Inter Milan's players are optimistic yet aware of the challenges ahead, as discussions about achieving a treble have emerged. Their recent comeback victory on Saturday has extended their lead in Serie A to four points. However, Napoli could narrow this gap to just one point with a win over Fiorentina on Sunday.

Inter's journey in the Champions League is promising after a 2-0 away victory against Feyenoord in the last-16 first leg. This win puts them in a favourable position for the quarter-finals. Additionally, they anticipate a Coppa Italia semi-final clash with AC Milan in April.

Monza, currently at the bottom of the table, surprised many by taking an early 2-0 lead against Inter. However, Marko Arnautovic and Hakan Calhanoglu equalised before Georgios Kyriakopoulos's own goal secured Inter's win. "We can't underestimate teams," Calhanoglu told Sky after scoring his 50th Serie A goal.

Arnautovic, who was part of Inter's treble-winning squad in 2010, has been instrumental recently. He scored in consecutive home games for the first time since late 2022. Reflecting on his past experience, he said, "I was a fan when Inter won the first treble... Now I'm here, we try to win everything."

Yann Bisseck shares optimism about winning another treble, stating it's "100% possible" as they remain active in all competitions. He emphasised staying focused and taking it step by step. Meanwhile, Simone Inzaghi corrected a reporter before their Champions League match, asserting their pursuit of the treble.

After defeating Monza, Inzaghi reiterated their ambition for multiple trophies this season. He humorously noted they are also contenders for the Club World Cup at season's end. "The only idea in our minds is to make our fans happy," Inzaghi remarked.

Upcoming Challenges and Determination

The coach praised his team's spirit and stressed taking each game as it comes. They aim to honour every match while preparing for their next encounter against Feyenoord shortly. The season remains long and challenging, but Inter is determined to maintain momentum.

Their focus remains on delivering joy to their supporters through consistent performances across all competitions. With key matches ahead, Inter is poised to continue striving for success on multiple fronts.
