Roma sees itself behind Inter in revamped Serie A
Posted: Friday Jul 21, 2006 11:46 AM
CASTELROTTO, Italy (AP) -AS Roma could find itself battling Inter
Milan for the Serie A title this season with the other big clubs
facing penalties and relegation.
Coach Luciano Spalletti still sees his club struggling to keep up
with Inter.
"It's tough to talk about goals because there are strong teams,
like Inter. They're talking about acquiring (Luca) Toni and (Zlatan)
Ibrahimovic, without giving away Adriano and (Julio Ricardo) Cruz,"
Spalletti said Friday. "That makes it tough to play even with them."
Perennial contender AC Milan will start the Serie A season with a
15-point penalty for a corruption scandal, while three clubs -
Juventus, Fiorentina and Lazio - were relegated with penalties to
Serie B.
Roma and Inter were not involved, so have been turned into the main
contenders for the Serie A title.
Roma's team is based around three members of Italy's winning World
Cup squad: midfielders Simone Perrotta and Daniele De Rossi, and
playmaker Francesco Totti.
After undergoing left leg surgery in February, Totti struggled with
his form at the World Cup. He and the other Azzurri members are still
on vacation and were allowed to skip Roma's summer training camp.
The team hopes Totti is back to full form by the time the season
starts on Aug. 26-27.
Striker Vincenzo Montella is also trying to regain his form from a
back injury.
"We're looking for a striker. It's becoming difficult to take a
striker from Juve, Milan or Inter, because that would break the
balance of things," Spalletti said, adding that the club is
interested in Udinese's Vincenzo Iaquinta and Lecce's Mirko Vucinic.
"Iaquinta is a muscular player who uses his strength, Vucinic is
a more technical player who relies on ball possession. What I'm
interested in though is getting Montella back," Spalletti said.
Midfielder Damiano Tommasi announced last week that he was leaving
the club after 10 seasons.
"It would be tough for him to change his mind, although I have the
feeling that he made the decision too quickly," Spalletti said.
"I'm upset, because with people like him around it makes everything
easier."
Spalletti sounded excited about the squad's new French central
midfielder Ricardo Faty.
Roma signed the 19-year-old from Strasbourg earlier this month and
he is considered as a possible replacement for Olivier Dacourt, who
has moved to Inter.
"Faty seems like an interesting player. But you need to give young
players time to gain experience," the coach said.

Roma cautious over title chances
By Nadia Carminati - Created on 21 Jul 2006
Roma coach Luciano Spalletti responded with caution to suggestions
his side will start this season as one of the favourites to claim
the depleted Scudetto.
This summer's unprecedented Serie A match-fixing trial has seen
Italian football shaken to its core, with last season's high-flyers
Juventus and Milan handed severe penalties.
The Old Lady will start the forthcoming campaign in Serie B, while
Milan are handicapped by a 15-point deduction and exclusion from the
UEFA Champions League.
The likes of Roma and Internazionale appear best placed to capitalise
on the huge upheaval which has also seen the Giallorossi's rivals for
a European place last term, Fiorentina and city rivals Lazio, demoted.
"We are aware that we could have a big chance next season and we will
do our best," said Spalletti.
"But Inter are ahead of us at the moment, while Palermo and Udinese
are also good sides."
"It will be a challenge just to do as well as we did last season."
To that end, Spalletti is determined to bolster his squad further
this summer, with the recruitment of striker Mirko Vucinic reported
to be his number one objective.
"We will sign a forward," added Spalletti. "Vucinic? He has
characteristics like Vincenzo Montella and we need a striker with
Vincenzo Iaquinta's characteristics."
"But I do like the Serbia & Montenegro player."
