Sneijder urges Inter Milan to stand up and fight

Wesley Sneijder has urged Inter Milan teammates to stand up and fight after their dismal defeat to Catania.

Sneijder has called upon his Inter teammates to 'unite, run and fight together' in order to return to winning ways. He remarked: "The situation is clear and under the eyes of everyone watching we have not done well in Serie A. Four points in six games is something nobody expected at the start of the campaign, but we have all season to recover."

Sneijder has returned to the squad ahead of their Champions League trip to France to face Lille in midweek.

"This is perhaps the first game that we have a complete squad available - apart from [Diego] Forlan. Wins are the most important thing and it is time to start fighting all together, once again becoming a team. In these situations you have to win and nothing else.

"At this time we have to play as a team. We are more or less the same group as two years ago when we won everything.

"We must all work hard and have to help out more, but I'm not afraid of the situation. I have good feelings for and trust in Inter. We will emerge."
