Juan Jesus was the last Inter player to be interviewed by Inter Channel:
“The result is not the right one, we gave our all. At the end of the day we got closer to Fiorentina and that is good. I lost 5kgs with Cuadrado”, ´he says with a laugh. Then goes on; “I train everyday with Biabiany so this helps me catch the ones that are faster. The coach told us all week not to concede any space for Cuadrado. As a fullback I try to grow game after game, I try to help the team. There is rivalry with Telles for the place as a starter and that is good. The group is great and this is how you create a great team. If San Siro was always like this it would be fantastic, we need the fans.”

He impressed me today. Was not very involved with the attack but the way he (with Perisic help) shut down Cuadrado was impressive seeing he’s been out of the first team for a while. His physical presence is underrate as he can use his strength to intimidate an attacker like Cuadrado and deposition him whereas Telles is able to be bodied and doesn’t add much physically or in the air. Obviously they are 2 different styles of players but I really like how JJ5 has matured the past year.
JJ has really changed from a year ago – he was so bad at CB
he always was bad as a CB
Yes… That’s what I said
He STILL is bad as a CB but as a left back he is usefull – and he WANTS to be useful and to learn a new role (not like Kova, hint hint 🙂 ).
