Inter’s engine stopped after the engines of Ivan Perisic and Antonio Candreva stopped. They gave signs of a drop in performance but as the weeks have past by, they’ve only gotten worse and worse.
Meaning the Nerazzurri’s attack went dry and provided barely any service for Icardi, also considering the lack of a dedicated trequartista. As a consequence there’s been a massive dip in results, sending Inter from a potential title fight to a mere Champions League qualification battle.
Spalletti is expected to stick with his current wingers but Gazzetta dello Sport, highlights the recent form of Rafinha and Eder, allowing Inter to rotate if need be.
Eder scored Inter’s only goal in a 1-1 result against Crotone, while Rafinha came on as a sub for 30 minutes and impressed everyone with his passion and technical ability. Rafinha has a serious chance of breaking into the first team on a more than regular basis, while Eder is a striker and it remains to be seen how effective he is on the wings, unless Spalletti considers changing formation with a striker partnership.
