Inzaghi Will Get More Chances Now - Rossi

Lazio coach Delio Rossi says Simone Inzaghi's recent goal against Lecce has increased his chances of playing more frequently in the future.

After scoring a vital equaliser for Lazio in the dying minutes of their recent home game against Lecce, it would seem striker Simone Inzaghi, who hadn't scored for four years, is back in business.

In spite of his problems with the club, who reportedly wanted him to leave last summer, the name Inzaghi remains a guarantee for goals, even though Simone's career pales in comparison to that of his older brother Filippo.

Lazio coach Delio Rossi spoke about the player's situation to newspaper Il Messaggero.

"This goal will allow him to get more consideration," he said. "But now he has to be careful and keep his feet on the ground."

At the end of the match against Lecce, 'Inzaghino' thanked Rossi for bringing him on the pitch instead of Stephen Makinwa.

"When Simone showed he was doing well," Rossi continued, "I did not have problems putting him on the bench instead of Makinwa, but in the last three years, also often due to physical problems, I couldn't possibly have let him play."

great news for Simone...hopefully he'll take advantage of this chance so he can play more often or even from the start of the match....

good luck Simone

At this momoent in time I thing Inzaghi is our 3rd choice striker behind Zarate and Pandev. Inzaghi is fully fit and in good form whereas Rocchi is not, yet.
Isn't it great to see Rossi have renewed faith in Simone?............. 00
