Pjanic: Signing Gasperini is a great success for Roma and the current results are not surprising

Bosnia-Herzegovina midfielder Pjanic has experience playing for Roma. In an interview with Gazzetta dello Sport, he expressed his feelings and support for his old club.

Regarding Roma temporarily ranking second with Naples in the standings

I am very happy to see Roma's current ranking. I still feel part of the family and really hope it will be an exciting season.

About Gasperini

Roma's current results are not surprising, because their coach is a coach of Gasperini's level. He is an excellent coach who needs to be given full trust and time, and I believe that under his leadership, the team can achieve more in the future. He does a great job on a technical level.

About the Roma team coached by Rudy Garcia in the 2013-14 season

We won the first ten consecutive games, which was an incredible result. Even though Juventus were also very strong, we showed our quality and people still remember the quality of our games back then.

About the similarities between that Roma team and the current Roma

2013 was also Rudi Garcia’s first season coaching Roma. He came here with great enthusiasm and determination. Our pre-season preparations have been done well. Today, Gasperini is doing the right things and signing him is a big success for the club, the players just need to follow his guidance and meet his demands.

About the reasons why the Roma team failed to win the championship that year

Compared to the Juventus I later played for, Roma at that time lacked some calmness. The Bianconeri's internal management is very good, while Roma often makes unnecessary news.

About the ambitions of the Friedkin family

The Friedkin family is trustworthy. They have invested a lot of resources and have already achieved some results, such as the UEFA Champions League in 2022. However, I hope they can continue to fight for the opportunity to participate in the Champions League.

About the Serie A championship situation

I think Naples is one of the strongest contenders, and the team coached by Conte should not be underestimated. Of course, there are strong teams such as Milan, Inter Milan and Juventus, but Roma also have the opportunity to hit a higher position.
