MILAN – Outside the Saras offices, president Massimo Moratti answered questions from Sky Sport 24's Matteo Barzaghi.
The games against Chievo Verona and Olympique Marseille will be huge for Inter...
"Of course. In the league we need to continue to show what we did in the last half an hour of Sunday's game, and the game against Marseille will be important because it's the Champions League, so we need to get it right."
What are your thoughts on Claudio Ranieri? It can't be easy for a coach to keep things on track during this difficult period.
"Of course it's not easy for a coach to read in the papers every day that there's a new coach coming in to replace him, when in actual fact no contact has been made with any other coach. He's professional, he's getting on with his job, and he has my complete support in this difficult time that he's experiencing and that we're trying to get through."
Mr. Moratti, are you concerned by the fact that the fans are discontented and asking for explanations?
"I think it's quite normal - I do it myself if I'm not happy as a supporter - to try and work out what is going on. All I can say is that I haven't been indifferent or absent as I read somewhere, but quite the opposite, and I am therefore trying to work on a timeframe which ensures that things are resolved this year and that we have a project going forward. "
Ronaldo has claimed that you got rid of him when he asked you to sack Cuper.
"Ronaldo's memory differs
slightly from mine, but I'm too fond of him to contradict him. It happened
somewhat differently, I don't see myself in the hard role that he has depicted
of me."
