Inter Milan coach Claudio Ranieri says he'll only select Wesley Sneijder against Marseille if he feels it will give them an edge.

Ranieri admitted this week he felt somewhat obliged to field Sneijder even when it was perhaps not the best thing for the team.

"Sneijder is an important player, but there's no point trying to interpret my words. Just wait and see what my choices are. I brought all the available players to Marseille and they are all important, so I'll make my decisions without pressure.

"I do not feel anxious, as that really isn't in my personality. Will this be the turning point? All year we've been looking for that match, but I fear Serie A will be made of peaks and troughs for the rest of the campaign.

"Now we are in the Champions League. This side needs to feel the adrenaline of the big occasion, so I expect to see a team that is alive, strong and convinced of its abilities."
