Chivu on Pavard and Luis Henrique: important players

Cristian Chivu, coach of Inter, made some statements to Sky Sport microphones before the kick-off of the match against Cagliari. He analyzed the challenge and commented on the lineup choices, with particular attention to the players starting from the first minute.

“We know it’s never easy here, Cagliari is a team in good shape, coming off a win in Parma, and is well coached. We know it won’t be easy,” he began, highlighting the difficulty of the trip to Sardinia.

On the choices of Pavard and Luis Henrique from the first minute, Chivu was clear: “They don’t need anything, they are important players, who are part of this squad, and over the years have shown the contribution they can make to the team, so today they start from the beginning.”

He then spoke about Marcus Thuram: “When will Thuram be at 100%? I can’t say because I don’t know. He needs minutes, and today he’ll get them.” Finally, on Jones: “He’s had 4 training sessions with us, he’s shown he’s a player of a certain quality. I hope I can get him on the pitch today.”
