If Inter could choose they would like to win both trophies but the situation did not allow it after their energy was focused on one competition, we can only watch while they really feel how difficult it is to compete among elite clubs. Another reason is that the performance of Inter players also seems to be declining for example Lautaro Martinez we don't see his name on the top scorers list this season even though this player is always a mainstay in every match. If next season Inter don't anticipate the striker problem then I won't be surprised if they fail again.
The coach really gambled with the Scudetto this season in my opinion, it got to a point they started losing oints were they were not supposed to. Before the Champions League game against Bayern Munich, they drew twice, one against AC Milan in the Coppa Italia and against Parma in the league. After the second leg against Bayern Munich, they lost 1 - 0 to Bologna in the league and still lost again 3 - 0 to AC Milan in the return leg. Winning against AC Milan would have put them in a position for the finals but they lost. As if that wasn't enough, they still lost again to AS Roma just because they were supposed to play Barcelona that week. That's three straight losses.
