Inter Milan vice-president Javier Zanetti says they must move on from the sacking of Walter Mazzarri.
Inter meet AC Milan this weekend.
"Changing Coaches is not a pleasure, we had respect for Mazzarri's work," Zanetti conceded briefly.
"But now let's think about Sunday. The players are motivated. Because the game comes at a key moment and they will be giving their all for a victory."
He added on new coach Roberto Mancini: "I had the good fortune of being the captain in his Inter, when we started winning. He did a great job.
"Now he is back and brings enthusiasm, and experience from other countries.
"He will attempt to give his contribution to the Inter family, to give the tifosi a team that can fight for important objectives.
"The group is motivated, but it takes time, because he needs to get to know the players - I have seen the willingness of all to be able to do good for Inter.
"Am I more involved now Mancini is here? I have always been, I am always available to the club, according to Thohir and the directors.
"Now I will be closer to the squad, but there is respect for the roles everyone has."
