Serie A Soccer: Inter-esting transformation

p After winning the scudetto in comfortable fashion (ten points ahead of second placed Juventus), Inter Milan seem to be rebuilding. This is of course after a disasterous showing in the UEFA Champion’s League. They were bested by eventually finalists Manchester United in the first knockout round for the third consecutive year.
