Lele Adani Argues “Inter Milan Have 22 Starters, Rotation Doesn’t Exist” | OneFootball

Former Inter Milan defender Lele Adani insists the Nerazzurri have a formidable squad that allows Simone Inzaghi to change personnel without jeopardizing the quality of the team.

The reigning Italian champions are coming off a disappointing 1-1 draw against Monza on the weekend. This leaves them third in the Serie A standings with 8 points, trailing behind Udinese and Napoli.

Nevertheless, Inter will have to put this result behind them and focus on their upcoming tilt. After all, their next opponent happens to be one of the strongest sides on the planet. Of course, we’re talking about Manchester City.

The two European giants will collide in a rematch of the 2022/23 Champions League final in Istanbul. And for those who are still hoping to find a ticket for the grand UCL clash, you can try your luck on Livefootballtickets, your safe and reliable haven for the biggest football events.

After dropping some of his key players from the starting lineup against Monza, Inzaghi will be looking to field his strongest XI against the Premier League champions.

Therefore, we can expect the likes of Nicolo Barella, Hakan Calhanoglu and Alessandro Bastoni to start once more.

Lele Adani Insists Inter Milan Have A Supreme Squad Consisting Of 22 Starters

Moreover, the 48-year-old will resort to Francesco Acerbi who managed to nullify Erling Haaland’s threat almost 18 months ago.

Nevertheless, Adani insists Inter have 22 players worthy of a starting role. Therefore, making tweaks to the lineup must never justify underwhelming performances or disappointing results.

“Inter have 22 starters. The word rotation doesn’t exist,” argued the 50-year-old during his appearance on Twitch via FcInter1908.

“So when we say that the Nerazzurri dominated the league last season and threw away the previous two Scudetti, it’s natural that we expect them to do more in the Champions League.

“However, this doesn’t relieve them from their responsibilities in Serie A. We said the same about Juventus when they dominated Italian football for nine years.”

Nevertheless, Adani doesn’t blame Inzaghi’s rotation for the team’s shortcomings at the U-Power Stadium.

He insists the coach was serious in his approach, but his men should have delivered a better display.

Following their trip to the Etihad Stadium, Inter will resume their domestic campaign with a top showdown against AC Milan.

The Nerazzurri will be looking to extend their positive run in the Derby della Madonnina. The last time the two arch-rivals crossed paths, it ended with Inter celebrating their 20th league title.
