Incredible Stat Reveals Fundamental Importance Of Marcus Thuram For Inter Milan In Serie A | OneFootball

One incredible statistic shows just how important striker Marcus Thuram is for Inter Milan in Serie A this season.

FCInterNews note how the Nerazzurri’s percentage of losses with the Frenchman in the starting eleven is just 7.7%. That jumps to 37.5% when he is absent.

Marcus Thuram missed a few matches for Inter in the last couple weeks.

The 27-year-old picked up a muscle problem during Inter’s Champions League quarterfinal second leg against Bayern Munich last month.

Therefore, Thuram was out for Serie A matches against the likes of Bologna and Roma. Moreover, he also missed Inter’s Coppa Italia semifinal second leg against AC Milan.

Inter lost all three of those matches.

Those defeats in the league have seen the Nerazzurri fall behind Napoli at the top of the table, right at the decisive moment in the run-in of the season.

Moreover, Inter did not score in any of those matches. Their attack lacked a certain spark with Thuram out.

And the statistics bear out just how much Inter need Marcus Thuram in the starting eleven.

After those two matches without the Frenchman, the Nerazzurri made it a loss percentage of 37.5% without him.

On the other hand, Inter have lost just 7.7% of matches in which Thuram has started.

The Frenchman is undoubtedly a player who makes Inter’s attack tick in Serie A. Moreover, he also tends to push opposition teams back with the threat of his pace and finishing in behind.,

Therefore, even when Inter haven’t won matches with Thuram starting, they have at least typically managed to salvage a draw.

The fact that Thuram is set to get a rest against Hellas Verona today could therefore be a worry.,
