Inter Boss Jose Mourinho Names Starting Xi For Barcelona Match by soccerprof: 6:03pm On Sep 15, 2009
Inter coach Jose Mourinho has revealed his team for tomorrow's high-profile Champions League fixture against Barcelona at a press conference on Tuesday.

The Portuguese tactician was always keen on naming his starting XI while coach of Chelsea and it is something he has continued to do on occasion since taking the helm of the Nerazzurri.

“We will play with the same team from the derby. The only doubt is over [Dejan] Stankovic or [Sulley] Muntari,” he told the gathered press, before indicating the rest of the squad.

Julio Cesar, Maicon, Lucio, Walter Samuel, Cristian Chivu, Javier Zanetti, Stankovic (or Muntari), Thiago Motta, Wesley Sneijder, Samuel Eto’o, and Diego Milito are the ones that will feature against the Blaugrana in a 4-3-1-2 formation.

Meanwhile, the subject of Zlatan Ibrahimovic's return to the San Siro was once again brought to the forefront.

“We have lost a super player in Ibrahimovic, but we have signed five players of great quality in his place," the former Chelsea boss argued.

“Our roster is one of quality, but we need time to build a squad."

England Boss Fabio Capello recently claimed that it would be a failure if Inter did not win the continental trophy this year, after several disappointing season's in the competition's recent past.

"Who says that we must win Champions League not understand anything about football," he said, before concluding by listing off possible contenders for the trophy - including Chelsea, Manchester United, Barcelona, Arsenal, Bayern Munich, and Real Madrid.

One surprise is that midfielder Esteban Cambiasso, who has been out since pre-season with a knee injury, has been included in the 22-man squad. He was originally expected to return in mid-October.
