Roberto Mancini hints at formation change for Celtic test

Roberto Mancini reveals that he is considering changing Inter Milan's shape for the Europa League clash with Celtic.

Inter Milan head coach Roberto Mancini has hinted that he may change his side's shape for the Europa League clash with Celtic.

The Nerrazzuri meet the Scottish champions in the first leg of their last-32 tie in Glasgow on Thursday, and Mancini claims that the physical edge to Celtic's play could force him to stray from his usual plan.

"It's going to be a whole other game from the championship," the former Manchester City boss told reporters. "We'll be fighting against a very physical team and we'll have to respond on the same level.

"We'll choose our formation tomorrow, we're still recovering from last Sunday, but there's the chance we may change formations.

"The match against Celtic is going to be important for the team's development, but I don't think it will change our approach too much as we have to keep improving game by game."

Mancini has never won a UEFA competition as a manger.
