Calhanoglu was interviewed by Sky Sports Italia after Inter Milan beat defending champions Napoli 3-0 away to remain top of the Serie A table.
Napoli are a strong team with a lot of quality, but it's very important for us to send that signal because we are being chased by other teams. Calhanoglu said.
It's very important to win this game, and the details make the difference between winning and losing. We stayed calm and focused, pressed the opponent and didn't give them a chance to play, and we deserved to win. They were strong in terms of individual quality, with Kvaratskhelia, Osimhen and Politano always looking for opportunities to break through, but we limited them by moving forward. I think that's very important. We deserved to win this game. ”
I think it's very important to rotate well, like the rest we got after the game at Benfica. It's not easy to play every three days, it's all important and our manager handled it well. We learned a lot from last year's Champions League final, last season we made a lot of mistakes with small teams and we don't want to repeat that this season. ”
Contributions on the defensive end?You're not Xi to seeing me like that, but I've always had that passion to help the team. It's not easy to play in the front midfield and then switch to the back of the playmaker. I analysed a lot of the situation and the coaching staff helped me as well. I got more yellow cards but it was understandable in this position. ”
The rivalry between Inter and Juventus?It's a long season, no one can say, there are other teams competing and we're just focusing on ourselves. ”
