that "the king's groom must have known all the horse thieves", Moggi discussed how "Agnelli said that because during my time it was full of sons of bitches. And he wanted an expert, one who could stand up to these here. For me it's a compliment." In 2017, Moggi said that "VAR was supposed to be the end of the controversy, [but] nothing has changed.

Upon being assigned the 2006 scudetto, Inter Milan and their supporters called it scudetto degli onesti ("scudetto of the honests"). With Juventus' relegation, Inter Milan boasted of becoming the only Serie A club to have never been relegated. Then-Inter Milan owner Massimo Moratti would later state that he did not disdain the 2006 scudetto, as he thought it was just; of the five consecutive championship won by Inter
