Gian Piero Gasperini’s pre-match press conference ahead of the game Inter-Atalanta took place on Friday 10th January, valid as 2019-2020 Serie A TIM Matchday 19.

Here below the statements from the Nerazzurri coach:

“Inter aim to win the league, it’s Conte’s and the team’s merit. It’s not something temporary after 18 games: they gained credibility and will fight vs Juve until the end.”

“We have got 34 points, we can fight for Europe. We want to end the first half of the season well, facing the top of the league on their ground.”

“It’s a game that counts for our credibility, besides the table, to see how close or far we are from them.”

“Atalanta and Inter are very different, it’s difficult to make comparisons. There are 11 points between us, we must be satisfied with our situation. Anything can happen in one-off games.”

“Our target is to measure ourselves against Inter as well in the best possible way.”

“We will play the match thinking about our table, to defend our position and possibly improve.”

“Tomorrow’s difficulty level is very high because Inter are strong.”

“It’s important to handle their force of impact in these kinds of matches: their two forwards are doing well.”

On the ground:

“At the San Siro we have played three UCL matches this season, we have some good memories.”
