During his speech with the press on the sidelines of the presentation of the Nils Liedholm Prize, the president of Inter Beppe Marotta he also spoke about the Nerazzurri’s current moment, also responding on the possibility that the team chooses the Champions League rather than the championship:
Is Inter not at last year’s level?
“Our performances in the Champions League seem very respectable to me. In the championship we are one point from the top. Even last year we were hunters and Juventus were the hare, now Napoli are ahead. What has changed compared to last year it’s that there are a small group of teams that deservedly occupy the top positions. It’s all still a long way off, there are many games and many points and so for now it’s essential to stick to the top. Then January and February will be the decisive months “.
Who impressed you the most?
“If I have to analyze the extraordinary performances, certainly Atalanta, Fiorentina and Lazio. It’s been a long time since they deservedly reached these levels.”
On a subconscious level, is the team focusing more on the Champions League than on the championship?
“I believe that a great team must respond to every competition, there is no distinction between the championship and the Champions League. We want to be protagonists all the way, then it will also depend on the opponents and what we manage to demonstrate.”
