Roma, Ranieri: 'Abramovich has given Torres to Ancelotti and we do not spend a penny'
Milan and Inter are stronger because they have more money to invest." Claudio Ranieri speaks out after the January market. The Roma coach said in a press conference ahead of the midweek match against Brescia, "Prade said that AC Milan and Inter were in need of reinforcements, and not us? I disagree. They were already stronger than us and have more money to invest, so they went on the market. At the moment we have not got a penny. I hope that this market does not penalize us".
New club to come: "I welcome foreign capital, but with the right strategies for the good of Roma. Then it is clear that money matters, look what Chelsea got my friend Ancelotti ... I do not feel under examination. I do not give more for a new acqusition, I always gave my best for everyone, for myself, for the players and for the team. At 60 years old it is difficult, my advantages and defects should already be known. If I should not be included in the future owner’s projects, I would not take badly because I already have done my bit".
"This is a different league compared to last year. The physical slowdown of Inter made us dream, but now there are more teams involved in the fight for the scudetto, so it is more difficult. Soon Pizarro will come back, a remarkable player, then I hope that Adriano can help us with a few goals in the decisive phase".
Brescia: "In the first leg we lost, but I have found Roma again and I knew we would fight with the others until the end. We must continue to win points".
