Inter Milan coach Luciano Spalletti: I've always had problems with Torino

Inter Milan coach Luciano Spalletti says they need to show intensity against Torino.

Spalletti admits he's long found Toro tough opponents.

He said, "We have tried to create more scoring opportunities and our midfielders have it in their DNA to shoot from the edge of the box. Perhaps we ought to be stronger in the air to give Icardi a hand.

“Working at Inter gives me joy. I don't know how far we are into the project, but now we are a team in its totality, but have the potential to achieve even more. We have the options and took a bit too long to find them, but we're there now.

“When you've found the cure, the important thing is not to have a relapse. The players resolved the situation, proved they have a strong character and always kept the steering wheel in their hands. They didn't find the right route straight away, but slowly got on that path.

Walter Mazzarri knows what he's doing and has a lot of experience, but Torino have been playing 3-5-2, then 4-3-2-1 after 4-3-3. We'll have to see what they've got in wait for us.

“We've kept five consecutive clean sheets because we got the whole team involved in defending and that makes the difference. When we work for each other, we all benefit."
