Milan

Midfielder Inter Milan, Christian Eriksen, reveals differences in playing styles in English and Italy. Although, he denies the difficulty of adapting in A league.

Eriksen joined Inter in January from Tottenham Hotspur for a fee of 27 million euros. When close to Giuseppe Meazza, great hopes pinned on Nerazurri fans to him.

Because, Eriksen was previously a playmaker The Lillywhites mainstay. He became one of the pillars of Tottenham’s success in reaching the final of the Champions League last season.

But at Inter, Eriksen was unable to become the main choice of the Snake coach, Antonio Conte. He is mostly played as a substitute so he has just scored four goals and three assists from 23 matches.

Conte had said that the Danish player had difficulty adapting to Italian football. This assumption was pushed aside by Eriksen.

He admitted that he really enjoyed the pattern of the game that was carried by La Beneamata. Although, Eriksen also did not deny that the style of play carried by the English team with the Italian team was indeed far different.

This 28-year-old player assesses the style of playing the English team more direct or immediately release the ball into the opponent’s defense area. While in the State of Pizza, more control of the ball is emphasized.

Football in the Premier League is certainly more direct. You constantly have to go up and down in the field. While in Italy, they put more emphasis on winning control of the ball back and how to deal with certain moments in the match, “said Eriksen quoted from Football Italia.

“I have to do man to man marking at this time. This is a different game pattern than I usually do, but it is fun and I like it,” he explained.
