“You don’t need a stadium to make you feel like a champion. A real champion is the one who always makes his mark in every situation.”

Inter are joint top of the Serie A table with Juventus and Napoli, who both had Champions League defeats this week.

“Not being in Europe can be an advantage or an extra difficulty, because the players who are left out want to prove what they can do.

“Midweek games are needed in my role, even if in the long-run they tend to tire players out.”
