Reports suggest Gabriel Barbosa is frustrated over his lack of playing time at Inter so far.

The Brazilian striker, known as Gabigol, arrived from Santos in the summer after being chased by a host of European clubs.

Having joined up with the squad late after the Olympics, it was clear that the 20-year-old wasn’t going to go straight into the first team.

However, Gabigol has played just 16 minutes so far, with Coach Frank de Boer preferring to bring on Stevan Jovetic when looking for options up-front.

Now Calciomercato is reporting that the player’s entourage are leaking information that the striker isn’t happy with the situation.

De Boer continually declares that Gabigol isn’t ready, something which it’s thought has irritated the youngster.

Furthermore, the Nerazzurri pushed hard to bring him from Santos over the summer, and if he wasn’t going to play he’d have preferred to stay until the end of the Brazilian season.

It has been suggested that the Beneamata want to avoid overburdening Gabigol, as Milan are generally agreed to have done with Alexandre Pato, whose career was blighted by muscular injuries.

However, Pato had just turned 18 when he made his debut for the Rossoneri, while Gabigol was already a regular at Santos.

Gabigoat has every reason to be pissed at not getting PT. I've watched every Inter game since he was brought up to the active roster, and watching their forward play is brutal for the most part. So it's not like they have a bunch of players setting the world on fire right now ahead of him. If you're losing anyways you might as well give a young player in-game experience. In the brief time he played against Bologna he looked good. It'll be a great day when De Boer gets canned, dude has no idea what he's doing.

These f#ck boys at Inter could have at least let him finish the season at Santos if they weren't going to play him. He's not getting better sitting on the bench, and having him would have us in a better position than 4th right now.

Alaves has no fear of the big clubs. They always come out punching them in the mouth.

If they can beat Barça and Real Madrid in the same year after coming out of the Segunda

I was getting ready to make the "CR7 is decaying before our eyes" thread, and then he dropped a hat trick.


Including this gem

@THEREALBRAND they lost tho...

I was watching it on my DVR. Didn't wake up early enough to see it live.

It looked like Alaves had a slight chance of pulling it out in the first 20 minutes.
