Simone Inzaghi feels that Inter Milan’s entire squad will need to help out if the team is to make it through the next three weeks.
The Nerazzurri coach spoke to InterTV, via FCInterNews, ahead of tomorrow evening’s Serie A clash with Roma.
Tomorrow evening, Inter are back in action in Serie A after an international break where they’ve been away.
The Nerazzurri travel to the Italian capital to take on Roma.
And that will only be the first game of many for Inter to navigate before the next international break.
Inter’s Serie A and Champions League campaigns are now in full swing,
And by the eleventh of next month the Nerazzurri will have taken on Arsenal in the Champions League as well as Juventus and Napoli – arguably their two main title rivals.
Meanwhile, there are also matches against the likes of Young Boys, Venezia, and Empoli on the way. Inter will hardly want to understimate those either.
Simone Inzaghi: “Whole Inter Squad Will Have To Help Out In Next Twenty Days”
Inter coach Inzaghi stressed that “We know we’re facing seven matches in twenty days.”
“We’ll all have to do well,” the Nerazzurri coach said.
“Right now my only thought is preparing for the match against Roma at our best.”
“But we had one match fewer before the last break, and we know that we’ll have to give even more now,” Inzaghi said.
“We’ll try and draw from the whole squad,” the Inter coach said.
“And we know that all of these guys try to give me and my staff a hard decision every day,” Inzaghi made clear.
Regarding the return from the break, Inzaghi said that “The international break shouldn’t affect us.”
“We know that we got three straight wins before the break,” he continued.
“We have to keep on going on our journey.”
Inzaghi said that “The guys have looked good when they’ve come back.”
“There have however been a couple physical problems.”
“But we’ve worked together over the last 2-3 days, knowing that we’re coming back in a very difficult match.”
“We know the kind of team we’re up against,” Inzaghi said. “We’ve faced Juric many times in recent seasons.”
“He’s bringing his philosophy yo Roma,” the Inter coach said of former Torino and Hellas Verona coach Juric.
“We have to be ready to play a top match in both phases of play. We need a top Inter performance.”
Meanwhile, Inzaghi said that Inter’s summer signings have “fit in well.”
“Thanks to the help from the players who were already here.”
“I’m satisfied with them,” the Nerazzurri coach said. “Some have played more, others less. But my goal is to get them all to play.”
And Inzaghi said that striker Marcus Thuram is “doing just as well as last season.”
“His style of play hasn’t changed. We’re working on small adjustments to his game.”
“The important thing is that he keeps working the way he has over the past year and a half,” Inzaghi said of Thuram.
