Rossi backing ex-Man Utd attack for Inter Milan success

Giuseppe Rossi is backing Inter Milan for big things with their new-look attack.

Like Alexis Sanchez and Romelu Lukaku, Rossi also played for Manchester United.

"Lukaku works the attack by himself but plays for the team," Rossi told Gazzetta dello Sport.

“Conte demanded him for his CV: he scores goals in every way, he knows how to do everything.

“I've met him, he's a splendid lad and he talked to me in Italian. Alexis Sanchez is good but I don't know him that well, even if I almost always beat him at football ping-pong...

“I reminded him in Manchester that he went to Barcelona thanks to me. They tried to sign me in 2011, but Villarreal refused their offer and they didn't want to sell me, so [Barca] went for him instead."
