Christian Eriksen said ‘Scudetto’ was one of the first words he learned at Inter and revealed the ‘understanding’ between him and coach Antonio Conte has improved.
The Denmark international had a difficult start in Milan but has gradually settled in at the Nerazzurri and said his Italian is getting better.
“It’s going alright with the Italian,” Eriksen told DAZN. “Not very, but good.
“Scudetto was one of the first words I learned, but we can only dream of it until we win it.”

“Scudetto was one of the first words I learned, but we can only dream of it until we win it.”
The former Tottenham Hotspur star said he knows coach Antonio Conte ‘better’ after more than a year at Pinetina and spoke about his change of position on the pitch.
“I don’t know if it’s a new Eriksen or the old one who plays a little more,” he said. “In the current system I play a little lower, so I’m more involved in defensive situations.
“I have to be ready for tackles or to get the ball back. Obviously, I usually played more advanced and I had to adapt.
“I gradually learned and now I know very well how I have to play. I’ve been here for a year now and every day we do what the coach asks of us.
“Conte and I had to get to know each other. Now, he knows me, and I know him better. This makes it easier to understand how to play certain matches.
“You can see that it’s different than before, when [Marcelo] Brozovic was a bit lonely. It’s up to the coach to decide our positions.
“If you see, we don’t play like that in all games. It also depends on the opponent and how we can hurt them."
