Inter Milan coach Roberto Mancini admits they're not at their best after yesterday's 1-1 draw with Sampdoria.

"We are in good shape, but every now and then one can drop points. You can't win all the time," said Mancini. "This was a tough game after the Champions League and we fought for this draw. One has to say this is a difficult time for us."

Inter face Roma on Wednesday and Mancini added: "A very important week awaits us. However, up until now we are undefeated in the League and this is not a fact to be underestimated."

Hernan Crespo struck for Inter and his coach also said: "Hernan's goal can boost his confidence, as usually when he scores there's no stopping him."
