Gasperini joined the San Siro outfit in the summer after being dismissed as the coach of Genoa last season."If instead, as I believe, the problem is another one, then we must resolve it through work."But, despite falling below expectations so far in his tenure, Gasperini is remaining defiant.The Italian giants were also the victims of an unlikely 1-0 home defeat to Turkish side Trabzonspor in the UEFA Champions League last week.Inter Milan coach Gian Piero Gasperini has hit back at the club president's claim that he has lost the support of the players after another shock defeat on TuesdayInter lost 3-1 to newly-promoted Novara and are 14th in Serie A after picking up just one point in their first three games. After Tuesday's defeat, Nerazzurri president Massimo Moratti said: "Gasperini didn't have control of the match? It really seems to me that he didn't, but let's sleep on it." Inter finished second in the league last term under the guidance of Rafa Benitez and, from December, Leonardo, who had the unenviable task of trying to emulate Jose Mourinho's treble-winning side of the season before. He told La Gazzetta dello Sport: "Moratti has declared that I don't have the support of the players? The harmony of the group is very good."If the problem is the coach, then it has an easy solution. International stars such as Wesley Sneijder, Diego Milito and Esteban Cambiasso all played in the defeat to Novara on Tuesday andGasperini is adamant that he is getting on well with the playersHe told the club's official website: "The relationship with the players is great, more than professional, and there's no revolt going on."I will say what I think directly to the president and the directors. However, I still believe that this team must live less in the past and more in the present, in the situation that we are in today."There's no need to reset everything, but to recognise the reality of the latest performances. It's necessary to reach a greater consistency, regardless of the formations and the coach."This match was certainly a kick in the teeth, but I have to think of doing my job."I'm serious about my work, which has given me much satisfaction in the past, and now it is putting me to the test. But I have to work in order to resolve this situation."Inter Milan go to Bologna in the league on Saturday before a trip to CSKA Moscow in the Champions League on Tuesday.
