Hupu September 17th Inter Milan right-wing defender Dumfries attended the pre-Champions League press conference against Ajax.
Both you and Coach Zivo have played in the Dutch League.
"The past experience is great. I myself have even watched the video of Zivo playing for Inter Milan. We know Dutch football.
Ajax has always been an excellent team. They have many strong players, even personal strength. I paid attention to their performance at the beginning of the season, and they have a good understanding of the game."
You have lost two games. What exactly happened to Inter Milan?
"We lost two of our three games. The start was not ideal, but we were experienced, we played a lot of games together, and we wanted to get back on track.
There is another event now, we have to start well. It all depends on ourselves, we have to show our value."
Have you seen Zivo play when you were a kid?
"No, but he is very famous in the Netherlands. I was too young at that time and had never seen him."
His time in Inter Milan was like a fighter. Will this spirit be passed on to you?
"We lost two games, which is a pity, but the whole world knows that he is a winner and he also strives to pass on this spirit to the players. We strive to lead by example and set a good example in Serie A. I am very happy to have a coach like him."
Why is Inter Milan not going well in the season?
"If you look back at the game against Juventus, you will find that we have some moments of losing the ball, it's too easy. We work hard to improve and say we need to improve. But our style of play dominates; we lose in details. However, we are experienced and know how to turn things around."
Have you found the reason for losing the ball later in the game?
"We discussed the reasons for conceding the ball, and I think we need to admit that there is something wrong with the team's performance. For example, against Juventus, we played very well: when we got possession, we did what we needed to do, but we lost the ball at the wrong time. We hope to learn more about these moments in the next few games."
What are the goals in this Champions League?
"We participated in the Champions League to win, we have a good lineup, but I don't think we should perform better than last year. We are a great club, we have the ability to win the Champions League, but the Champions League is tough, and we have to go all out from tomorrow."
In addition to individual games, do you need to improve on your personality level?
"Our performance was not satisfactory at the beginning of the season, but we had to improve and find the right motivation. We are a team with rich experience and distinctive personalities. We communicate with each other and know that we still have a lot to improve."
Why should Ajax be afraid of Inter Milan?
"I don't know, we are experienced and we know what to do even if we start badly. The Champions League is an excellent event, we want to defend Inter Milan's jerseys, and we want to win tomorrow."
