Unlike their rivals, none of the titular players had any physical problems, a factor that influenced their overuse. Inzaghi has always insisted on the same ones and now many (Barella in primis) seem to be in reserve. Seasonal minutes say it all
Three clues prove it. Inter are tired in the head and in the legs. The 0-0 in a derby of rare ugliness (but which keeps the door open for the Cup final) comes after the knockout with Sassuolo – too easily derided as a banana peel after Liverpool – and after another sad draw, with Genoa. Inter have lost their smiles, their victories and even their petrol. What worries the management, Inzaghi and the fans is the recent feeling of a tired, almost empty team. It is enough to analyze the seasonal minutes of the individuals to understand where the problem lies.
