Javier Zanetti says Joao Miranda is Inter’s ‘figurehead’ and urges the team to ‘continue in the vein’.
The Nerazzurri currently sit at the summit of Serie A after 15 rounds and former icon Zanetti has been encouraged by what he has seen.
The Argentine, who is now vice-President of the San Siro giants, praised the club’s new defensive partnership.
"The reaction against Genoa was crucial, now we have to continue in this vein,” he told Inter’s official website.
“Winning is always important, but we've got a tough match coming up. Nevertheless, Roberto Mancini and his players will approach it in the right way.
"If I have to pick one, I'd say Miranda is the figurehead of the side. He and Jeison Murillo are doing an excellent job together.
“However, we shouldn't forget Andrea Ranocchia and Juan Jesus, who have picked up fewer minutes this season but have always delivered when called upon.
"The most important thing this year is that Inter have a number of different options."
