Mancini Salme

Gazzetta dello Sport attempts to anticipate the choices of Inter coach Roberto Mancini. After speculation that Hernanes could occupy a wide role in the 4-2-3-1 Mancini is targeting things seem to have changed. The ex Lazio man worked with Kovacic in a ‘Christmas tree formation’ 4-3-2-1 during yesterday’s practice. The most likely route Mancini will take however is to change very little. Palacio and Icardi up front with Kuzmanovic, Guarin and Medel operating behind Kovacic. Hugo Campagnaro looks set to start on the right hand side of defence. If international clearance arrives Lukas Podolski and Hernanes could be very good options off the bench.
