Was just going to post this, in fact I was watching Bloomberg which I never do, and saw it on the ticker. It could affect their leeway for new signings, which I would say benefits Tajon. However, Oaktree is actually in a negative cycle, with dropping earnings over a number of quarters, and having to assume this control, losing the return on the debt, apparently has weakened them even more. They'd be smart to look for a more viable buyer who'd assume part of the non-payment for them. Some views say they don't know how to run a club, should have waited for terms with Suning, and that it could weaken Inter going forward.

narduch Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 Buchanan on at 56. Currently 2-2. Last time I checked Mitrovic was lowest rated player on Verona WestHamCanadianinOxford, TGAA_Star, Canuckia and 8 others 9 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InglewoodJack Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 He looked pretty solid. Most dribbles in the match (2) drew 4 fouls in quick succession, and 6/7 on duels, 2/2 on dribbles. Had a really good run in the box off a through ball that could’ve led to a really good scoring chance, but it was coming too quickly and he lost control and it went out.

canadasoccer20 Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 Solid season for Taj. Feel like despite having trouble starting for Inter Milan at the end of the year after they won the league, it seems like he finished the year playing with more confidence. I recall Davies first year at BM he had trouble starting and then took off the 2nd season. A big summer can do wonders for him moving up the depth chart at Inter.

Obinna Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 I am wondering if he gets official recognition from the Club or the League. Does anyone know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sure hope so because he is at one of the best clubs in the world in Inter and under one of the best managers in the world in Simone Inzaghi. Even if I am biased as an Inter fan, Tajon has been such a fit with our team. canadasoccer20 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For Inter - On the right they have: Darmian - 34; out of contract 2025 but an extension possible Cuadrado - 36; out of contract this year and almost for sure leaving Dumfries - 28; out of contract 2025, talks stalled, wanted in England. On the left where Buchanan has been playing mostly : Both Carlos Augusto (25, obliged to buy after a loan) and DiMarco (26) don't seem to be going anywhere. Inzaghi has played some of those guys as centre backs on rare occasions. johnyb, jhoops__, GasPed and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestHamCanadianinOxford Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 Nice to hear generally, but from a Canadian view it blocks a pathway to starting for Buchanan. johnyb, Shway, Kadenge and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shway Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 His window of opportunity just got tighter, but I'm sure Tajon will succeed in this situation. He just needs a real opportunity. Canuckia 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dumfries can want to sign, but it depends on what Inter thinks as well. They might just decide now is the time to sell and fund their next round of players.

Probably more crowded on the left with them having to buy Carlos Augusto and having DiMarco long term. At least Cuadrado is gone and Darmian is old on the right. 17 minutes ago, Watchmen said: Dumfries can want to sign, but it depends on what Inter thinks as well.

I don't think Inter play Dumfries as much as they did if they were looking to move him on. Maybe money comes into it but they are always going to get less if they cash in now, when he has a year left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't think they buy Buchanan if they don't think some spot is going to be freed up for him.

kacbru Posted June 21 Share Posted June 21 Is it better to go to a top team in a top league to ride the bench, or play every day in a lower league? If you are a CMNT fan in the first instance - we got our answer today. Hard to say Tjon's game has improved. Hopefully it is just rust and he gets back his willingness to take guys on.

frmr Posted June 21 Share Posted June 21 Tajon is always either a hero or a zero. When he's on he can change a game by himself, when he's off, he's invisible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a good question, because if he doesn't win a starting spot or gets consistent meaningful mins at Inter nxt season he needs to get a loan.
