After the 3-0 win in the Europa League, Roma prepare to travel to Veron to face one of the most in-form team of the season so far: Hellas Verona. Coach Paulo Fonseca discussed the current squad situation, as the injury woes seems to be in the past for the Giallorossi: "We have to focus on Hellas, they are a solid and rapid team. We must have the same brave approach that we had in the last few games. I like to see my team controlling the game, but we have to improve in the final-third".
"Now I have many options for the line-up, but I prefer to have many options to choose from rather than having many players out injured. Mkhitaryan? He is getting better every day, even though he can't play the full 90 minutes yet". Then the Portuguese touched upon the form of two of the stand-out performers of the last few weeks, Lorenzo Pellegrini and Justin Kluivert: "Lorenzo is a trequartista, an offensive midfielder, and I like to play him on the right wing. Kluivert? When I arrived, Kluivert needed to improve on his defensive efforts. We've spent a lot of time on that and he's progressed a lot, he is a different player now and a smart young lad. He has to keep working to improve even more".
