Since replacing Simone Inzaghi in the summer, Cristian Chivu has introduced subtle tactical tweaks as Inter Milan head coach.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, Chivu’s tacitcal adjustments are beginning to pay off.

Despite losing some ground on Serie A leaders Napoli, the San Siro giants have plenty of time to close the gap.

Indeed, Chivu’s charges trail the reigning Scudetto holders by six points after losing to Udinese and Juventus in the first four rounds.

Cristian Chivu has got his Serie A tenure off to a mixed start.

However, it’s impossible to rule Inter out of the title race, with 34 matches left.

Furthermore, Chivu’s new ideas have started to take shape.

Indeed, high press and direct football were the key ingredients behind Inter’s 2-1 home win over Sassuolo on Monday.

Yet, there’s no room for complacency.

Six points are imperative over the next two league matches against Cagliari and Cremonese.

Victories against the two Serie A minnows would lift the spirits ahead of October’s international break.
