Inter Milan midfielder Hernanes insists they can reach the summit of Italian and European football.

The Nerazzurri fell 1-0 to Sampdoria last week.

"When you're chilled and in good shape you shouldn't moan about how things are going," Hernanes has said, in an interview with Inter Channel.

"What happens, happens. If we have to wait before we get to play, then we will.

"We're in a good condition now. In fact, I'd like to invite the audience to come and witness the start to Inter's climb to the top of the world.

"The Coach [Roberto Mancini] made us work on the technical side of things. He wants us to reduce as far as possible our margin of error when passing, while keeping the right body stance as we defend space. This is the case during the offensive and defensive phase alike.

"Our conscience is clear, we're just waiting to get back in the pitch. We're getting ready to take Inter back to the heights, it's our target for this shirt."
