Roma, against Tottenham Claudio Ranieri wants the best

Thusì Claudio Ranieri, Roma coach, spoke in a press conference on the eve of the Europa League match against Tottenham: "I am serene becauseé the performance in Naples did not displease me. We lost because of an indecision but the team fought, looked for a draw, the performance was there. What I ask è to give everything 100%”.

“The new coach doesn&#39t have a magic wand, he doesn&#39t come and change everything; we are a sick person for whom the doctor is looking for the right antidote. But the sick person is reacting, I see them the players who are willing, I am moderately positive, I don&#39t expect who knows what but we have to start putting in our minds the will to fight until the last second".

And just talking about the opponent Ranieri emphasizes how it is "in an excellent moment, playing the kind of soccer that I love because it excites the fans. È a team that grinds out play, magnificent, they won’t let us breathe and we will have to be shrewd and smart. The coach is doing an excellent job".

To those who ask if the Europa League è more of a hindrance or a stimulus, he replies that "è a very high stimulus. I have not had friendly matches to evaluate all the options I have available to me and I value every match". Finally a thought about Dybala who "è trained, he is not suffering from any pain so he will decide tomorrow. One thing è having him and one thing è not having him, he can è always invent something. È a guy very attached to the team", he concludes.
