Granted, Mancini has won the Serie A for Inter (twice) and the Coppa Italia (Three times if I recall correctly) but there's one hge ink-blot on an otherwise satisfactory composition; The Champions League.&nbsp; Consistent failure, annual excuse finding and above all else a great difference form the kind ofform shown in the Serie A.&nbsp; These have been the symbols associated with thewordsChampions League and Inter when they are used in the same sentence or conversation.&nbsp; Why?&nbsp; Players not good enough? Doubtful.&nbsp; Not enough money invested? Don't make me laugh.&nbsp; Possibly a lack of respect towards the coach, lack of self-confidence or lack of will-power on the players' side? Just maybe.&nbsp; But the real reason,&nbsp; in my most humble opinion is the total tactical void in Mancini.&nbsp; There&nbsp; is no sense of analysing the opponents weak-points, no sense of building a formation according to your opponents, no sense of building a formation that should be able to dictate play.&nbsp; It doesn't take a great squad to win in knock-out competitions (take Otto Rehagel's Greece Euro 2004 Champions or Mourinho's Porto as perfect examples).&nbsp; It takes a good coach, something which the Mancini will never have. </p><img src="http://community.goal.com/en/aggbug.aspx?PostID=53563" width="1" height="1">Eggberthttp://community.goal.com/en/members/Eggbert.aspx
