As for the treble-winning Inter side, which Ranieri consigned to history yesterday, Zanetti explained that "in 2010 we achieved something that no other Italian side has ever done; now there is another team,which is in difficulty at the moment but doing everything it can to overcome its problems."
Zanetti also offered words of encouragement for Diego Milito, who is struggling for form: "I'm sorry for him because that final touch just isn't coming for him at the moment. He works hard in training and does great things but then it doesn't come off for him in games – and the same goes for Pazzini.But they both know that for the type of player they are this sort of dip can happen and it doesn't take much for everything to turn around."
The captain also spared a few words for the youngsters, who haven't totally convinced so far:"I think all the youngsters who come here find it hard at first. But I'm sorry for Alvarez, Coutinho and Jonathan because they've joined us in a difficult moment; if they had arrived a few year sago, things would have gone differently. You just need to give them some time and keep faith in them." As for Ranieri,"he is excellent and has understood how things work at Inter."
Finally, a comment on tonight's match between Real Madrid and Barcelona: "I've been impressed by Real. It will be extremely tough for Barça." (ANSA)
