Gervinho: "Roma" ready to fight for the "Scudetto"

Last summer, from London's "Arsenal" to shining in the "Roma" team, Gervinho believes that his team is capable enough to win the battle for the Italian league title. This season, the African player, who has already scored three times, spoke to FIFA.com journalists about his upcoming plans. "First, the Africa Cup of Nations. Second, Serie A trophies. These are not my priorities, it's a chronological order of victories," said Gervinho. The 27-year-old footballer also said that the reason for Roma's successful game is coach Rudi Garcia. "He is loved by both the fans of the team and every person in the club," added the striker. "He managed to spread his ideas and adapt a playing style based on ball control. Everyone understood his plans and the results are immediately visible." "Looking back, last season's league title probably cost us a lack of substitutes on the bench. This season, everything is possible. Gervinho also said that, despite the failure at the World Cup in Brazil, he considers the Ivory Coast national team the strongest in Africa."
