Inter’s Portuguese full-back Joao Cancelo spoke to Inter TV after the Nerazzurri were held to a 0-0 draw by Lazio. The former Valencia player highlighted how he is currently molding himself to the Serie A and discussed the disappointing draw at home against the Biancocelesti.
“We are a great team and we want to fight for a place in the Champions League. I am happy with my performance but the most important thing is the result which will affect everyone and everything” Cancelo began.
“Lazio is a very strong team and I think a draw is a fair result. We are focused and we want to achieve our target. Serie A is perhaps the most difficult league in Europe. I always aim to improve more and more with every passing day. I have great teammates who always help me and I also always try to learn new things with a great desire.”
skriniar and him remind me a lot about a pure talent and pure ‘no fear’. i’m just afraid the ‘virus’ will contaminate them just like the others. it’s like they will be stuck with their own basis skills, and no more steps forward exploring new skills or tactics (stay in their comfort zone), while all of our opponents always learn and try to stop us–> (just look at perisic and candreva! the other teams have already known how to stop them!)–>if happen so, basically we will be doomed again
He’s starting to get the hang of Serie A and his talent is obvious. He’s fast as hell and can dribble his way past an opponent, he can defend and he can cross. He only has to improve the marking a little.
I hope he secures the starting spot. D’Ambrosio is “safe” but doesn’t offer that much going forward. Once Cancelo improves his marking he will be an incredible asset. I would personally give D’Ambrosio another shot on the left side and play them both.
I mean…why not just play cancelo on the left…dam seems to favor the right side more whereas cancelo is more versatile
Cancelo did play a good game today. Technical good and made some good moves going forward. He has the guts and quality to challenge the Lazio defence. My only concern is that he is not that strong
