Inter Milan’s Serie A title challenge under Antonio Conte is not shocking because the Italian manager gets the best out of his players.
Pirlo said he knew Inter was going to improve immediately they signed the former Chelsea manager.
According to him, Conte always leads his boys to give their all and he does not stop until he achieves just that from every player.
He added that Antonio is addicted to winning and that trend will most likely continue in Italy.
His words, “Not surprised, because I know him too well,”
“I knew Inter would be at this level, fighting for the league title until the end.
“He always leads you to give your best, to play better than you think you can.
“He is addicted to winning, if he loses you can’t talk to him. He becomes a devil!”
On how instrumental Conte was when he played under him at Juve, “Him especially. Then the club spent well on players that fit well with the coach’s ideas. A serious club does the rest.
“Today Juventus are so strong because they have quality in every position – the team was built by getting one player at a time better than the last. But I am sure Inter will fight to the end.”
On Eriksen, “He is an excellent player,”
“He will raise their level. He needs time because he is coming from a very different championship.”
