What They're Saying
AS Roma striker Adem Ljajic (via Football Italia): "We just focus on ourselves. If we're playing well, then we're afraid of no one, either ahead of us or behind us. Chievo are a dangerous team. They want to stay in Serie A and they need points."
Chievo Verona Rolando Maran (via Football Italia): "We had to rediscover the spirit we had since I arrived on this bench and to prove the defeat to Empoli was an isolated incident. Against Milan, we ran hard, worked and sacrificed for the good of the team. The lads did very well."
