Going back from the defeat against Tottenham to get to the Serie A game: this is Inter's objective, as they'll face a hurt Roma that could be dangerous because of that special aspect, as said Spalletti in his pregame press conference: "These are teams that can win any game. We're expecting a very difficult game, also because the league table doesn't say how good they are and have been in the past. Last season they made it to the third spot in Serie A and the semifinals in Champions League".

"It's exciting to be returning to a city where I lived and worked, a place where I have strong ties. We're going into the match to give it a real go. Perisic? His were normal words. From how I know him, I think he's fine at Inter. He's happy about his role in the team".

From Perisic to Lautaro Martinez, Spalletti explains the Toro's situation after the declarations that were made on social media: "I only know Lautaro in his family, so I talk to him. The important things is he's aware that by coming like that, his father looks like attacking me and Inter, so he creates problems for his son. There are evaluations to do, to become a top player you have to handle yourself but also the people around you, as it's part of your image. Important European clubs pay attention to the way they handle these situations. Lautaro doesn't need protection so everything's all set, I don't overreact to these things but it's clear you need to talk about some things in a group".

"Radja Nainggolan has missed a bit of preparation due to an injury. It's a shame because he knows that he still hasn't fully contributed what he can to his new teammates. His levels of potential and character are the same as always".

"A team like Tottenham or Roma, and so does Inter, has such an important group it's not right to talk about the injury situation. These teams don't have problems if they have at least 13 players at their disposal, they can put a lineup up to win games. Roma is a good team, they'll use other players. The gap with Roma? We're putting pressure on ourselves because we're not satisfied. We always want to go further. In these leagues, it's too early to say that a match is decisive. You don't need to make calculations because there are always pitfalls. Vrsaljko feels good, he is available".
