Ivan Perisic left Wolfsburg for the San Siro at the end of August.

While Wolfsburg prepare for games against Manchester United, CSKA Moscow and PSV Eindhoven in the group stage this season, Perisic will be putting his feet up and watching on television. He will not get to hear the Champions League anthem that he would have heard had he remained with the Bundesliga club. But he has no regrets.

With the transfer window closed the Inter coach now has all the components he asked for to create the style of play he wants. He does however face a conundrum of the "stick or twist" variety. He has maximum…
