“I went through a very rough time and I was also disappointed at not being able to help my teammates. It’s all in the past now,” the Slovenia international told Inter TV.
The Orobici have rediscovered their form of late with three consecutive victories.
“Atalanta had played quite well at the start of the season too, but we were unable to turn our chances into goals. Now we want to continue this positive streak.
“Both Atalanta and Inter are strong teams, we know full well who we are up against. I hope the crowd can push us on to victory.”
