Mancini: Inter must improve to win Scudetto

Roberto Mancini feels Inter still have room for improvement if they are to challenge for the Serie A title this campaign.

The Giuseppe Meazza side sit joint first on the league table alongside Fiorentina after 12 games, with both sides on 27 points.

"We need to improve in two or three areas if we want to stay up there in the mix until the end," Mancini said at a news conference before the match at home to Frosinone on Sunday.

"There are lots of games to play. Hopefully the fans will keep coming to San Siro in droves. We need them.

"This sort of game isn't easy for anyone. Frosinone are having a great season."

"Icardi and Jovetic need to play together more often. They have tremendous potential for improvement," he added, before revealing part of his starting XI for the encounter on Sunday.

"My line-up against Frosinone? I'll give you four names: [Samir] Handanovic, [Geoffrey] Kondogbia, [Yuto] Nagatomo and Felipe Melo."
