"We could've won 4-1 considering the way we played in the second half.  We are not 100 per cent happy, but it's still early days. "We changed some little details and I am confident we can get three points in the next games."We were unlucky to concede a goal with Palermo's first attempt, but today the team created a great deal." Inter improved upon the performance they produced in a shock opening-day defeat at Chievo and, like De Boer, defender Jeison Murillo felt the hosts should have claimed the victory. "We're disappointed that we didn't manage to pick up the three points in front of our own fans, but we worked hard and kept fighting," he said. "There's room for improvement and that's what we'll work towards. "Credit to Palermo tonight, but we gave everything and created several chances."Antonio Candreva impressed during his cameo off the bench, providing the cross for Icardi's equaliser and going close to scoring a late winner with a volley that flew narrowly over the bar. And De Boer was quick to praise the impact made by the Italy international."We have a lot of quality in the squad and he could've started," he said."He did very well, you can see he wanted to make the difference." Palermo coach Davide Ballardini, meanwhile, knows the visitors came close to bringing their San Siro hoodoo to an end."We threatened to win here," he said, "because after going 1-0 up we could've closed it [out]. "I compliment my team, as a draw is a creditable result in Milan. "Our performance was also decent against Sassuolo, despite the defeat, so I expected similar." Next on the agenda for Palermo, following the international break, is a home clash with Napoli, while Inter visit Pescara.</blockquote>
