Examining the Italian sports front pages one day after Inter Milan loses to a side recently promoted from Serie B can be a fascinating experience. The phrases ‘Sfascio’ (Collapse), ‘Gasperini Sinks’ and ‘Super Novara!’ are cluttered all over the place. These Italians seem to love the word ‘Super‘ a lot, eh, SuperPippo?
Of course, naturally, Inter’s coach Gasperini is in the hot seat for this – uh, GASP worthy – performance. Inter have not won away in their last five games and their 3-1 loss to Novara and current 17th place in the Serie A table has confirmed that perhaps some reshuffling needs to take place. Moratti, sit up and Aiutarli! (help them).
“We played really badly. But I believe in what I am doing, which has given me a lot of happiness before this, it is a difficult period we are going through, but I must come out of this stronger and more resolute. We have to be a bit more humble, when we tried to go on the offensive we found ourselves in trouble.” – Gasperini
