The Nerazzurri Coach's press conference before the match with the Blucerchiati: "Everyone needs to get the best out of themselves for this match."


APPIANO GENTILE – Following the draw at the San Paolo on Saturday evening, it was already time for a press conference at the Suning Centre ahead of tomorrow’s matchday ten fixture in Serie A TIM against Sampdoria at 20:45 CEST at San Siro. “Sampdoria play good football, they’re without pressure, they have a good coach and they’re in a good position in the table so this will be a very tricky match," said Luciano Spalletti. "They’re a well-built team, Giampaolo makes all the teams he coaches strong and he really knows how to do the job of a coach. We have to do well and start again from zero in order to approach this match in the best way possible, with intensity and quality. We have to warm up mentally and then get our legs and muscles going, we need to be ready to evaluate every possible risk and everyone needs to get the most out of themselves.”

 It was inevitable that the conversation would turn to former Sampdoria player Skriniar. “Giampaolo spoke very well of him to me in the summer and showed that he’s a serious person as well as an excellent coach. Milan can still improve a lot, he knows how to do lots of different things. He really wanted to join Inter and he had the right attitude from the start, it’s easy to work with players like him.” 

Inter go into the match after a positive display at the San Paolo. “I liked a lot of things at Napoli but at the same time, you can always find something to improve. I’m satisfied because we went there to play and get on the ball even if we could have been more effective in certain situations. We can’t have doubts about the road to follow; we need to make steps forward in order to reach our objectives. We want to be more certain in ourselves. We can’t even let the comments made up us affect us. We know our strengths and weaknesses well; when you want to stop asking me about the Scudetto, it means that we can really compete for that objective. We need to continue a step at a time, we know where we want to end up.” 

Finally, there were some thoughts on the behavior of the team and individuals. “Since I’ve been here at Inter, I’ve found an excellent group. I don’t have anything I need to transmit to the players, they know on their own how to behave and they’re showing me that I can trust them. In this regard, everyone is their own coach. Is Miranda too confident in himself? This doesn’t bother me, he always knows what to do, he’s a player aware of his quality and this is also an important attitude for his teammates. He never gives up advantages to his teammates. Vecino? I see he’s always more in his element, when maybe he was a little bit timid at the start. I know what he’s worth, he needs to stay calm because he’s doing well at Inter and he’s showing it.”
