He is not experiencing his best moment since he came to Inter, but Mateo Kovacic will not let that break him down, quite the opposite. He has every intention of listening to Roberto Mancini to try to earn his total confidence and a given place in Nerazzurri’s starting eleven. The Croatian gave an exclusive interview to Sky Sport in which he talked about his team and his personal situation: “Many players play bad matches or make mistakes or don’t play well, but in Italy it is so critical. I don’t think about it. New players have arrived but the Competition is good and it can only help. The words of Mancini? I don’t think any team can build on one player, in football the team counts, not the individual. I have a good relationship with Mancini, like all the other players.”

Inter’s number 10 then talked about the new role he has had this season: “I don’t give weight to the goals that I score, I look more than anything on the season in general, thinking of the team. In this regard, I would say that we haven’t done as well as we wanted, but now there are still three months to do better. Unusual to score so little for a midfielder of my characteristics? With Stramaccioni I played more behind, now I play further up on the pitch, and that’s why the goals have arrived.”
