Bojan Krkic optimistic ahead of the second leg of the UEFA Europa League
A.S Roma striker, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Bojan-Krkic-c7794, is confident that his side can overturn the deficit to qualify for the group stages of the UEFA Europa League.
The Giallorossi lost 1-0 to Slovakian side, Slovan Bratislava, in the first-leg of the preliminary round of Europa League. The second leg of the tie will be played at the Stadio Olimpico Rome on August 25th, 2011.
The Spanish striker believes there is lot of work to do to win the tie but he is confident that his team will be too strong for the opposition playing in front of their own fans. The former Barcelona star is not worried about the
result of the first leg and admitted that his teammates have shown a positive approach after the loss.
Talking to the reporters Krkic said, "We have a will to improve, develop and reach important objectives and so the game against Slovan is a chance for all of us to play a good match in front of our fans.
The Roman club was recently taken over by an American group and they have called for a major overhauling of the team. The new owners are huge fans of the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 style of football and want to implement the same at Stadio Olimpico
Rome. However, Krkic, who is a former Catalan, believes that the Giallorossi do not need to copy anyone’s style because they have their own unique method.
“Barcelona's model? Roma does not need to follow any example; we play as Roma.” added the Spanish striker
The 20-year-old was signed in the summer transfer window for an approximately 14-million-Euro fee and he is eagerly waiting for the clash to begin. The young forward is expected to start upfront alongside club skipper, Francesco
Totti.
New http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roma-c31603 manager, Luis Enrique, who worked with the striker during their Catalan days, has regarded him as an important player in his redevelopment process and believes that he can grow himself as one of the best players in the
world.
