Il Giornale believe that Inter proved to still harvest some of the problems that last year’s side had in their disappointing 1-1 draw against Slavia Prague in the opening round of the Champions League group stage.

“Everything has changed compared to last season, yet it still seems like Inter are the exact same. Not so much in terms of results, which in any case there has been a real difference, but the same “I could but I don’t want to” attitude remains,” the report from the Milan based news outlet explains.

“It was an ugly and almost resounding backwards step given the level of the opponent, which risks jeopardising their progression in the Champions League, as the other two, Barcelona and Borussia Dortmund, are on a completely different level.”
