Capello rules out Roma Sunday 18 July, 2004
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Juventus boss Fabio Capello has ruled out former club Roma as a realistic Scudetto contender.
"There will be three clubs in the title race, the two Milanese sides and ourselves," stated the tactician.
"Milan have strengthened an already strong side but they do have some weak points. That is where we must attack them."
Capello already feels that Roma are out of the running, so what if Antonio Cassano leaves for Real Madrid?
"That would be a great loss for the capital side but it would enrich Cassano and therefore Italian football," he noted.
Turning to his present club, the tactician was confident about the season ahead despite a minimal number of signings so far.
"We have our plans but we are certainly not going to make them public," said the tactician. "We know who we want and how we want them. I have great faith in the club.
"Anyway, our first signing was David Trezeguet. When looking for players it is sometimes wiser to look at what you have already got.
"Buying players for the sake of buying is useless because a new signing needs to make a difference to the side."
Another individual that Capello seems to be building his new Juve side on is Fabrizio Miccoli.
"He is a real talent," added the former Real Madrid boss. "I want him to perform how he did at Perugia two years ago because that is the Miccoli I remember."
Capello was again asked about Alex Del Piero who resumed training on Friday after Euro 2004 duty.
"Del Piero is not even 30. He still has plenty to give to the world of Italian football. Differences between Totti and Del Piero? I won’t get into this. They are simply two great players."
