What They're Saying
Inter Milan midfielder Fredy Guarin (via Football Italia): "There's more intensity in our game. We have a more attacking mentality, that means we defend much higher up the pitch, starting from the striker who Mancini says must always be the first defender."
Torino manager Giampiero Ventura (via Football Italia): "If we push forward, then we do get something, but a scrappy game is not in our DNA. The positive things are the reaction of the team and Maxi Lopez."
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: Guarin has been integral as a box-to-box midfielder for Milan. In 13 league appearances, the 28-year-old has four assists and an average of 1.8 tackles.
