Roma midfielder Daniele de Rossi: Serie A continuing to improve standards

Published on: 23 July 2017

Roma midfielder Daniele de Rossi admits he can't see any weaknesses in Juventus.

De Rossi has just signed on with the Giallorossi for two more years and is hoping it will be them and not a rival who eventually pips the Old Lady to the League crown in Italy.

“Totti? I always feel him, he'll never be on his own," the veteran midfielder said.

“But we have to move on, he'll face a new situation and we'll also go forward, it's nothing problematic, although things will be different without him. He's a great friend.

“Juve? It'll be a real match and an important part of our preseason. Serie A? Certainly when I started playing in it, the level was high and there's an example of it to my side [pointing to Maldini].

“Still, a lot of quality can also be found in it now. Our football has been growing for the past 3-4 years and the bar has been raised.

“When facing Juventus in the League, you know the real difficulty lies in their group: their defence is strong and their other departments are well-organised.

“They have no weaknesses, so it won't be easy against them.

“Would I be happy if someone else won the title, such as Napoli? Absolutely not. In the case Juve don't win it, I want us to be the team that do.

“It's difficult to face Juve, but we're trying and I want to keep trying for two more years."
