I think a big part of the defensive struggles this early in the season is down to the lack of counter attacking potential in this inter side.
Last season, the opposition could not afford stand too high on the pitch, due to the huge counter attacking potential of Lukaku and Hakimi. This season with the fairly slow Darmian and Dzekosaurus, there isnt the same threat, so opposing teams can effectively stand 10m higher on the pitch compared to last season and press much more in the offensive phase, because the threat of being caught on the counter isnt very big.
Not sure how Inzaghi can fix this, but its surely a problem.
