Inter Milan Unimpressive In Serie A --Dumfries

Inter Milan star, Denzel Dumfries has expressed disappointment with the team’s poor performance in the Serie A this ongoing season.

Recall that the Nerazzurri currently sit 7th in the Serie A table after the first seven games.

In a chat with De Telegraaf, the Dutch international stated that the team will try to change their fortune on the league table after the international break.

“The situation at Inter is annoying, we want to change things as soon as possible. So, in this respect, the international break has been an annoyance.

“But maybe it can be useful to clear one’s head again.

“We have many experienced guys in the squad, who do everything to get the most out of themselves and their careers. I try to learn from that every day. But my eyes were really opened during a day off last season.

“I had to report a minor injury to the club for treatment. I went to the weight room and saw thirteen players training on their own. If I had not been injured, I would never have known that so many teammates sacrificed their days off to improve and get fitter.

“But then I told myself that this is how it works, that you always have to work on your body. And I’ve been doing that ever since.”

Style of play

Former teammate Daniël Esajas said about Dumfries: “As humble, almost shy as Denzel could be off the field, he was so convinced of his footballing qualities. He never doubted that he would reach the absolute top. Denzel had one quality that many of his peers lacked: an unwavering commitment. But he sometimes took it too far.

He wanted to give the pass and then head the ball in himself. I can still see Denzel racing across that field. Then he would have picked up the ball from his own keeper. And there he then went with those big steps, in one straight line to the other side, directly towards his goal. Denzel wasn’t even super wide, rather tall. But he was just unbearable for opponents. He went right through them like an elephant.
