Reflecting on the difference between dreams and concrete goals, for a club like Inter and for a coach like Chivu: this is the starting point of the analysis by Bonan, journalist for Sky Sport, who spoke about the match against Bruges in the Champions League and the prospects for the Nerazzurri’s season.

«The distinction between dream and goals is very appropriate for a club like Inter, which is ambitious, and for a practical man like Chivu. His pragmatism is now certified by the fact that he has managed to win while preserving the ideas of those who preceded him and possibly improving them, without overturning everything and without thinking he has to do it all himself», emphasized the host of the satellite channel.

According to Bonan, the team has been managed intelligently: «He has been excellent in taking care of a team that is, in fact, well built and makes it play in a more offensive and daring way and we also hope, for Inter fans, in a way that is more suitable for the international stage and to achieve the minimum goal of reaching the top eight in the CL, an ambitious goal but I believe it is the main objective for Chivu’s Inter this year». The journalist then drew a comparison with last season: «Last year the Nerazzurri team was certainly aiming for the Scudetto, this year’s team aims to go as far as possible in the Champions League».

On Inter’s positioning compared to other Italian teams in Europe, Bonan has no doubts: he considers it the strongest and best mentally prepared team, even compared to Roma, which he still judges to be of a high level. For this reason, he considers Inter the favorite in comparison with the other Italian teams involved in the competition. On the defeat against Real, the journalist observed that the match was played well and that the negative result was the result of some individual errors.
