After Atalanta, Milan, Lazio and Torino all got 3 points, tomorrow’s game against Chievo Verona is a must win game to get back up to 3rd place. Luciano Spalletti held a pre-match press conference:
“It’s difficult to increase the pressure on those who are currently living in this situation. There’s never a result that allows you to be calm as there’s always a higher goal to achieve. It is completely normal for our opponents to win, just as it is normal for us to win the games we have ahead of us. Tomorrow’s game will be difficult and we need to prepare for it in the right way. We need to try and be better than our opponents and need all the qualities we have in our repertoire. ”
“Conte? I don’t know what you’re talking about. The newspapers have been writing for months that next year I will no longer be on this bench, I’m used to it. This does not distract us from what will be our attempt to achieve the maximum goals. In fact, I can show you the training, how the players are preparing. For us, the only way is the Champions League. In my head and the player’s there are no Spalletti or other coaches, but only Inter.”
“72 points our objective? What stimulates me is the match against Chievo. For what we saw during the league, all the teams have created problems. There are many teams that have placed themselves at the top of the league and have deservedly stolen points from last year’s big teams: there is more balance and in this context it is essential to reach fourth position. With how many points, little changes. Tomorrow evening there will be almost 60,000 people to help us achieve this goal.”
“Gagliardini instead of Brozovic? Roberto is as good of a player as his team-mates are, so I have to make some choices: when I chose him, I took away the playing time of others and vice versa.”
