Stramaccioni praises Inter and Roma after the first matchday

Andrea Stramaccioni commented in the Gazzetta dello Sport on the performances of the first day of the championship, highlighting the performances of Inter and Roma, both victorious with four goals scored.

Asked about possible changes in the hierarchy for the title race compared to the eve, the coach emphasized that it is still too early for definitive judgments, considering that the transfer market and squads still need to be completed. However, he highlighted the very convincing start of the two teams, characterized by clear and well-defined playing ideas.

The team led by Chivu, according to Stramaccioni, appears solid and has strengthened all departments, including the attack where no new signings have arrived. He noted the growth of Esposito in personality and awareness, increasingly a protagonist in the movements on which Inter has worked intensely, with the forwards encouraged to move vertically to make the most of his characteristics.

The coach also emphasized the quality in building up play, which can rely on defenders like Akanji, Bastoni and Stones, all very skilled at starting the action from the back. A rare characteristic in the Serie A landscape, he added, while waiting to see Curtis Jones and Spence in action.
