination, especially as my friend Gianluca Vialli is angling for that post.”

It's great news...but then again, I remember reading that Manicini said something completely different just few weeks back. Is the media twisting his words? Or is he really beginning to change his mind?

[Musiq]

Who knows, man! I thought that Mancini was more tru-blooded than that. But anyways, Cuper does have a contract till 2005, and I think Mancini's contract is also more or less the same time.

But till now, Moratti doesn't seem to have lost any faith in Cuper.

[ilcapitano]

Originally posted by Musiq

If Moratti had lost his faith, he wouldn't speak out right now, knowing that might disturb the team. And if Cuper has no trophies to show for all his hard work at the club, it's likely he'll be out of the door next summer.

[nismo]

Vialli is also availiable let's not forget, after all he has finishd his coaching course I think. I prefer Mancini, but Vialli availiability is open. The only question is if he's willing to coach for Inter, or hold out for his beloved Juve.

[Sebastian]

well LIPPI has signed a new contract with JUVE......but VIALLI????
...MANCINI or DEL NERI defenetly......anyway lets not rush things.....there's still plenty of time.....

[tok87]

I think we will win, so Cuper will stay :)

[Sebastian]

...:silly:....HOPE that's te only thing we can do......but even if dont win...MORRATI might decide to keep him.....i dont know....it's out of my reach to predict for these matters....maybe he'll understand that by changing another coach he'll be on the start.....like so many times before......:(...:worried:....:cry:........:D....

[BLAUGRANA]

Tough question. I thought I posted earlier, but I seem to have not. I say Gigi Del Neri.

[Musiq]

I dunno, I'm starting to get 2nd thoughts about Cuper. Its true he did organise the team well, instilled a great team-spirit,etc, etc. But he simply refuses to keep alternative tactics except his 4-4-2. The team needs a whole revamp if you ask me. So maybe, just maybe, Moratti might let him go.

[INTERcrazy]

Hey guys....
Long time no c.... well the fuss is going on now about the sacking of CUPER, but is he the only one to be blamed for misrable (showing) yet (good) season. If we talk in terms of results then we can say that we did well considering the number of injuries and available players for exapmle we can't blame players like CHRISTIAN ZANETTI and DI BIAGIO for not playing well, because in my opinion they played well and they tried to give their best, but the're no ZIDANE's, FIGO's or BECKHAM's!!!
If u ppl can catch my point we dont have CREATIVE players with all respect to EMRE, DALMAT, and RECOBA and when u dont have creative players u well often lose position and suffer in midfield and eventually lose to big teams.
So why should we cry about losing the scudetto or the champions league when we dont deserve even to be in the semi's. It's a pitty, but being honost is the best thing to do.
I think that we need new blood and new attitude. I read on soccerage website that INTER signed KARAGOUNIS who is a GREEK that plays for PANATHINAIKOS. With all respect to him as well do u ppl think that he will changed anything? Is he an answer to very weak midfield comparing the standards of big teams? My opinion is he will suffer in the first few months and he will spend a lot of time on the bench and he will end up by quitting the team. I hope he proves me wrong, but my point of all that is why INTER's management dont learn from past mistakes?! Why we sell players like MUTU & ADRIANO when we badly need them! Why we dont bring a (WNNIER) to coach the team so he can teach players how to win and give their all until the last minute of the season? Why we dont buy (WINNERS) who can influence the team and transform it and make it fight till the end. Look at JUVE, to me the're the best example that INTER should copy. Why not when we are disperat to win a trophy we should learn from mistakes.
k guys thats all i want to say for now
wainting 4 ur replies
:)

[Interista]

if cuper has to go I want mancini to come

[Slavenik]

Looks like Cuper is staying, but i would replace him for Manchini defenetly. It looks like Cuper will have another year.

His first season we ended 3rd, his second season we ended 2nd, lets see if he can deal with that row;)

[Catenaccio]

It looks like the likes of Recoba and Di Biagio will leave before he does.

[Slavenik]

Changes are needed. We need to strenght up the midfield. I dont know if Cuper has D'Alessandro in mind, he is awsome, very creative. He is for sale, so i hope Moratti will take him in consediration;)

[INTERcrazy]

Hey guys... :)
What about RONALDINHO... he is very interested in playing in SERIE A and I think he could be a good solution to our suffering midfield, but i doubt that he would come to INTER coz our (allenatore) will not welcome such a player as he will prefer another ball winner!!
MUTU could be very useful as well, we should bring him back before he joins one of our rivals.
PLZ share ur thoughts :)

[Sebastian]

CAPPELO afcorse....he's at ROMA'S exit so it wont be hard to sign him.........but MORRATI wants to see another DEFANSIVE season...so i guess will stickto this cool TACTITIAN.....:rolleyes:.......another season.........

moratti wants to win something like all of us.and he`s gotta win something and we all dont care how.
and if u take that for a fact thats why we will keep cuper. since cuper leads inter they are back on top... or doesnt any one remember the season before him??
but i am shure cuper will have his last chance another year... the interisti are willing to take another year of this non-soccer if we will win the scudetto....but

[Sebastian]

....what has CUPER done????
before he arrived INTER mid field was ridiculous......TARDELLI didnt have all that quality players like CUPER does now....he had a good team...but not like this......i remember when we played against ROMA on olimpico....we lead the game with 0-2 and they thrashed us wit 3-2......we had BLANC who was slow and old.....a hidious left back......the thing is this curent INTER is a great team....and with a 4-3-3 formation we can crack some solid TEAMS.......
even if TARDELLI lead this INTER they would've finished second or third.....what CUPER did wasnt marvelous at all...........he didnt won a single derby wich consequently makes INTER incompetent when facing the DINOSAURS and a huge ammount of INSUCURITY....like that against ROMA on san siro....every derbe was a total FIASCO(remember GULY against JUVE????)
should i continue??????
and at the end i will add one more thing......everyone knows that CORDOBA is a marvelous defender and he is similar to ROBERTO CARLOS in his agility and SPEED.....(ok now CARLOS is a BRASILIAN wich automaticly distinct him from the rest.....:silly:....)
why didnt we kept SEEDORF.....when all we should've sign was a central defender.......we swaped him for COCO who has been useles....he's a great player but you cant give one of the most expirienced mid ass kickers....someone with two c.league crowns...and he's only 26 for a defender......there should've been another option.....giving SEEDORF to MILAN made them one hell of a mid field.....we practicly strenghten MILAN for GOD SAKE......remember PIRLO??????
.....:confued:........we needed a left back.....but i can swear the no one would give a player like SEEDORF for a defender........that'sall in a RETROSPECT and it's pointless to discuss about that...although it HURTS like a SCORPION sting.........:mad2:.....
this seasonwas a defenetly nasty.....
why in GODS name MORRATI confirmed CUPER when CAPELLO is practicly with one leg out of ROMA'S life................?????
....:confused:..........

[InTeR_FaNaTiC]

Thank God Moratti confirmed Cuper, a RARE good decision.

eLcino, you're mad cuz we didn't beat the big teams, have you seen our midfield, and have you seen their midfields.

They have the likes of : Nedved, Rui Costa, Seedorf, Davids, Emerson, Stankovic, ..... etc.
And we have the likes of : DiBiagio, Conceicao, Dalmat and Recoba.

Need I say more .. ! :rolleyes:

[Il fenomeno]

I think we all agree on the fact that the other giants have stronger midfielders.. while we have the strongest attack in the serie a. but know one is providing them. We need to buy some great midfielders.. i.e Pires, Makelele and Kily..
