MILAN - Danilo D'Ambrosio believes Inter have been transformed into a`steely outfit who battle for every ball under Stefano Pioli.
"He's made us consistent," our No..33 said of the coach after Saturday's victory over Pescara at the Meazza. "We train at a really high tempo and we've made tremendous improvement fitness-wise.
"The boss has been very clear in giving all of us really precise instructions and pointing out what we're doing wrong. He's turned us into a team that fights for every ball. The most important thing of all is the attitude and the hunger we all show. Even when we're not playing, we give 100% and that helps the team to grow."
The Italian full-back, who grabbed the opener as the Nerazzurri extended their winning streak to seven league matches, also reiterated his belief that success breeds success
"Winning games helps you to win more and when you're picking up results you train better. We're working hard and I think the results are there to see. There are lots of games still to play and hopefully we can keep winning at the same rate as now.
"A dedication for the goal? It's for my wife Enza and Leonardo, our first born who's due in March."
Inter face the league leaders in their next match but D'Ambrosio was keen to divert the attention to the midweek cup meeting with Lazio.
"Before Juventus we have another massively important game against Lazio so we'll put everything into that.”
