Antonio Conte was delighted to see Inter Milan come from two goals down to beat AC Milan 4-2 in the Italian Serie A on Sunday night.

Most of the talk leading up to the game at the San Siro was about Conte's projected starting line-up, with winter signing from Tottenham Hotspur, Christian Eriksen tipped to start ahead of Alexis Sanchez.

The Danish international found himself on the bench, before replacing the Chilean on 72 minutes,while Victor Moses tasted action for the last ten minutes.

Conte believes the Chelsea loanee has quickly settled into life at the Nerazzurri because he tutored the wing-back for two seasons at Chelsea while Eriksen had issues at Tottenham before his arrival in Italy.

"Both Ashley Young and Victor Moses, because they are wing-backs, don’t need quite so much guidance in training. Plus Moses already played with me at Chelsea," Football Italia citing Sky Sport Italia quoted Conte as saying.

"For midfielders, it’s more complicated, as I always ask something pre-planned and memorised for both attacking and defending moves. Christian knows football well, he reads it, but also is not quite at 100 per cent fitness.

"I had thought about using Eriksen behind Lukaku, but then decided not to transform things too much, as it’s important for us to play with the two strikers.

"Eriksen also had this issue dragging on with Tottenham, coming and going, so that takes a lot out of you. I’ve been a player, I know, it’ll take him a little while to settle."
