The Rossoneri boss not undermining the strength of the Giallorossi; reveals his hunger to take all three points from the clash at San Siro.

side a tough time.
While talking to Milan Channel, Allegri said:
“Roma? I hope we win tomorrow. It will not be an easy match - the Giallorossi have changed their way of playing, they’ve defended much better in the last two games too, where they won 1-0 without conceding a goal.”
“They hold possession very well and when not in possession they are improving. They are always dangerous going forward and tomorrow [Francesco] Totti should return. We’ll have to play a very good game, both from a technical point
of view and in terms of tension and pace.” Added the Rossoneri boss
Allegri believes that http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roma-c31603 and Barcelona have a similar style of playing the game, and the match will give them an ideal opportunity to prepare for the Champions League clash. He admitted that the Roman club is not at the same
