According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Inter Milan boss Simone Inzaghi plans to start rotating the team's forward lineup in order to cope with the upcoming intensive schedule. Starting this weekend, Inter will face Roma, Young Boys of Bern and Juventus in consecutive matches.
Inzaghi will reportedly start regular starters Lautaro and Marcus Thuram against Roma. However, come next week's midweek Champions League away match against the Young Boys of Bern, he plans to feature Taremi and Arnautovic as starting forwards. This rotation strategy is aimed at keeping the forward line energized and in shape for the intensive fixture schedule.
Marcus Thuram has been excellent for Inter so far this season up front, contributing 7 goals and 1 assist in 8 games played. Lautaro has been equally impressive, scoring three goals and assisting once in eight appearances, including six starts. Taremi, on the other hand, made eight appearances and three starts, scoring one goal and assisting three times. Arnautovic has also scored one goal despite making fewer appearances.
This rotation strategy of Inzaghi is undoubtedly to ensure that the team can remain competitive in the intensive fixtures, as well as to provide more game opportunities and rest time for the players in order to avoid affecting their performance due to excessive fatigue.
