"The noise from critics is part of the game; it's always been topical. I go about things in my own way, I'm busy doing things to help the players. The team deserves to be defended because it's a strong group. The whole world was talking about them in March, then they had a bit of misfortune. We mustn't forget that this team had a quality season. There are a thousand other adjectives I could use. They're keeping me calm."
"I have a thousand other things to think about,"
Cristian Chivu defended his Inter side and dismissed critics ahead of the Sassuolo match, saying he has many other priorities. Inter have taken three points from their opening three Serie A games, beating Torino before defeats to Udinese and Juventus. Marcus Thuram scored twice as Inter beat Ajax 2-0 in the Champions League, providing momentum for the title chase. Chivu stressed the squad's quality, urged defence of the group and minimized critics' noise. Lautaro Martinez missed the Ajax start with back pain but trained on Saturday, and Josep Martinez is expected to be considered in goal.
