RANIERI: "JUAN, REWARDED FOR HIS CHARACTER"

"He's not ready yet but he's training well. My meeting with Moratti? We always speak at least once a week"

APPIANO GENTILE - "At the moment it's more in our heads. We have this sense of urgency and it's not doing us any good." That was how Claudio Ranieri replied when asked by a journalist whether Inter are struggling more physically or mentally at the moment.

The coach was also asked about the meeting he had with president Massimo Moratti during the week: "Actually we normally speak at least once a week. It was one of out usual meetings, the same as normal."

A Japanese reporter enquired about Yuto Nagatomo's fitness: "He looks a little tired to me. It's no jaunt travelling to Japan and back. But he's ok, regarding the calf problem he had, he's ok."

Juan Jesus's name has appeared in the squad list for a game for the first time. The coach explained: "It's a reward because he has shown incredible strength of character and he's training well. He's not ready yet but I wanted to reward him."

Finally, Ranieri was asked to comment on the ongoing controversy between AC Milan and Juventus: "It's Italian football, I'm not going to change my opinion. Do the two clubs have a long-held bond? I don't know. When I was at Juventus, there were different people running the club so I don't know."
