He has posted two chances, 23 crosses (two accurate), six tackles, and five clearances in 12 appearances (one start).

Impact Calhanoglu normally piles on major volume but was held off the scoresheet and kept out of the game for the most part with just three crosses a single corner. The creative midfielder failed to do anything with the limited volume and in the end was left with a disappointing day on both sides of the ball. Calhanoglu has six goal contributions in 17 appearances this season.

Alessandro Bastoni - Six tackles Saturday Bastoni registered two crosses (zero accurate) and six tackles in Saturday's 1-0 win over Verona.

The center-back doesn't offer much of anything going forward but a brilliant Inter defense keeps him in contention with clean sheet upside. Bastoni will hope to keep this sort of strong defensive form going with two clean sheets in his last three matches.
