The fans have asked Mazzarri to play Mateo Kovacic, fearing that another episode such as those involving Coutinho or even Pirlo could take place. The Gazzetta dello Sport this morning writes about the conversations that took place between Erick Thohir, Marco Fassone and Walter Mazzarri. It is thought that Thohir wanted to stress to Mazzarri how important players like Kovacic are to the project. Having started in just 7 out of 26 appearances this season, the Croatian international is hungry to play. Despite struggling to find a rhythm and security with Mazzarri, in Hernanes he has found someone with whom there is a spark. Inter have six games to secure a European place and six games to find the real Kovacic.
