Hernan Jorge Crespo, the former Inter striker was interviewed by SkySport and gave his opinion on Mauro Icardi:
“He should adapt himself to his teammates to be functional for the team. Independently of who they are he needs to strive for this. Should Palacio play he needs to adapt to him, the same goes for Jovetic or Ljajic. I did this when I played, if Cafu played I adapted myself, if Maicon played I did as well.”

I like Crespo, but did he really just compare Icardi playing with Palacio, Jovetic, or Ljajic to himself playing with the two best right backs of their time?
yes quite strange – why didn’t he talk about playing with Ibra or Cruz ?
He’s just making a point. And he is rigth. Worldclass strikers should read their teammates, which Icardi properly will do very well some day.
He cant, never…
