2015–16 Inter Milan season

Internazionale bought several players (Felipe Melo, Stevan Jovetić, Adem Ljajić, Miranda, Geoffrey Kondogbia, Jeison Murillo, Ivan Perišić and Alex Telles), which were for the most part from abroad.[2] The predictable lack of team spirit between the new arrivals (due to the fact that, only months before, they played in foreign leagues) and the absence of a basic plan (Mancini used 19 different lineups in equal games) often caused Inter's results to stem from individual elements.[3] Despite a 4–1 defeat by Fiorentina and three consecutive draws,[4][5] after the November pause Inter moved up to first place.[6] It was retained until the end of year[7] when the side beats a record: all goals, along the last 12 months, were scored by foreign footballers.[8][9][10]

Losing with Sassuolo in January, Inter fell in the standings between January and February.[11][12] Inter reacted in the Coppa Italia where, in the second leg of the semifinals, Inter defeated Juventus 3–0, which equalized the score of the first leg, however the Turin side then won on penalties.[13][14] After having wasted chances to reach third place,[15] Inter achieved fourth.[16][17] The side collected 67 points, for the best result of the last five years.[18]
