In today’s paper edition of the newspaper, Milano-based Gazzetta dello Sports reports on a particularly interesting statistic regarding how certain managers perform after European games, highlighting that Spalletti is considered a specialist in these situations.
“Where many other coaches, fail, Spalletti seems to excel. In the 89 matches he’s had after European football in his career (between Udinese, Roma, and Zenit), he has come out with a positive result of 52 wins and only 13 losses. Luciano Spalletti has the experience required by redefining the art of preparing a team and knows how to get the best out of his team after playing European football.”
This fact is not to be underestimated as it will come into play due to the very busy season that Inter will have. Rotation and rest will be key and it is all up to Spalletti to determine how to utilize his players and get the best out of each and every one of them without risking too much.
