Graziani: "Inter plays at a slow pace, you can't get the approach wrong in a derby"

The words of Bastoni about the attitude problem reignite the debate on the form of Inter. On La Domenica Sportiva, Graziani built his analysis starting precisely from that reference made by the Nerazzurri defender.

“You play a derby, it’s very important, you can’t get the approach wrong,” said the former striker. “Derbies are a match within the match. Inter must raise the tempo, be more aggressive, dictate the pace of the game.”

The match against Venezia served Graziani to highlight the contradictions of this moment: “Against Venezia it went really well, and if we look at the quality of the two teams, it’s clear that something isn’t adding up.” The analysis doesn’t spare Milan either: “I never take away credit from those who win and I give a lot to Milan because they approached the game well and were good in key moments, but Inter just isn’t there.”

Graziani then mentioned the episode with Fiorentina, who were come back against with two goals in stoppage time, as a further sign of a dangerous approach: “If they think they can always win by turning around lost games like with Fiorentina with two goals in stoppage time… Inter exposes itself too much, it’s a machine with a strong engine that runs at a slow pace.”
