Zanetti, who racked up 615 appearances for Inter over 19 years, expressed his belief that Mancini is the right man to take the club back to the summit of Serie A.
“There is a great understanding with the Coach and this is very important,” the 41-year-old said to Gazzetta dello Sport.
“We all believe in the work Roberto is doing. It isn’t easy but we must all make a big effort, even us directors, to create a competitive group that will soon return to compete with the others at the top.”
Zanetti used the example of his difficult early seasons as a player at San Siro to suggest the best path forward for the squad.
“When we weren’t winning early on, it wasn’t easy at all. But I learned that you can only bounce back by accepting defeats and afterwards you can always improve and develop.”
“This has been a very difficult season. I hope that in these final eight matches we can give the best possible account of ourselves.“
