Stefano Pioli spoke in the conference room after Inter’s 2-1 defeat at the hands of Sampdoria at San Siro. Here is what the Nerazzurri boss had to say.
The fact that we see those in front and those nearby who do not give up, can cause anxiety?
“I think mentally we always look at ourselves without looking at others, otherwise it would be heavier. Tonight we knew we had a great opportunity, we played well for 50 minutes and then we lost it after the game was tied, when individuals reacted by ceasing to play as a team.”
This team is likely to be dependent Gagliardini? Because out Perisic?
“Gagliardini DEA balance, but in its place came Kondogbia with the same characteristics. It has not been a single to determine the change in attitude, mentally we were wrong reaction, we innerovsiti when there was time to recover. Perisic had an adductor strain and I decided to change it to avoid the risk. ”
In the second half their seemed to be a different approach from Inter.
“The game was balanced, we started well in the first half. Then we made a serious neglect on the corner despite being well placed. There, the match changed and it was our mistake not remain lucid, it was necessary to continue to build as in first half.”
“The attackers had to wait because they lacked the right support. The game we played with eleven and we lost with eleven.
“I still believe it’s a mistake to look away from ourselves. Tonight we played as a team only for 50 minutes. We know that the ranking is not what we want but we have eight games to fight back and show who we are, trying to finish with better rankings. ”
Was Gabigol unhappy about being left out again?
“I think not dropped players are not happy, neither are those even taken the field. I’ll talk to everyone.”

This time I couldn’t watch the game 🙁 but I can’t blame him, Brozo was a disaster conceding a Penalty and Icardi missed such a clear chance…. if he were Mancio we wouldn’t be in the position that we are right now- Sadly CL is really far far away—
This guy almost always fail when the pressure is on him. Even with Lazio in Cl playoff he was sent home packing with 3-1 aggregate against leverkusen and both of the games was terrible. He have some potential with tactics but most of the time big occasions get to him.
I agree, he just doesn’t seem like a coach for big clubs.. He lost every derby so far and now failed again against Torino and Samp when we could make a push for CL. There were many chances to get back into the fight for CL but we failed at every one of them. And now even Lazio and Atalanta are getting away and Milan is only one point behind us.
Pioli got some good results when we had already written off this season but when shit got real, he failed. The team failed. Like many times in past 6 years. I just don’t think that Pioli can change our loser mentality into a winning one.
I really like sunning project for not only wanting worldclass players but also worldclass manager. I dont remember any worldclass manager after Mou and most of the time if you want to create strong project then the manager should be involved and say no more to immature managers like stramochini or mazzari . Go straight for Simmone or if possible conte will work too.
Yep, Simeone or Conte would be a dream. But I think they will be unavailable this summer.
Ye but if you always show the stupidity as always you did then there will be no hope for this inter
The subs that came on yesterday did nothing to influence the game, maybe you should have given Gabigol a chance.
Eder did well bro..
Yes, and you mister have 8 games to prove you are worth for a big club. If we end up behind Milan and atalanta comes end of March you should pack your staff.
march already ended though…
🙂 silly me
