San Siro is practically deserted, as the ultras in the Curva Nord have only left a huge banner in their place: ‘Four defeats from five games. This is what you deserve for your embarrassing efforts… Shame on you.’
“It’s fair, because we know that we all need to give something more,” Pioli told Sky Sport Italia.
“This is an opportunity to prove we are competitive. I want a response from everyone, because we have what it takes to be a great team.”
There were reports Inter would test a three-man defence this evening.
“The issue is to be balanced and efficient. We are working to improve.”
Does Pioli expect reinforcements in the January transfer market?
“This is not the time to think about the market. We must have our minds on the match.”
The Nerazzurri are already eliminated from the Europa League in the group phase after losing four of their five games so far.
