In an interview with Inter Channel where he discussed where he was when he got the news he’d be the new coach and how he built up his backroom, Inter boss Stefano Pioli also looked ahead to 2017: “I’m in no doubt whatsoever that this team has plenty of room for improvement and I also think the transfer window can help us sort out a couple of gaps. If we keep putting in the hard work day in day out as we have been doing, maintaining a focused, professional attitude, we’ll be able to compete with the best. Wins breed confidence and January will be a big month for us. We’ll go to Marbella to spend some time together oiling the wheels. We’ve got some catching up to do and we need to get a move on if we want to climb the table. Only if we really believe can we put absolutely everything into it on the pitch.Every match is an opportunity for us. We can beat anyone on our day and if we show the right mentality we can go a long way. I wish the fans all the best for 2017 and hope it’s a year of happiness and success.”
