New Inter midfielder Felipe Melo has been speaking to Inter Channel following last night’s 1-0 Derby win against Milan.
It was a dream debut for the Brazilian in the Inter shirt as he helped Inter to win one of the biggest games of the year.
“I’m happy and I thank God for this victory, we’ve won an important game. If you want to wear this shirt you need to fight for it. I’m here to help Inter become great again. So far, so good.”
How does the Milan Derby compare to those you have played in?
“A derby like that is more difficult than the ones I played in in Turkey.”
How are you settling in?
“I wasn’t here for pre season training and I started 25 days after the others. I’m not 100% yet. It was a very tactical match today and very technical too. That’s what Italian football is all about.”
Your relationship with Roberto Mancini and Italian football?
“It’s really important to have the coach’s confidence but I don’t feel I have to prove myself to Serie A. I’m here to do my bit.”
