Former Inter assistant coach Sinisa Mihajlovic insists that the reason the Nerazzurri have such a strong squad is because of the hard work that he and former coach Roberto Mancini did before Jose Mourinho’s arrival.
The ‘Special One’ has been receiving great praise for the results he has been obtaining thus far at San Siro and great things are expected this term.
However, Mihajlovic has taken another swipe at his old side and he has reminded everyone who have forgotten the work he and Mancini did during their spell there.
“Many people have short memories. When I and Mancini arrived, the Nerazzurri were not considered to be a great side,” said Mihajlovic.
“There were many problems internally at the club and it was myself and Mancini who organised things and we instilled a winning mentality.
“It just goes to show that there is no recognition in football any more.
“The reason Inter are so strong is because of the work that we did. It was a shame that our work was interrupted suddenly because we had achieved great results.”
The former Serbian international and Mancini were both axed at the end of last season following a number of problems with Massimo Moratti.
Mourinho was quickly dragged in through the door and his objectives are to win the Scudetto but, more importantly, lift the Champions League.
