It seems the second coming of Roberto Mancini to the San Siro has not been as successful as one expected. Inter Milan are currently struggling in the Serie A and a failure to qualify for the Champions league would have serious consequences for the Italian manager.

Brendan Rodgers and Roberto Martinez are been considered for the Inter job.

Inter Milan have to finish in the top three to qualify for the Champions league but are currently languishing in fifth place in the table. They are five points behind third placed Roma and are in trouble of failing to qualify for Europe's premier club competition.

In case that particular situation arises, it has been reported that Mancini would be sacked by Inter Milan president Erick Thohir. There have been several replacements being already considered with Ajax coach Frank De Boer being the favorite.

However, out of work Brendan Rodgers and Everton manager Roberto Martinez have also been considered for the job. Rodgers was sacked by Liverpool earlier in the season and Martinez has been under pressure at Goodison Park due to an uninspiring season.

On the other hand, former Manchester City manager Mancini may move to the Premier league if he is sacked by the Italian club.

Roberto Mancini has voiced his frustration over conceding a late penalty goal against Lazio on Sunday. Inter midfielder Filipe Melo was on one end of the act, when he unnecessarily fouled Lazio's Savic in the dying minutes. The challenge resulted in a penalty, which was converted into winning goal for Lazio.

Stupid Melo has ruined Christmas - Mancini

Mancini was furious about losing the game on such fashion and said that they could have been happy going into Christmas if they were able to draw against Lazio.

"We knew that it would be a difficult game, but we did nothing different than in other games. I am disappointed because we gave away the match," former Manchester City coach explained.

"We leveled the scoring and then threw away the game again. Lazio's winning goal was the result of stupidity"

Inter Milan are currently at the helm of Italian Seri A with 36 points, but a bunch of teams including Florienta, Napoli and Juventus are breathing down their nose. If Melo had avoided his reckless act, Inter Milan might have stretched themselves from the chasing pack.
