Gasperini: We have only played 11 league games so far, and regardless of winning the championship, Roma’s scoring ability is improving

November 23rd In the 12th round of Serie A, Roma will challenge Cremonese away from home. Roma coach Gasperini attended the pre-match press conference.

Before this round of league games, Roma were tied at the top of the Serie A standings. Maybe you can create a miracle (to win the championship)?

I think this is a team that has put in a lot of hard work and all the players have maintained a good mentality and spirit. We are on the right path, but we have only played 11 league rounds so far. It is too early to talk about so-called miracles. The team has improved on a technical level and we have shown a very high level, otherwise it would not be possible to be in this position. Of course, there is room for improvement in everything. From a technical perspective, we are working together better than we were a few weeks ago, and the team is working together better overall. Everyone has room for improvement and that's what we work towards.

Ferguson has not scored a goal since joining Roma this summer. He returned from injury this round.

He is a very young player, from another country, with different professional experiences, so he needs to adapt and take some time to integrate into the team. When I said he was back in good training and put him on the pitch, he got injured. But one has to be patient with these young people.

What is the physical condition of Angelino, Dybala and other injured Roma players?

Angelino has begun to resume training. Although he is only training alone, he is doing well. We will make a decision based on the team doctor's report. Dybala and Leon Bailey are also training separately and I think they have improved a lot, but they still need official clearance from the team doctor.

The national team players have also returned to the team.

The national team players returned to the team one day earlier than usual. Most of them participated in the game. From this Thursday, we all gathered as a team and had two good training sessions. We want to continue the good form before the league break, although the break may bring some uncertainties.

How has Rome done so far?

We always strive to improve. It must be noted that in the past few weeks, almost all our forwards have been out injured, so it is normal to encounter some difficulties. I think in the last month our ability to create chances has improved and therefore the goals have increased. When I say that the whole team must be involved in the attack, Mancini's assist for Çelik's goal in the last round of the league is an example of this. We will also try our best to bring out the characteristics of the team tomorrow. Nothing is accidental and in the past we were almost certain to lose if we were behind - except for the comeback win against Fiorentina. But as our scoring ability improves, we can overcome even adverse situations. This is a process of growth.
