After the victory against Genoa, Roberto Mancini went to the press room to answer questions from reporters present. Our partner FcInterNews.it, present with his envoy, brings you the words of coach:

FcIN – Is the experiment with Guarin as a central midfielder temporary or is it going to continue?
“Fredy did quite well as in Turin against Juventus, it isn’t easy to do well in a week, but I think that over time he can get used to it.”

FcIN – Was there an intention to grant those 4-5 minutes to Shaqiri? Podolski at some point ran out of petrol…
“We couldn’t take the risk to make him play, he made only one workout and it would have been risky.”

What do you think the two central defenders?
“They played well, it wasn’t easy. In the second half we got into trouble for physical reasons, but the performance was good.”

Osvaldo was at the stadium: is there room to mend the situation?
“I don’t want to talk about it.”

Have you already informed Andreolli that he will not play anymore after the blow you received from his ball?
“The only ball that he had to let pass behind him he shot forward.”

When will Shaqiri be ready, what roles will Podolski and Hernanes have?
“Now it is important that they all find their condition, the roles will not be a problem.”

2-0 in the first half hasn’t occured since the second round. Is the good start a feature that you have instilled in the team?
“A win doesn’t change much in our way, we have to work to get better.”

Impressions of Vidic:
“I asked him to move the ball, that is all.”

The final formation will be 4-2-3-1 or do you have a change in mind?
“This module gives us coverage of the field and makes us defend well, if we continue like this it’s better.”

You have faced AC Milan, Lazio, Roma and Juventus. Last year Inter didn’t take advantage at times when the schedule was favorable. Is the team ready to leap?
“The mentality has to always be the same, we are Inter. I don’t think there are matches that are more or less difficult, the objective for Inter must be to keep the same mentality.”
