Claudio Ranieri's press conference on the eve of Bologna-Roma

 What do you expect from Bologna?

"We have seen that like us they are not looking too much to the club's problems but we are very focused on the field. They're having a great championship, and although they are affected by flu and disqualifications, I expect a tough match.

What about Perrotta

"He was injured in the goal against Fiorentina, and then he had knee problems. He is an example that every club wants to have. He is excellent, a professional who trains, is willing and talks little".

Menez is a winning bet; could he become the next Totti?

"I did not win any bets. If you do not have talent you do not emerge. He has untapped potential, has given only 50 percent. I hope he can improve, I often speak to him and he agrees with me. He is very different from the captain and I keep them both tight".

Will there be a turn over in attack? What does Totti think?

"He was good on Sunday, let alone now. He has recovered from the suspension, is well and tomorrow I will decide."

How is Juan?

"He's fine; he made a mistake but has come back to the same Juan".

"Inter are already the team to beat; now they have Pazzini. He has filled the gap left by the departure of Balotelli. Pazzini can make a difference".

Was the match in Turin the top away game?

"I do not know, we won without our fans, but now I'm concentrating on Bologna. A team that is fresh, whilst we have had little time to recover."

In Turin, as well as victory, there was the performance

"I do not know if there is prejudice around my teams. In my eyes, after the game, I can see what we did wrong but in the long run I only see the beauty of what Roma produces. And if there is someone who does not see it, he is right ... I am proud of what the team is doing".

"Let's see, I do not accept at face value. God will provide. Proposals or not I would accept Roma. Roma is Roma".

Could turn over be a weapon more? The sooner you take a team to the max the sooner you go down, with a quality team.

"I'm sure, when you have a large team it is up to the coach to put the players more in shape, reading the nuances. The good thing is that the boys have learned it is not to get burned out at the end of competitions. This is a wonderful group; we need to congratulate those who have built it over the years. They are all great. The streak of victories? My vanity is very small, I am happy when we win, especially for the fans”.

"I wish there were. You can not predict the future but we will try to shift the balance towards us".

Are you at the top?

"I hope not, because the sooner you take a team to the max the sooner you go down, with a quality team I have many choices but we are not at the top, not yet
