“The sensations going into this derby are wonderful,” said the Coach in his Press conference.
“We are ready to play the biggest game of the season. We know how much our fans care about this and we want to decide our own destiny, so to do that, we must go in aware of our capabilities.”
The big news is the return of top scorer Icardi, who has been out for four Serie A games, during which the Nerazzurri picked up two wins and a draw.
“Icardi is not just ready, he’s more than ready. The derby brings special sensations to those who are strong. The points say we are ahead of Milan and in order to earn those points, we must’ve put in strong performances. The most difficult thing will be to play and take the game to them with our qualities.
“I am not worried by Milan, I only want to make sure my own players know what to do. Milan have a lot of quality at their disposal, but I am convinced Inter have just as much.
“What I want to see tomorrow is the courage to make important decisions and determined looks on their faces. This game is our future.
“Winning the Derby di Milano for us means winning a game that writes a page in the history books of the club. It’s one of the most wonderful fixtures that remains in the memory and brings enthusiasm.
“If we want to qualify for the Champions League, there are no more moments that we can postpone. It is the time to take responsibility. We have to take our future into our own hands. The period of ups and downs, which everyone goes through, is no longer allowed.”
