Perisic is a streaky quality player. He usually works his ass off and is always too isolated under Spalletti and expected to beat his man and then make a good cross/pass to the only player in the area we have in Icardi who is marked by 2 and surrounded by 4 defenders. So if Perisic doesn't score or assist [to Icardi], you get the idea that he's "not there", which is usually untrue. He's been poor offensively as of late but he's almost always putting the extra effort in defence. Which people don't realize that it takes the toll on the offensive end and him being our 2nd major offensive threat, it's absurd how much pressure we put him to help the defence. He will thrive in a more free role, probably in a different environment and he'll end up being one of those Inter regrets where people wanted him out but when he's out they're bashing the management of sending him away.
Candreva used to be an offensive threat but he's lost that extra speed so he's just a frustrating player to watch now. It's a shame we got him too late in his career. He's still serviceable as a backup player but he's a player we need to cash in as much as possible at this stage because we can do better.
Nainggolan is too early to judge. We're all disappointed that he hasn't played much and that he got unlucky with injuries and putting aside that audio message, there's not much to say other than that. He's still our most dangerous midfielder, which speaks a lot about the quality of our midfield. I also feel that Spalletti is not utilizing him very well, he should play deeper, but I understand that he wants a scoring threat behind Icardi.
