The former striker and technical director ofBury, Framework White, gave a long interview to the newspaper Republic. Starring in the role of coach from 2003 to 2014, during the Moratti era, the former Nerazzurri commented on the Suning company’s market choices and Inter’s strategy, which focuses on prepared players: “Right strategy? Absolutely. Last year very interesting young people like Barella and Sensi arrived, now it is good to look for profiles with more experience. This season Inter have a great opportunity to compete for the championship against Juve. Agnelli and his managers made a big gamble by choosing Pirlo. He’s a champion and I’m sure he’ll do well on the bench too, but he may need a period of adjustment. Inter must take advantage of it ”.
Can you imagine a two-man race for the Scudetto?
“There is also Naples. Gattuso is doing a great job. It depends on how you are going to integrate the newcomers with the historical core of the team. For the top positions in the standings, then, you certainly have to take Lazio into account, from which I expect the usual excellent championship. And pay attention to the Rossoneri. “
The dream of the transfer market in midfield for Inter is Kanté. A player who can really change the balance?
“Absolutely. He runs for three, he is inexhaustible. He suffered a little in the days of closed-door football, but for many seasons he proved to be strong and versatile. He did his best with Ranieri, in the days of Leicester. Sarri did an interesting experiment, moving it further. “
Do you believe in the idea that Messi could one day go to Inter?
“For such important operations, nothing is said until the end. But if he leaves Barcelona, most likely next year, I see Manchester City at an advantage, where he would meet the coach, the technical director and the CEO of the best Barcelona of all time ”.
Antonio Conte, who reminds you of the coaches of your Inter past?
“Certainly Roberto Mancini. He has passion, he participates emotionally in team events, he is a motivator. They are positive character traits, which have a negative side. Like Mancini, Conte is sometimes carried away by statements and behaviors that may seem out of place. But the value of both is not in dispute ”.
Does Conte have something in common with Mourinho?
“Honestly, I think not. No coach looks like José. Plan everything. From the field of play, through the management of the sports center to communication, it is impregnable. Create armor to protect your team. Make the right decisions with amazing speed. It was a real privilege to work with him. “
Massimo Moratti assures that Mourinho is the only coach who has never asked him for a player, apart from Quaresma. With it, did you name the players you wanted?
“Very few. And always with great humility. He never put his foot down. He was convinced, and I think he still is, that a great coach must know how to win with the players he has. Quaresma pointed out to us, it’s true, and “We took him. He spoke well of Deco and Carvalho, whom he had trained at Chelsea. I told him I had other ideas and he didn’t take it badly, on the contrary. José knows how to listen.”
Who did you take instead of Deco and Carvalho?
“Lucio from Bayern, for 5 million, since van Gaal did not let him play. And coincidentally we played the Champions League final against Bayern. And we spent 15 million for Sneijder, fleeing with Real. And then the final was played in Madrid. I convinced Wesley to come with us, thanks to a trick I don’t want to talk about. It’s my little secret ”.
If there had been financial fair play, could you ever have built the 3-point team?
“Absolutely yes. We did it all with only the money from the sale of Ibra to Barcelona. And we put together an ultra-motivated group. Milito and Thiago Motta wanted to show that they deserve a great club. Eto’o, whom he had been pursuing for years, wanted show Barcelona that they were wrong to sell it. Pandev arrived after months of punishment at Lazio, in which he did not see the field. “
It was a revolution.
“We changed six owners that year, keeping Zanetti, Maicon, Cambiasso, Stankovic behind. We won, despite revolutionizing, because we had a solid club, a winning mentality and above all a great coach ”.
The triplet was a half old team. In hindsight, do you think next year would have been worth selling out to some of the senators?
“Reasoning in hindsight doesn’t make sense. In 2010/2011 we finished second behind an excellent Milan and won the Italian Cup. So, it’s true, the cycle ended. Moratti, my great president, understood that his career at Inter was over, even if he didn’t talk about it. I came to the same conclusion and it was painful. As for the players, nobody wanted to leave Inter after the triplet. We feel like family. Even more than the victories, we were united by sporting and human values ”.
