Marcus Thuram was also present this afternoon at the press conference alongside Simone Inzaghi. Tomorrow evening the seventh round of the Champions League will be played between Sparta Prague and Inter in a tricky away game for the Nerazzurri. The French striker is expected to start from the first minute alongside Lautaro Martinez, something that has never happened in the first six rounds of this championship phase.
Here are the words spoken by Thuram in the conference on Champions and Serie A:
CHAMPIONS GOAL AVERAGE – For me there is not much difference, the three points always count. In the Champions League we only didn’t get points against Leverkusen, otherwise we won four matches. Whether the result is 1-0 or 3-0 does not matter, what counts is only the victory.
NAPOLI WITHOUT CUPS – Last year we won the Serie A playing the Champions League, I don’t think it’s an excuse. What counts and really makes the difference is the mental freshness we bring to the championship field to try to win every game.
THU-LA – “Goal with Lautaro? I’m happy when Lautaro scores and he’s happy when I manage to score. But what counts is winning the games, much more than scoring together.
NAPOLI LEADER – Personally it does not change anything for me, we have to try to win every game. It doesn’t change whether you are ahead or behind in the standings.
GROUP – I think the secret of Inter is having 24-25 players who love to train, play and spend time together. We are real friends and each of us is willing to make great efforts for each other.
LAUTARO – “Is he more calm? Lautaro has never been nervous, he’s our captain and he’s been leading Inter on and off the field since the start of the season. He’s a leader for us. It’s great for him to score, but nothing has changed from before: he has never been nervous for this reason.
