Bisseck: ‘Inter want to play with a high line’ | OneFootball

Inter defender Yann Bisseck ‘always’ wants to play and is eager to help Cristian Chivu to ‘play with a high line.’

Bisseck played 90 minutes in Inter’s 3-0 win over Fiorentina on Wednesday.

He started as the central defender in a three-man backline completed by Manuel Akanji and Alessandro Bastoni.

It was only the second time he played in such a position this season.

“I always want to play, it doesn’t matter where. I know we want to play with a high line. I think we all played a great game, and we are all happy,” Bisseck told DAZN.

The German defender came close to scoring in the second half, but was denied by a superb save from David De Gea.

“We all want to score, but the defence is very important, and I think today we played a great game, in attack and in defence, we are very happy,” said Bisseck.

Lastly, the Nerazzurri centre-back was asked whether Cristian Chivu is almost like a teammate for some Inter players, but he replied: “No, he’s the coach. He’s very kind, also off the pitch, it’s always possible to talk to him, also about matters that are not necessarily related to football. If we put all he wants on the pitch, we can have a great season.”
