He\u2019s the best Coach in the world: he manages to improve his players, while his career speaks for itself.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI chose Inter because of the Club\u2019s project. I think Inter are heading in the right direction and I needed a new challenge. Here, the foundations are there to do well. Through my commitment and my desire to perform, I want to help this team achieve big things. I won&#8217;t get ahead of myself, but I hope we\u2019ll have achieved great results come the end of the season.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Inter were the only club I wanted, because Inter is Not For Everyone.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"How will Solskjaer setup Man Utd?\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/xwspIbtj_Ew?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>Subscribe to <a href=\"http:\/\/sqwk.at\/Squawka-Sub\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Squawka\u2019s Youtube channel here<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><strong>&#8220;I\u2019m here to bring the Nerazzurri back to the top.&#8221;<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>To say that the Serie A is a monopoly is something of an understatement.<\/p>\n<p>Juventus are bidding to win their ninth Scudetto on the bounce this season: Inter&#8217;s rivals AC Milan were the last side to beat the Old Lady to Italy&#8217;s championship back in 2010\/11.<\/p>\n<p>Inter ended up fourth last season, securing Champions League football, but were disappointed not to kick on after multiple signings in the summer of 2018.
