In light of the numerous injuries that have hit Inter, especially on the wings, Simone Inzaghi has been called in recent days to find concrete alternative solutions. The Nerazzurri coach, who has already tested a new 4-4-2 in the last half hour of the game against Lazio in the Coppa Italia, has also reinvented roles of two particular players in recent sessions at Appiano Gentile.
As admitted this afternoon in a press conference, the coach has tried out both Frattesi and Correa as fullbacks, in order to have alternatives to use during the game. At the moment, in fact, the only two regular wingers available are Dumfries and Dimarco, with the latter visibly tired and not at his best physically.
This is Inzaghi’s explanation: Today as fullbacks I tried Correa on one side and Frattesi on the other side because at this moment we have needs, then, as I said the other night, I can have one between Pavard and Bisseck who can play that role, or I can change the system. This is because in three and a half years I have never had three injuries out of five in the same role because Carlos Augusto is very important for us as he can be the third or the fifth and he is also unavailable.
