The seventh 1-0-win for the season is a fact after beating Torino away and Inter stay on top of the league. Roberto Mancini’s first comments to Sky were about Valentino Rossi.
“Valentino? It was not an easy thing to come back, but he remains the number one without a doubt. We have a good group, they work hard and well and we are still growing. We are very young, even though some seem to forget that. We need to develop under several aspects. I would have signed off to be in this position at this point. All our players have quality and possibilities to play, it seems unfair to me to polemicize when someone stays out of the starting eleven. They are all good and deserve to play. Kondogbia? He can be very useful, he made us win a very difficult game against a team which is always hard to beat. I think the other teams have more to fight for the scudetto compared to us. We need a bit more time than them. The Inter of the past was a very solid group of 13-14 players, we are still building. All the players have qualities, but the fact that we are ahead means that we are doing something right. We don’t concede goals because the team works in unison, not due to a specific position.”
Lastly a brief comment about the pending international break.
“It was important to go to the break while in the lead, the break comes in a good time. The important thing is that the players return fit and healthy to be able to continue where we left off.”
