Crespo: “Lukaku only power, Lautaro complete. I see myself in him in his acrobatic gestures”

Where can Inter go this season? He replies Hernan Crespo: “I say that it is a candidate to win the scudetto and fight to reach the final of the Champions League”, the words of the former Nerazzurri striker, who spoke to the notebooks of La Gazzetta dello Sport: “Lautaro guarantees the goals, Thuram is his ideal partner, the game that my friend Simone Inzaghi proposes is perfect due to the characteristics of the elements available. Inter, in Italy, is by far the most complete and more experienced.”

Napoli, however, is ahead.
“It’s still early, the calculations will be made in the spring when the great sprint will take place. Now Napoli have an advantage because they don’t have international commitments, but I think that Inter will be able to find the balance in managing the players and thus will have the opportunity to lengthen”.

Is there anyone from the past who Lautaro resembles?
“I think he’s a mix of some Argentinians. In the box he’s as deadly as Aguero. In acrobatics I see myself in him, even if he needs to improve with his backheels… He’s as strong with his head as Batistuta, even if he doesn’t have the same power. And then he’s quick, when he starts on the counterattack, and you don’t take the ball away from him… Ask a defender if he prefers to mark Lautaro or Lukaku, and we’ll hear the answer…”.

In your opinion, what is it?
“It’s much more difficult to stop Lautaro, because he has more quality. Lukaku relies only on power, Lautaro is definitely more complete.”
