Football: Sanchez gives Inter that extra 'oomph'- Conte

The Inter boss is pleased to have the Chilean back in his ranks after he scored in a 6-0 win over Brescia. Antonio Conte: "I expect that [Alexis Sanchez] keeps improving. We shouldn't forget that we've not had Sanchez available for much of this season, just for a few games at the beginning. We've played this season with just [Romelu] Lukaku and Lautaro [Martinez]. As I said earlier, in the pre-game press conference, it depends on whether you want to see the glass half-full, or half-empty. But nobody considers that we played three-quarters of the season with just two strikers, and with [Sebastiano] Esposito, who is a lad with a great future, but we should not forget he is just 17-18 years old, and last year he wasn't always playing in the youth team. Now, we have Alexis Sanchez in good shape he still has room for improvement, he can do better. But definitely I am more at ease in having him, in my available, even during the game. Against Parma, he gave us a lot, even as an offensive midfielder, providing that that extra oomph, because his characteristics are different compared to Lukaku and Lautaro. Now he's got to keep playing this way, but he is doing well and I am happy for him."
