✔ Strategy notes:
At this point it became clear there was enough time and resources to develop Tactical Rigging. With the extra equipment slot, the loadouts for the Temple Ship Assault must be adjusted.
The Scout has an extra slot for the Stellarator (in addition to Scope and Marksman Scope) and Snipers have an extra slot for something — that something most probably being Alloy Bipod. Hence, I am starting New Combat Systems, which is "supposed" to be the first ever Foundry project you do in the early game — but to me it never quite seemed to have any value

Traded 💹 10 Seeker Wrecks to Australia for 2 engineers

Researched 💡 Interrogate Ethereal
🥼 Start Alien Command and Control (4d) 🔽 Elerium –100 Ethereal Device –1

✔ Strategy notes:
Wow! 4 days to research Alien Command and Control ?!?
(and by extension, Mind and Machine will take 4d too)
I had horribly miscalculated this. I thought it would take 15d+15d, and made my plans along the lines of that timing. Where did my math go wrong...?
Now I want to unbuild the Firestorm, and get back the Elerium, of which I'm suddenly having a severe shortage. But it's too late.
On the bright side, all those end-game UFO missions where you're just going through the motions, suddenly are very relevant and important. I need all the Elerium I can get. Mind And Machine consumes 100 Elerium, Gollop Chamber takes 60 Elerium, Vortex Armor takes 100 Elerium to build normally (14d) or 150 to rush-build (7d). I guess I've managed to make it interesting for myself!
So I need 260 or 310 Elerium just for the storyline technologies; any equipment in the "luxury" category will require still more.
I have 86 right now. That's enough to start the Gollop Chamber, I suppose....

🌀 The Sniper with 35% on Mind Merge is booted from Psi Training, Medics go in.

Neither of the two Medics has been able to reach MSGT — where there's a big boost to Will from Extra Conditioning plus the level-up itself. There is no time for them to do more combat missions. They'll have to become Volunteers at GSGT.
Mr.Dillweed has 3480 exp and 102 Will; Mr.Freeze has 3635 exp with 98 Will.

✔ Now that I think about it, it's the same squad that assaulted the Alien Base back in July, only larger. Heavy on MECs, heavy on Snipers. One Scout Officer, one Gunner.

The final battle was extremely easy. I utilized the Ghost Grenade Breach as shown by Mr.Jorbs — the only time I ever use this exceedingly OP item in my campaigns. Everyone moved in, taking care not to put the invisible Marauders too close to the enemy.
Next turn, both Muton Elite Commandos with their super-hot Sentinel Overwatch got disabled at Squadsight range by Gauss Rifle snipers, and left there as inconsequential, to watch the demise of their masters, and give a bonus to my Bring Them On perk.
Uber Ethereal and one baby Ethereal had clustered together, they were chem-grenaded, holo-targeted and shredded by Gunner's Danger Zone Suppression; the other baby Ethereal who had moved away was holo-targeted by Scout's Hit-and-Run shot (32 dmg crit too, nice.)
Finally, exactly 3 MECs got to shoot their guns 3 times each, and there were no more Ethereals.

The Sectopods posed no challenge either, even though I didn't have VPT for Sectopods. (the Aliens had only ever sent down 1 Sectopod, and the autopsy requires 3 corpses. I guess we could've had the 3 corpses now...it's a shame they got blown up with the Temple Ship.) I think 5 MECs got to shoot, and 1 didn't. Chem was out of range but who cares about 8 DR when your guns deal 3 times 25.

Statistics

On the ground, XCOM troops interdicted 2 Alien Harvests (Transport—regular, Harvester—regular) and 1 Alien Research (Raider—trapped.) They completed 2 Exalt missions (1 Data Recovery, 1 Extraction) and 1 Council mission (Bomb Disposal.)

XCOM interceptors shot down 4 Scouts, 4 Fighters, 2 Abductors, 1 Terror Ship, and 1 Assault Carrier. The cost was 93d of repair time, and 5 Aim, 5 Dodge, 4 Boost Modules. (After all the preparations, another Overseer never showed up.)
There are 19 Ravens and 7 Firestorms. All Firestorms and 5 Ravens carry Plasma Cannons as their primary weapon, while the rest carry Phoenix Coilguns.

XCOM soldiers killed 20 Sectoids, 11 Mechtoids, 28 Drones, 23 Thin Men, 35 Seekers, 60 Floaters, 24 Heavy Floaters, 26 Mutons, 12 Muton Berserkers, 14 Muton Elites, 7 Cyberdiscs, 25 Outsiders, 5 Sectoid Commanders, 9 Ethereals, 11 Chryssalids, and 69 Exalt in 18 combat missions, plus some number of aliens on the Temple Ship.
The top damage dealer was the MEC Gauss Railgun.

The most numerous rank on the roster is MSGT (34) and second most numerous rank is GSGT (14). Roster size is 62, but only 48 ever go out on missions.
XCOM field officers are 2 Lieutenants, 2 Captains, 2 Majors, 2 Colonels, 1 Field Commander, all of them Scouts.
In Psionic Training there were 1 successful and 0 failed attempts to learn Tier 2 powers; 6 successful and 2 failed attempts to learn Tier 3 powers; 1 successful and 1 failed attempts to learn Tier 5 powers.

XCOM salvage teams retrieved 784 Elerium, 855 Alloys, 404 Fragments, 277 Meld, 21 intact and 23 damaged Flight Computers, 13 intact and 15 damaged Power Sources, 14 intact and 14 damaged Alien Stasis Tanks, 6 intact and 4 damaged Alien Surgeries, and 2 Fusion Cores. (The most ever — but only some of it in time to be used in construction.)

XCOM earned $5175 from Grey Market sales.
XCOM received $893, 2 scientists, 4 engineers, and 1 CPL by fulfilling Council requests.
XCOM received $645 as mission rewards.
XCOM received $1992, 9 scientists, and 7 engineers as monthly funding.

The science team researched Interrogate Muton Elite, UFO Analysis Assault Carrier, Ethereal Autopsy, Interrogate Ethereal, Alien Command And Control, and Mind And Machine.
In the foundry, Ammo Conservation, Psi Warfare Systems, Enhanced Plasma, New Combat Systems, Tactical Rigging, and Super Skyranger were developed.
The engineering team built 6 Laboratories, 1 Gollop Chamber, and dismantled 7 Workshops at the base. They built 2 Firestorms, 2 Plasma Cannons, 2 Aim Modules, 2 Dodge Modules, 2 Boost Modules, 2 MEC-1 Paladins, 2 Particle Cannons, 2 Railguns, 1 Plasma Dragon, 7 SCOPEs, 4 Neural Gunlinks, 2 Plasma Stellarators, 3 Alloy Jacketed Rounds, 3 Alloy Bipods, 1 Walker Servos, 1 Chem Grenade, 1 Psi Grenade, 1 Shadow Device, 1 Mind Shield, 1 Aurora Armor, and 1 Vortex Armor for the troops.

✔ Strategy notes:
The primary job of Firestorms once they get their Plasma Cannons is to shoot down Overseers for Ethereal Corpses. 3 corpses and 1 captive are required to win the game. (On the tactical layer I am so strong that the Temple Ship is already very easy)
Is it better to deploy the Firestorms in teams of 2, or to send a single Firestorm to every continent?
(Assuming you only have 5 or 6 at this point in the campaign. Of course when you have 10 just send them out in pairs.)
Mr.Jorbs' airgame simulator spreadsheet gives 99.9% kill probabilty on the Overseer if engaged by 2 Firestorms with Aim and Dodge modules. 68% for a single Firestorm, 88% if assisted by a Plasma Raven, 76% if Coilgun Raven.
Catching the Overseer is the tricky part. You can't predict where it's going to show up. I am assuming it is at random, with equal probability for each continent.
With 5 Firestorms stationed 1 each on all continents, the chance of getting a kill is
(5/5)×76% = 76%
With 5 Firestorms distributed 2–2–1–0–0, it is
(2/5)×100% + (1/5)×76% + (2/5)×0% = 55%
The math is clearly in favor of a wide coverage instead of locally ensuring a kill.

🤡 The Covert Operative is back from fatigue but the Exalt Reminder says "Scan for Exalt in 5 days." This can't be right. Is this why I've been having all that Exalt sabotage happen a couple of days before the Exalt Reminder mod wants me to scan? I guess let's order the scan now, and see. Incidentally, my cash is below the $60 cost. That's a first in quite a while. Those Plasma Cannons cost a fair chunk, don't they?

📝 Strategy notes:
The reward for this mission is Panic Reduction, $170, 1 Sergeant. I don't need any of those... I don't need the mission XP either, basically everyone is already a MSGT.
I guess I'm getting 20 Weapon Fragments. I don't really need them. Heavy Plasma Weapons should be the last tech I ever research, other than the required Alien Command And Control and Mind And Machine. All I can get out of the mission are potential wounds or deaths, and the "fun" of facing 16 Heavy Floaters.
What happens if I turn down the Council Mission? Do I get fired as the commander of XCOM?
Now if those were 12 Heavy Floaters led by 4 Ethereals, I'd be so all over it.

Battlescanners work fine on Earth's wide-open battlefields, but inside the Assault Carrier with its narrow, winding corridors, a Battlescanner just doesn't have that many tiles in sight... and then it expires. However, in such environment, the Concealment Scout thrives.

But there's only 2 months left in the campaign so why bother. I'll just let them serve as carriers of a million battlescanners.

1 Concealment Scout, Gauss Stuttergun?, Walker Servos, Corsair Armor
1 Sniper with Plasma Marksman Rifle, Neural Gunlink, Stellarator
2 Snipers with Gauss Marksman Rifle, Neural Gunlink, AJR
I need 6 MEC-1 suits (have 4), 4 MEC Gauss guns (have 2), 3 Stellarators (have 0), 6 AJR (have 4), 3 Neural Gunlinks (have 0), 10 SCOPEs including 3 to convert into Gunlinks (have 4), 1 Mind Shield (have 0)
I'll see how it goes, maybe more MECs will get Plasma guns instead of Gauss if Elerium is plentiful
I don't remember — was the Shredder debuff essential? I can bring a Gunner instead of one Sniper, I can bring a Rocketeer, I can pick Shredder Ammo on one Shogun ...

✔ Strategy notes:
Just how much time is left?
Researching Alien Command And Control should take about 15 days. Then, Mind And Machine has exactly the same research cost so another 15 days. I remember Ethereal Interrogation and Autopsy taking some sizable time, about a week. Plus another week to build the Vortex Armor. All added together, the Temple Ship Assault is happening sometime in mid-February. That's good enough. It's fast enough to avoid the hardcoded XCOM Base Defense in March.
I don't actually have a lot of experience with this phase of the campaign. In my previous campaign I played to around here (Ethereal capture) and called it a win. The aliens were thoroughly dominated, but The Volunteer was nowhere near ready, and I wasn't too excited about another couple of months of Psi grind. This time, I made sure to start my Psi training pretty early.

Summary

During the previous couple of months, the most precious resource was Weapon Fragments, which the Plasma Weapons research consumes by the hundred. Other Alien Materials like Alloys and Elerium have had a bit of time to accumulate. They are now being spent to build as many Firestorm interceptors as possible, and their weapons. So far, 5 are operational, 1 in each continent.
A Firestorm on its own has about a 2 in 3 chance of shooting down the Overseer. 2 Firestorms guarantee a kill. The next goal is to have 10 Firestorms, 2 in each continent, but that takes a while. As an interim measure, 5 Ravens will be given Plasma Cannons, so that after the Overseer has been heavily damaged by a Firestorm, they can finish it off in a very short encounter aided by Aim and Dodge modules.
The Hyperwave Relay completed mid-month, and the first Overseer of the campaign was detected late in the month over North America. The single Firestorm stationed there was lucky enough to defeat the Overseer. One Ethereal was obtained. At least four are necessary: 1 captive and 3 corpses. It is too early in the campaign for Ethereals to spawn on regular ground missions. Shooting down UFOs that are piloted by Ethereals is crucial. The network of interceptors for doing so is about halfway in place.
An Assault Carrier that was inserting troops to create a Terror Site was shot down by a Plasma-armed Firestorm. It provided one Ethereal corpse. However, an Abductor managed to slip through while the Firestorm there was repairing. The Firestorms are powerful, but there isn't enough of them yet.
The two Harvest missions for the month were a Transport (regular) and a Harvester (regular.) The Alien Research mission was a Scout (regular.)
All Scout, Hunt, and Bomb missions were intercepted; small UFOs, mostly. 13 UFO assaults in total this month.
1 Terror (carried over from last month), 2 Abductions, 1 Council mission (generic Asset Recovery), 3 Exalt missions (1 Data Recovery, 2 Extractions.)

Statistics

XCOM interceptors shot down 3 Scouts, 3 Fighters, 1 Raider, 1 Overseer, 1 Terror Ship, 1 Assault Carrier, while 2 Abductors slipped in unopposed, and 1 Fighter blew up in midair. The cost was 125d of repair time, and 5 Aim, 2 Dodge, 3 Boost Modules.
There are 19 Ravens and 5 Firestorms. All Ravens carry Phoenix Coliguns and all Firestorms carry Plasma Cannons as their primary weapon.

XCOM soldiers killed or captured 36 Sectoids, 17 Mechtoids, 15 Drones, 33 Thin Men, 25 Seekers, 46 Floaters, 17 Heavy Floaters, 30 Mutons, 8 Muton Berserkers, 27 Muton Elites, 2 Cyberdiscs, 29 Outsiders, 13 Sectoid Commanders, 2 Ethereals, 1 Sectopod, 11 Chryssalids, and 72 Exalt in 20 combat missions.
The top damage dealer was the MEC Gauss Railgun.

The most numerous rank on the roster is GSGT (24) and second most numerous rank is MSGT (21). Roster size is 61, but only 48 ever go out on missions.
Newly available powerful perks are Rapid Fire (Pathfinder), In The Zone (Sniper.)
XCOM field officers are 1 Lieutenant, 2 Captains, 2 Majors, 2 Colonels, 1 Field Commander, all of them Scouts.
In Psionic Training there were 6 successful and 3 failed attempts to learn Tier 2 powers; 4 successful and 1 failed attempts to learn Tier 3 powers.

XCOM salvage teams retrieved 675 Elerium, 734 Alloys, 437 Fragments, 356 Meld, 14 intact and 26 damaged Flight Computers, 9 intact and 19 damaged Power Sources, 15 intact and 7 damaged Alien Stasis Tanks, 6 intact and 1 damaged Alien Surgeries, 2 Fusion Cores, and 1 Ethereal Device.
Capture Engineers brought in 4 Sectoids, 4 Thin Men, 8 Floaters, 5 Heavy Floaters, 4 Mutons, 1 Muton Berserker, 7 Muton Elites, 2 Sectoid Commanders, 1 Ethereal, and 8 Outsider Shards; with 6 Alien Pistols, 20 Alien Carbines, 9 Alien Rifles, 7 Alien Heavy Weapons, 2 Exalt Laser Rifles, and 20 worthless Alien Grenades.

XCOM earned $1490 from Grey Market sales.
XCOM received $765, 1 scientist, 6 engineers, and 6 CPLs by fulfilling Council requests.
XCOM received $986 and 1 SGT as mission rewards.
XCOM received $1992, 9 scientists, and 7 engineers as monthly funding.

The science team researched Precision Plasma Weapons, UFO Analysis Harvester, Heavy Plasma Weapons, UFO Analysis Overseer, and Muton Elite Autopsy.
In the foundry, MEC Advanced Servomotors were developed.
The engineering team built 1 Hyperwave Relay at the base. They built 3 Firestorms, 10 Plasma Cannons, 5 Aim Modules, 2 Dodge Modules, 3 Boost Modules, 2 Reflex Rifles, 1 Walker Servos, 1 Reinforced Armor, and 1 Chitin Plating for the troops.

Hi everybody! Not sure if you guys have heard, the 4th batch X2100 crowdfunding is on!
I am the modder behind xy.tech (and Instagram). I have built plenty of systems for fans all around the world, including X330, X210, X62 and so on.

CROWDFUNDING

51nb has officially started the 4th batch crowdfunding with 10th gen Inte CPU. As a huge fan of the site and of Hope, the original developer of the motherboard, I would like to help fans on this forum get on board on this crowdfunding by offering the opportunity to participate in it at the same price as 51nb.
The specification of the board is an i7-10510u Comet Lake, and a USB-C with data and displayport (no charging unfortunately). It has the same layout and specifications as the 3rd batch motherboard.
The full specs of the machine can be viewed here.
The pricing is 4399RMB, or 620USD.
All payment will be done via PayPal for buyer's protection. This excludes the ~4.45% PayPal tax. Shipping worldwide will be $60USD. Other payment methods such as bank transfer, transferwise, or cryptocurrencies are welcomed and the 4.45% PayPal tax will be passed on to participants but all additional charges will be borne by the participant. Shipping can be arranged by participant too.
Terms of participation:

All payments are made directly to 51nb. I am only helping to facilitate this transaction.
I am not responsible for the motherboards. They will be shipped directly to international shipping and I will NOT check or inspect the motherboard.
All warranties, issues, problems or otherwise unsatisfactory will be resolved directly with 51nb.
I am not affiliated with 51nb whatsoever and I am in no part an employee or financially involved with the company.
NO REFUND will be issued once you purchase the motherboard

PERIPHERALS, FULL MACHINE & OTHERS

I would also like to offer other peripherals and services for the X210. These will NOT be a product by 51nb and is not affiliated to 51nb.

Full testing of the motherboard
Motherboard will be fully tested for port functionality and stability. Each internal port (NVMe, 2.5", mSATA, miniPCIe) will be populated, along with all the external ports (USB, miniDP, LVDS & eDP) and will be stress tested for 4hrs to ensure stability. More details will be confirmed once the crowdfunding is a success.
The price for this will be $70USD

Peripherals & others
The peripherals offered is as follows:

Mod	Price	Description
Port covers	$20USD	Port cover for blocking up the bottom docking connector and the expresscard slot (with only miniDP left).
Custom cooling fan assembly by 17m19	$50USD	The custom cooling solution will be a custom 3 pipe fan that is able to enable a sustained 30+w of i7 performance.
13" 3K by 2K 3:2 display. A preassembled top half for easy installation. Original concept by Barry & 17m19	$210USD	13" 3K by 2K display. Display is the ThinkPad X1 tablet display. It has an ultra-thin bezel and only sacrifices the Camera.
Insulating mylar sheets	$10USD	Better than the factory pasted mylar sheets. Custom CNCed and looks a lot better than the transparent factory pasted sheets.
Other components (RAM, SSD, WiFi, 4G, battery, charger)	Market prices	All components will be offered at market rate. 16GB RAM: $60USD. 1TB PM981 SSD: $130USD
Shipping (not for main laptop)	$60

These 4 will be the 4 primary accessories. All pricing excludes shipping.

Full machine assembly
The cost for a full barebones machine & specs are as listed here:

Options	Cost	Remarks
13" 3K by 2K ultra-thin bezel display barebones i7	$1210USD incl shipping via PayPal. $1160USD for all other methods of payments (buyer will bear additional costs involved)	No battery, ram, ssd, CMOS battery. Charger will be included. WiFi included will be by default the 7260ac (I am still figuring out the AX200 and how to install the antennas in the new display). Machine will be in minimally A- condition but most will be in A or A+ condition.
12.2" stock sized FHD barebones i7	$1110 inc shipping via PayPal. $1060 for all other methods of payment (buyer will bear additional costs involved)	No battery, ram, ssd, CMOS battery.

PAYMENT & WARRANTY INFORMATION
The default payment option will be PayPal, as it is the most used online payment method across the globe. As there is a ~4.45% tax for PayPal transactions, I also accept other payment forms such as transferwise, bank transfer, cryptocurrencies.

Please reach me via PM here, on any of my social media, or drop me an email: [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])

Shipping will be $60 for the motherboard option. Shipping for the laptop is included in the pricing. For individual purchases of peripherals, separate shipping will be factored in.
For tax, all motherboards or computers will be under declared as much as possible to reduce import tax. This of course means no insurance. For members living in Europe where tax is insanely high, this will save quite a bit of money. I have shipped many laptops to Europe, USA, Asia and even South Africa and they were delivered with no issues.
For warranty for the motherboard only, it will be provided from 51nb as you are purchasing directly from 51nb. For full machine build or parts, if the issue is detected early, I will bear the cost of shipping back to China and the repair associated with it. Otherwise, a partial or full refund will be issued depending on the issue.

ABOUT 51NB, AND ABOUT ME & LCDFANS
51nb is a small technology company who's main focus is their website, 51nb, which is a technology website offering reviews, services and peripherals. The forum is famous for the ThinkPad forum, which is the number 1 forum in the Chinese cyberspace for ThinkPad enthusiasts. The custom motherboard is a sub component of the 51nb forum, which was originally started by Hope in order to fulfill his dream and satisfy many of the ThinkPad fans in China. Hope and his 51nb team has no affiliation to other modders regarding the crowdfunded motherboard.
Unofficially however, there are many brilliant modders in China who post frequently in 51nb about ThinkPad mods. The X210 project has brought about many wonderful mods, such as the 13" display and the custom cooling assembly. Other prominent mod includes the X330 mods, which I am currently offering with a.gain's mod.
These modders are not legally, officially endorsed by the forum or 51nb. They are just like you, huge fans of the ThinkPads who love to tinker. The motherboard is the only official project offered by 51nb, and they have NEVER officially offered it outside of China.
For those who have seen or know about this saga, the modder behind these websites, Jacky, is NOT officially part of 51nb. He is indeed a wonderful modder who produces amazing machines, but the fact that his website states that he IS 51nb will cause legal issues with Lenovo. Lenovo has sent official warnings regarding the motherboards, and full machine builds will only cause more trouble for 51nb.

He is now an officially endorsed resale vendor approved by 51nb. The requirement is to have 50 motherboard orders, which I do not have. There are no difference between official resale vendor and what I offer, as the warranty is still the same. The official 51nb warranty is to send in your machine back to China for repairs. This is why I offer to pay for shipping and a refund policy for those who have issues with their machines.

I am a fan of ThinkPad for years and I started xy.tech in order to make these Chinese mods more accessible to the international audience. They include X330 and custom motherboards by 51nb such as the X210, X62 and T70. I am not affiliated to 51nb, but I am friends with many modders there and would love to spread their work. I also do IBM keyboard mods as well as other vintage keyboard modding.

FC Internazionale Milano 2018/19 Preview

by members of FCInterMilan
About:
After a schism with Milan Cricket & Football Club, some of the directors got together at a pub and created a separate identity, FC Internationale Milano with the famous words;
"This wonderful night bestows us with the colours of our crest: black and azure against a gilded backdrop of stars. It shall be called International, because we are brothers of the world."
It took just two years for Internazionale Football Club Milano to win what was the first of 18 Scudetti for the Nerazzurri. The Golden period was, undoubtedly, from 1960-68, which gave us 2 European Cups, 3 Scudetti, & numerous other finals appearances & other smaller titles. It's known in our history as 'La Grande Inter.'
All-in-all, we're known for the Italian Treble, a history of good players, never having dropped down to Serie B, and unleashing what went on to become the bible of Italian football, the World renowned 'Catenaccio'.

What went right?

Most importantly, Inter brought in Spalletti, a tactically competent manager who knows Serie A very well and has proven to be a leader since the first few training sessions. (He told a fan off who was insulting Ranocchia during training). Inter was supposed to go big in the transfer market this season, being linked with the likes of Di Maria, Arturo Vidal and Nainggolan. However due to Financial Fair Play and the Chinese government putting a limit on foreign sport investments, Inter fans saw their high expectations crushed. The summer 2017 mercato was underwhelming, but functional. Some old, unhappy or deadwood players were sold or loaned (Palacio, Banega, Kondogbia, Biabiany, Gabibench). Inter then got a defensive leader in Skriniar (A masterstroke by Ausilio), who exceeded all expectations and helped Inter to be the 4 the best defence in Serie A. Cancelo was Serie A’s best right back, after he settled into the team by December. The promising young Karamoh became a fan favourite. Borja Valero guided our midfield well throughout the first half of the season but was completely exhausted in January.
Due to limited player options Spalletti's robust play (mostly wing dominant) was great until the winter. Once opposing teams realised that, instead of trying to stop Icardi, that if they cut off the wings, Icardi was useless & suffocated, the whole complexion of the games changes. Inter dropped a lot of points to mediocre teams. Ausilio, under the guidance of Spalletti, then went about trying to rectify the situation by bringing in Rafinha. Within a couple of games complexion of play changed, with him lighting up the midfield and attack in the second half of the season, contributing to the run for CL.
Spalletti also halted Brozovic’s transfer to Sevilla on deadline day in January and changed his position, putting him as regista for the tired Borja Valero, with outstanding results. When Icardi was injured, Eder was put as a starter and stepped up, netting 3 goals in 5 matches. Icardi did what he is paid for and secured the title of capocannoniere alongside Immobile with 29 goals each. It is his highest Serie A tally so far.

What went wrong?

As explained previously, tactics got stale, and opposition adapted. Candreva, supposedly a flying winger, couldn't score a single goal all season. Bereft of his pace, his crossing was wayward too. Furthermore, since no European nights were present, squad was thin. Once Perisic suffered a drop in form, and Valero showed his age, the effect on the results was brutal.
Other than that, no significant injuries were suffered. Spalletti did well to navigate a really tricky season, and Ausilio did well to help the team on in January, when zero funds weren't available.

The Critical Last Match of the season:

It came down to the final matchday: Lazio - Inter in Rome. Inter started the match dominating in possession and Lazio very aggressively pressing them high in their own half, managing to win a ball and get a nice action going which finished with a shot by Marusic, which would have gone wide out but was unfortunately deflected by Perisic’s face to make a very unlucky own goal in the 9th minute.
Inter started pushing, but took some risks as Milinkovic- Savic hit a post on a freekick and Lazio had a few decent chances. The goal came in the 29th minute when the corner taken by Brozovic was chested goalwards by the D’Ambrosio, which Strakosha managed to block off with his hands before D’Ambrosio hit it in the net with some sort of bicycle kick from behind the keeper. In the 41st minute Lazio hit again on a textbook counter with an amazing through ball by Senad Lulic to Felipe Anderson who was too speedy for D’Ambrosio and slotted it perfectly past Handanovic. Inter comes out for the second half attacking, Lazio trying to hit on the counter. To spice things up in the second half Spalletti brought on Eder for Candreva (someone please take him) in the 63rd and the young Karamoh for Rafinha, who had a hard time unmarking himself between the lines and played a poor match, in the 68th minute.
In the 75th minute Inzaghi makes a choice that would later reveal its importance, by taking of Immobile (who was injured prior to this game) and putting a swole fullback, Jordan Lukaku (same build as his brother at ManU), defending the 2-1 lead. Two minutes after the substitution De Vrij, who signed on a free with Inter 3 weeks prior fouls Icardi in the box, who would have had free shot on goal otherwise. Icardi steps up to take it as cool as a cucumber with his usual composure from the penalty spot to tie Immobile as joint top scorer with 29 league goals. A minute later Lulic gets his second yellow for an unnecessary tackle on Brozovic in Inter’s half of the pitch, stupidly giving Inter the edge over the remaining 15 minutes.
Inter puts in Ranocchia as a third CB to have an advantage on set pieces and play some sort of 3-5-2, going all in. In the 81st minute on a corner both Ranocchia and Vecino make a run to the first post, the ball flying millimetres over the head of the CB before being headed in by Vecino who was just behind him: LA PRENDRE VECIIIIIIIIIINOOOOOO! Inzaghi puts on Nani for De Vrij in desperation but Lazio can’t turn it around anymore, Inter go to Champions League on level points with better head to head record.
Shout-out to Walter Zenga, who, even as the coach of another team, kept Inter in his heart, and without who's contribution (his team drew 2-2 against Lazio in the match before Inter's), Inter would not be in the Champions League this season.
Match highlights
What the fans think (by FCInterMilan):

1. What important bits are noteworthy for the casual fans?

(by u/vik1980):
Suning's Importance
By the time Moratti sold the club, it was in complete disrepair. A couple of decades of indulgence & excess as drained the club. We no longer had the young talent to guarantee a future, or the funds to throw at young but proven players. Thohir's importance in the turnaround cannot be overstated. His involvement was akin to finding a banged-up sports car and giving it a complete engine overhaul, and a spanking new paint job. Only Thohir was only in it for the short-term. He never planned on starting a new era. Thankfully, he achieved his goals fantastically. He turned the club around, and then found an owner who had the long-term view Moratti longed to see at the club. Suning's time at the club is making to buying a first-class sports car, and them assembling a complete racing team around it.
They've only continued Thohir's initiative of opening up Youth Academies all around the globe, with reports of them cropping up in Asia, Africa & South America like wild mushrooms. They're also not just taking a long-term view, by concentrating on young players only. By their eagerness to bring Modric, they show their football knowledge. Modric's game or physical built is not one that'll age poorly. And his recent performances in the World Cup and influence in Real Madrid's Treble (3xChampions League) means his brand value in China will push Inter to the next level there.
Furthermore, they've been involved in everything concerning not just the club, but football in general. They've been involved in buying Serie A telecasting rights for China, along with other major leagues. This, along with their ownership of Jiangsu Suning FC means they're in it for the long haul. Their goal is to not just spend money and taking Inter to the top (like Abrahimovic at Chelsea) before losing interest. They plan on making a whole business in and around this sector, calling it Suning Sport. Suning is a multi-billion dollar company and have already established great contacts with the owners of Atalanta & Sampdoria (two clubs with notoriously good youth development track record).
Given all these facts, once Inter can free themselves of FFP, their might on the transfer market will really begin to shine through, and the fact that they have a team in China too, means they'll also attract massive fans there, and tempt big names into accepting Inter before going for the golden ticket in China. Simply put, Inter's current cycle is a snowball rolling down a mountain. It'll only get easier to turn it into an avalanche.
Spalletti's Influence
In all this, it's impossible to overlook Spaletti's influence at the club. If Ausilio is doing such a wonderful job in the transfer market, it's thanks to Spalletti clearly explaining to him the kind of players he wants for the team, and why he wants them. He also understands some of the reasons behind the club not making all the transfers he wants. This is the big difference between this market, and Mancini demeaning the sale of Icardi to fund moves for Yaya & one of Zlatan or Dzeko. If Vidal is not at Inter, it's because Spalletti deemed him 'not essential' to his project. If Nainggolan is there, it's because Spalletti clearly explained & convinced the management the reasons why he was indispensable. If Ausilio is the thoroughbred racehorse, Spalletti is the jockey on top of him. Simply put, not a single blade of grass in Appiano Gentile is where Spalletti doesn't want it to be.
Whether he ends up leading this club to eventual trophies (by way of consistent performances & results) or just ends up becoming the Ranieri to a Jose Mourinho type coach who takes the club to that next level is unimportant. Just the fact that he's the first coach since Jose Mourinho who's starting a second consecutive season at the club tells you how important his role is. He brings continuity & stability the club hasn't seen since Mourinho himself.

Which players are you expecting to have breakout seasons?

Lautaro:

Given enough playtime, which shouldn't be that hard with 3 competitions, I expect he'll have a strong season. He has been doing fantastically in the preseason and I could potentially see him as a starting partner with Icardi. (by u/Cerozz)
This kid reminds me of Luis Suarez. One can even call him a cross between Tevez, Aguero & Suarez. He's technically sound, physically strong, high work-rate and good movement. He's even a solid finished off either foot. Inter have a real gem on their hands, and if they can develop him right (not use him as a AM, Trequartista, winger, but develop him mostly as a forward), he might end up surpassing Icardi & becoming one of the best forwards in World Football. Icardi's best season, in terms of assists, was when he played with Palacio as a partner. Since then, his assists have dried up simply because there's no-one to lay the ball off to. I expect that to change this season and see him getting 8+ assists. Simply put, with Lautaro's arrival, Icardi should be both worried & happy. It'll mean the clubs dependency on him will be reduced, but it'll also mean he'll have much more of a chance to move for much higher wages. If you think it's outlandish to think this, just watch Lautaro's growth this season. (by u/vik1980)
I am really hyped about Lautaro: his addition to the squad is exactly what we needed, last year we lacked a good back up for Icardi, which meant that Mauro had to play even when he was not 100% fit and moreover, it forced us to have basically one tactic (or slight variations of it with only 1 forward). Having Lautaro in the team increases the depth and could create a good partnership in attack. I am also hoping that Skriniar will confirm himself as one of the best CBs in the world, even in this case I think Spalletti will try to adopt the 3 atb system more often. (by u/mangowhymango)

Dalbert:

He had a bad first year, overshadowed by the more technically gifted Cancelo. He was rumoured as flop and a few teams were interested in buying him after this decent preseason. Spalletti is forging him as he forged Cancelo, just on the left side instead of the right one. (by u/head_in_the_clouds69)
Also, I still haven't given up on Dalbert. If he stays, I still say he'll end up surprising Inter supporters. (by u/vik1980)

Who was the best buy so far?

Asamoah:

The left side has been plagued for years (the Dalbert experiment continues). We miraculously sold Santon and Nagatomo, and were able to snatch up Asamoah on a free. So far in preseason, Kwadwo, who was a rotation player at Juventus, has shown quality and experience. Though he may not be a flashy player, he is technically gifted and can adapt to play LB, LM and LW, works hard in training and genuinely appreciates being at the club. (by u/zodiac55)
Another great signing. If he stays healthy he'll be a great option on the left side. He's a good veteran to have.

Lautaro:

Lautaro will win the balon d'or in the next seven years. I fucking said it! His positioning and the way he reads the game is already on a high level. If he keeps putting in the work I think he can be one of the best players we've seen in a real long time. I'd rather not go for Rafinha and give those minutes to Lautaro. (by u/internazionale)
Lautaro is showing in pre-season that he deserves a place. I really hope he can play alongside Icardi (whether beside or behind) in the team. He is a talent and needs to play. I'm so excited for his future alongside Icardi.

Vrsalkjo:

I can't say much about him. I didn't watch the World Cup so I don't know much about him other than I heard he did good. That is a bit scary as Atletico fans don't seem to high on him and we all know players can perform well at the World Cup, earning a big transfer, and then flop. So I hope he does good. (by u/soulagony)

Nainggolan:

Not much needs to be said here. He's one of the best midfielders in Serie A and the World. He will soon decline with his age and play style, but he will give us a few good years and good value.

De Vrij:

Him alongside of Skriniar can form one of the best defences in the league. They are both relatively young and incredibly talented. I have high hopes for de Vrij.

Politano:

Good replacement for Candreva. I'm not exactly against Candreva like a lot of people are, but if Inter are to make the next step they need to improve in quality. Politano will provide that. He's not a superstar, but he's a great pickup to provide us depth by pushing Candreva further down the order.

3. The Future

Inter's future as a well-oiled machine:

Most of the current squad is in different age group batches. There's the 24-26-year-old group (Icardi, Politano, De Vrij, Brozovic, Vrsaljko etc.) who can keep the club rolling for the next 5-7 years, the 30+ group (D'Ambrosio, Miranda, Handanovic, Nainggolan, Perisic, Asamoah etc.) who'll add veteran leadership to this team, and the 20-23 yo's (Karamoh, Skriniar, Lautaro, maybe Keita) who'll take the club forward. Currently, the only position that'll need to get looked at in the short future is Handanovic, and being that he's a goalkeeper, that's not a pressing need at all.

Is there anything to worry about?

One thing I'm worried about is what'll happen in the next transfer window for Inter. They'd taken Cancelo & Rafinha on loan with option to buy, but didn't, even when they played great & were integral to getting International back to Champions League football. Next season, we'll have to buy Politano, Sime, Keita and probably another midfielder (Modric, Paredes, Barella etc.). That's a lot of money committed to going out for players who'll already be here. It means that we'll only be able to pay off these transfers, but not strengthen further, unless we have an exceedingly deep run in the Champions League. While this squad won't require too much more spending, it'll still need some tune-ups, and committing an outlaw of 90-100m to retaining current players will mean FFP will be watching us like a hawk before we try to bring anyone new in. (by u/vik1980)

Predicted XI (4-2-3-1):

Handanovic;
Vrsaljko, De Vrij, Skriniar, Asamoah;
Vecino, Brozovic;
Politano, Nainggolan, Perisic;
Icardi(c)
Bench: Padelli, Ranocchia, Miranda, D’Ambrosio, Dalbert, Gagliardini, Borja Valero, Candreva, Karamoh, Lautaro Martinez, Salcedo, Keita.

Wrap Up

Shout outs: Mauro Icardi carried the team with his 29 goals, often being ice cold in crucial moments. Candreva hasn’t scored a single one; Karamoh, Eder and Rafinha and Brozovic had a total of 10 between them. The only one managing to slightly keep up was Perisic with 11 goals (+11 assists). Behaved like a true captain this transfer window, calling up, welcoming and offering to help them settle down in Milano. Also seems to have a friend + mentor role for Lautaro Martinez, which makes him seem like a veteran amongst the others, although being only 25 years old. Icardi is the kind of player of stays silent and works hard on himself and always wants to win. He might disappear in matches but in the blink of eye reappears where he needs to with a clinical finish. Mauro’s not very technical but is extremely good in the air despite being “only” 1.81m (compared to Dzeko’s 1.93m) and very clinical, needs few chances to score. He presses extremely well and seemingly without exhaustion, which I just noticed in the recent friendlies where he was on the bench and the replacements barely put any threat on the back line of the opposing team.
He is our 8th top scorer in history with 107 goals in 182 appearances and I can easily see him become number 1 if he stays for the next 4+ years. Top scorer is Giuseppe Meazza with 195 goals in 303 apps).
Summary: 'Houston, we have a project.' We sold deadwood, we kept our key players, added great functional signings and also promising talent. Aim is to create havoc in CL, considering we’ll probably get the group of death as we are in pot 4. Object is to have a good showing. Round of 8 would be good, if we aren’t drawn against a Top 5 team then quarterfinal would be absolutely awesome for this team with little experience in such a competition. In the league the aim is not to challenge Juve for the scudetto, but to firmly establish ourselves within the top 4. Will be tough considering Lazio and Milan’s good mercato and the Roma’s and Napoli’s consistency in being top 3 in recent years. However, I think Napoli might be a little weaker than last year and Roma approximately the same, has lost experience but gained a lot of unpredictability and young talent, that, if nurtured right, can give them good results.
Why like them: We're impartial to colour, race, nationality or creed. If you're a good football player and have grit to be there, there's a place for you in the team. As long as you follow the same guidelines in showing support, there's a place for you between the fans. Highest fan attendance in Italy, good tifos.
Why dislike them: You are a fan of a team in Pot 1-3 of the Champions League draw. Inter, through poor and non-existent European experience of the past, will likely be in a group of death scenario and should not be taken lightly. Apart that, there's no reason. Unless you support a rival Italian club, you can't not love the founding principles of this club.
If the team was a cartoon character, who would it would be: Popeye, before AND after he's had his spinach showing both sides of la PAZZA INTER.
