New Inter coach Roberto Mancini took just a single training session to begin work with a back four. During the practice Nagatomo Vidic (alternating with Androlli), Juan Jesus and Dodo took the field. Juan Jesus in fact will be the deputy in the left back area also, pushing Nagatomo over to the right. This brings about the hypothesis that the defence for the derby will either be Nagatomo, Vidic, Ranocchia & Juan Jesus or Nagatomo, Ranocchia, Juan Jesus, Dodo. Could Vidic be the defender at risk? A small backstory is that Galatasaray (With Mancini in charge) were very interested in Vidic during the January mercato, especially after Ranocchia became unavailable late in the window.
