Rafinha hope for Inter
The Brazilian could help the team to remain in the positions of Champions
Inter is currently going through a bad moment, after equaling last Saturday against Crotone 1-1, which represents their eighth consecutive game in the league without knowing the victory.
Inter without the Argentine Mauro Icardi who recently suffered an elongation in the right thigh, saw no personality on the court. However Rafinha Alcántara, recently ceded by Barcelona, played the final half hour and although he could not change the fate of the meeting, he left encouraging details for coach Luciano Spalletti who seriously considered the possibility of changing the scheme to obtain his maximum performance.

The coach has thought about altering the 4-2-3-1 he has used since his arrival at Inter in summer, introducing a diamond in the center of the field, perhaps the best solution for the Brazilian considering that the 4-4-2 It is an easy system to assimilate, or betting on a 3-4-1-2. In both cases Rafinha would act as a half point behind the Mauro Icardi and Eder points.
The midfielder showed good control of the ball, fast vision of game and displacement with criteria, for which the technical director will seek to take full advantage of these qualities so that Inter retains the fourth place in the classification at least to have access to the next Champions.
The Brazilian is at 80% of his physical condition and Spalletti's plan is to protect him so that little by little he has that specific weight in the team that everyone expects.

good post
Rafinha is a fine player, but I don't think he is what Inter needs to get out of the loop. The team depends too much on Icardi, and he is injured, plus he had a rift recently with both Perisic and Brozovic (who was one of his closest friends). Most probably, Icardi will end up next season landing on Real Madrid, and Inter will have to find some nice wingbacks, an attacking midfielder and a couple forwards if they want to keep on other teams like Napoli, Juve, Roma and even Lazio.
