Roberto Mancini is refusing to pay attention to the Serie A table at present but says Inter must believe they can fight for the title.
Inter head coach Roberto Mancini says his side must consider itself a Serie A title contender despite the season being just three games old.
Mancini's men moved to the top of the table with their third 1-0 victory of the campaign in Sunday's Milan derby, thanks to Fredy Guarin's fierce second-half strike.
While Mancini accepts that the current standings have little importance, he maintains Inter's current form should give his side confidence as it looks to win its first league title since 2010.
