It’s time for Inter-Lecce this evening at San Siro for the match that counts as the rescheduled sixteenth round of Serie A. Speaking before the match at the Meazza, the Nerazzurri president Giuseppe Marotta spoke to Dazn microphones. These were his words:
NO TRAINING CAMP – “We are facing an innovative concept in the world of football, I believe that the coach more than anyone else is aware of what needs to be done. He gave a day off, but it doesn’t surprise me. If he decided so, it’s right that he did.”
TRANSFER MARKET – “The news of the day is that Dumfries is recovering faster than expected, let’s not forget that we missed him in recent Sundays and I hope he will soon be available again. It’s not easy to find this type of profile that is up to Inter’s standards. Dumfries in mid-February? I don’t want to make any statements out of respect for the medical staff, but we are optimistic.”
HEAD-TO-HEADS – “What’s missing? I think it’s a statistical consideration, the performances have always been good. Then it’s clear that this year we made some changes to the squad, the defensive unit has been rejuvenated. Clearly the experience is not yet at the highest level, but it’s part of the growth process and Chivu knows it. I have noticed individual growth from the start of the season to today, which bodes well.”
CONTE’S WORDS – “No comment, everyone is free to express their own thoughts. We are in an interlocutory phase with many points still available, now the smaller teams are starting to bother the big ones, you can see a league table situation that wasn’t there at the start of the season.”
