Brozovic, De Vrij and Lukaku 'vote' for Sensi recovery

Sensi and Brozovic – One hundred sixty-seven: these are the balls that Sensi and Brozovic exchanged in seven league games. It's a monstrous average: almost 24 passes per game, in both directions. To say that the same language speaks in the field is even reductive. Instead, underline how the continuous dialogue between the two was one of the winning weapons of Inter di Conte until October, is never wrong. Sensi is still unbeaten in the Serie A with Inter, until he proved otherwise, because in the match against Juve he left the field on 1-1. The double play key allowed Conte to encrypt Inter's game.

Sensi and De Vrij – He has seen himself several times in the last games – Reggio Emilia, Dortmund at San Siro, Bologna, Verona – the Dutch become a second director. Need even before that choice: with Brozovic marked and evidently lower quality in the middle of the field, Conte entrusted De Vrij with the task of directly triggering the attackers. In this sense, Lukaku's goal at Sassuolo was exemplary. Sensi's return "keeps" the Dutchman as a central defender. It being understood that the solution can always be implemented.

Sensi and Lukaku – Watch out for another datum: no other attacker Sensi has served more balls (16), he has received no more from any other (12). It is clear that the Belgian needs men capable of "stretching out" the field. We have seen little or nothing, so far in Inter, the true face of the Belgian. Certainly not in terms of construction, but in terms of characteristics. Lukaku expresses himself best in the open field, with his face to the door. Sensi knows how to transmit the ball at speed. And, perhaps a unique feature in the Inter squad, he knows how to handle the accelerator with care: he knows how to alternate possession – Inter first in Serie A – in vertical play.
