The Nerazzurri coach is in the crosshairs: Inter reached the Champions League final and is fighting for the Scudetto but they want to oust him

A Sunday that thrilled everyone. A day of Serie A like we haven’t seen in a long time, with as many as nine simultaneous matches that “forced” fans to dust off little radios (or, perhaps, the most modern apps) to find out in real time the result of the direct competitor.
It happened in Milan and Naples as well, with Inter and Neapolitans playing for the Scudetto on a truly sensational day. It was a heart-stopping, nail-biting finale in a direct thread that linked Parma – where McTominay and his teammates were on the field – and Milan. Inter, engaged against Lazio, twice saw a counter-takeover of Napoli and the top of the standings.
Twice, however, it was reeled in by a rampaging Pedro, now in his second youth. Napoli, on the other hand, failed to pierce the goal defended by Suzuki, for a 0-0 draw that nevertheless provided such thrills as Anguissa’s goalpost in the first half and McTominay’s cross directly from a free kick.
Inter, sorpasso fallito al Napoli: ed ora il tecnico rischia
A Sunday that may have also created some heartbreak for fans of both Napoli and Inter. At the final whistle, however, it was time for comments and analysis, even criticism. And so, as often happens, social media became the thermometer of the mood of the square.

And in the crosshairs of critics is Simone Inzaghi, the coach who is dragging Inter to the top. The coach has done a great job so far: the Champions League final and fighting for the Scudetto until the last day, with the only blemish being the Coppa Italia semifinal lost to Milan.
Yet evidently this is not enough. The lack of success against Lazio with the related failed overtaking against Napoli stopped at 0-0 by Parma has unleashed the fans. On X started to depopulate the hastag #Inzaghiout with a multitude of fans very dissatisfied with the management of the coach from Piacenza.
Bufera su Inzaghi: c’è una sola strada possibile per il tecnico
In the last four years the coach is blamed for winning only one Scudetto (not counting Super Cups) and losing at least two, especially the first one against Milan with a final mockery by the Rossoneri. And this year the same script seems to be repeating itself, with the Nerazzurri braking in Bologna and against Roma suffering overtaking without being able to make up for it.

And to no avail in the same period were the two Champions League finals reached. The one lost to Manchester City two seasons ago still stings, but optimism is high ahead of May 31 in the match to be played against Paris Saint Germain.
Of course, the fans’ discontent could change in the coming days. Should overtaking Napoli come on the final day, well, the 21st title would give a whole new face to the Nerazzurri season, with the Champions League really the icing on the cake at that point.
La Champions per rivalutare Inzaghi: la situazione
If not, even just Champions would be enough for Nerazzurri fans to reevaluate Simone Inzaghi. But is the coach really in danger? Absolutely not. In Viale della Liberazione they are more than satisfied with the work of the technician, who is also able to re-evaluate the Nerazzurri squad.
From Acerbi to Dumfries, from Bastoni to Calhanoglu and Dimarco to Lautaro Martinez and Thuram: these are just a few of the players who have either relaunched themselves or consecrated themselves definitively with skyrocketing valuations, especially for the two strikers. And even in the case of a double mockery, with a “zero-title” season, the situation would not change, with Marotta at that point committed only to building a stronger squad, waiting for the Club World Cup of course.
