After losing the derby, Inter needed a win to silence the criticism. They delivered at Rotterdam's De Kuip, beating Feyenoord 3-0 to revive their Champions League campaign. Speaking to Sky Sport afterwards, Inter manager Cristian Chivu looked pleased and stressed the excellent values within his squad.
"We have values and have understood what is wrong"
"We have values, we have understood certain things and put them into practice on the pitch. That does not mean we had not done well up to now. We tried to be the best version of ourselves and today we came through well in terms of intent, intensity and what was needed in an important match at a difficult ground. We always discuss how to correct our mistakes; sometimes we manage it better than others. We have understood the things we are less good at."
The internal debate
"We always talk things through, when things are going well and when they are going less well. We correct our mistakes, sometimes more successfully than others, and perhaps we've managed to improve the things that weren't going so well."
A group with values
"Everyone at Inter is aware of the qualities of this group, who are trying to take the club to a high level, and on that we have never had any doubts."
