Massimiliano Nebuloni has analyzed the reason that Kovacic has become a goalscorer for Inter:
“Kovacic is one of the players who has most class, he turns up the speed of Inter’s game and offers his teammates many solutions. And more than that this season he has a player like Medel by his side who covers up for him and who takes pressure of Kovacic in the defensive part of the game. This makes Kovacic risk the moves that he wouldn’t do last year because of fear, fear to have to track back and cover up or to let a goal in.”
