December 5, 2019

MILAN – "Surely it is a game of the highest level of difficulty because of the opponent we are going to face. They have enthusiasm and confidence, we face a team that is well. We have to think about ourselves. We know there will be pain and we will have to be ready to hold up strike and be as precise as possible in the implementation phase ": Inter coach Antonio Conte said on the eve of the match against Roma at San Siro. "We need to be very careful, they have created an important team with players who have given great answers and Fonseca – adds Conte – immediately adapted to the championship. I congratulate them"."There is room for improvement in Inter, I think that since we started there have been situations that have led us to push the car very hard, but we know that we must always do it if we want to aim to annoy and stay in the upper part of the ranking "said Conte speaking of the possible margins for improvement of his team. "We have to get to the Christmas break in the best possible way. Needless to say, we need to make a virtue of necessity. After the break we can catch our breath, catch up on a lot of players and breathe a sigh of relief. Let us stay focused and go from game to game. We really have to grit our teeth and cross our fingers, "said Conte, speaking of the accident that complicates the Inter team's plans. "We are facing it in the right way. We see the glass half full because in the moment of difficulty many players have become more responsible. We must face it as we are doing: chest out. There is no time to cry on, to camp situations and hide".
Conte also returned to his "no" in Rome at summer: "With Francesco Totti there is a long-standing friendship. He explained the situation to me and told me about the possibility Rome. I made some very calm evaluations and I have "I thought it wasn't the right time. At that moment, however, Inter wasn't there. There were no other teams, I made my evaluations and I decided to decline the proposal in a very respectful way. I know it's a huge square." , but it was not the time ".A Conte is also asked about the great season of Nainggolan at Cagliari: "In many situations you must always do a deep analysis and understand where you can do better, how and if there is something that should be reviewed. I had no doubt that he did well in Cagliari but it is also right that he wonders why he is not at Inter and is at Cagliari, I have great affection for Radja and he knows it very well.In my first year at Chelsea he was at the top of the list of choices for the I think that for him the choice to go to Cagliari was the best ".
