Cristi Chivu, statements before the debut in the Champions League: “I feel nothing special”
“I do not feel anything special. For me it is important that Inter plays the first match in the Champions League, to start well, to have a good performance and to win.
I told you to look at the first 3 matches, the efforts to return the match with Juventus and the quality shown on the field. We are not far from where we should be. Of course, you are judged on the basis of the result, no one looks at the game. This is normal and should be accepted, but we should not lose our self -confidence.
I don't change Sommer because people want it. These are the principles that I guide. We all make mistakes. I do not change because of physical or mental errors, but because of a behavior, when you do not have the correct attitude towards the teammate, club and what the life of the locker room means.
Sommer offers many of these things and will continue to offer them. We don't have to show it to your finger. I can't do this in my way. Will remain in the gate. I have respect for him.
Lautaro Martinez did not train today because of a small problem. We will see tomorrow if he will be able to play, “said Cristi Chivu, the coach of Inter, according to Tuttomercatoweb.com.
