The Nerazzurri are on their seventh knockout in the league (the same number of games the club has lost in the two-year period), which hasn’t happened in six years, when there were four changes on the bench. With so many missteps it is impossible to compete for the Scudetto
How long ago were the times of Antonio Conte, when defeat in the league was an exception to the rule and not a habit to meet on a semi-regular basis. The seven knockouts that Inter have already suffered in 24 days of Serie A are obviously not a record, but a worrying figure to say the least for a club that has legitimate ambitions for the Scudetto and instead finds itself 18 points behind a unstoppable leader.
