Roma’s Vincenzo Montella has spiced up the capital derby by insisting his crisis hit club are stronger than rivals Lazio.

罗马前锋Vincenzo Montella 对德比充满信心，他认为罗马比死敌拉齐奥强大

The Biancocelesti - currently joint fourth in the standings - have collected five points more than Roma already, but the Italian maintains they are not as good as the Giallorossi.

拉拉俱乐部--现居联赛第四名--已经领先罗马5分，但 在Italian maintains 不如Giallorossi.（?）

"Lazio are in better shape than us right now as we are struggling for results and perhaps lacking the right spirit," he told Studio Sport.

"拉齐奥比我们的形势更有利，而我们正在为成绩而努力，也许是缺少 right spirit"他对
Studio Sport说

"However, I have to be honest and say that they are a weaker side than we are."

"尽管如此，我们是主队，而且他们比我们弱"

The striker also took the opportunity to take a little swipe at Lazio symbol Paolo Di Canio in favour of Giallorossi hero Francesco Totti. （？？？）

"Francesco is a good guy and a great player," the former Empoli and Sampdoria man commented.

"弗朗西斯科是名优秀的球员"这名前恩波利和桑普多利亚球员解释道

"I don’t know Paolo that well. But from what I see, he is someone who provokes, even if he was a good footballer."

"我不是很了解保罗。但就我看来，他很容易被激怒，即便他是一个好的足球运动员"

Roma did start the campaign with genuine hopes of finishing in the top four, yet they have collected only eight points in seven games and lost 1-0 at 10-man Empoli on Sunday.

罗马一直希望在联赛结束时达到前四名，但现在只积8分，而且在上周日的第七轮比赛中0：1输给了10人应战的恩波利

"What are our problems? There is certainly a crisis of results, but the time has arrived for us to give our best and get our campaign back on track," Montella added.

"我们的问题是什么？现在的成绩很糟糕，但现在是我们达到最好和回到应有位置的时间了"

"Our negative streak should not see us change our aim of fighting for fourth spot in the Division." (HAHAHAHAHAHA!)

"我们不利的局面没有打消我们意甲第四名的目标"

Derby Preview
德比前瞻
Posted 21 Oct '05, 13:24 PM

The Rome derby is one of the world’s biggest rivalries and this match is set to be as hotly fought as ever. Both clubs have undergone huge changes recently and fans from the respective halves of the capital will see this game as the real test for their new look teams.

Inevitably the face-off between the two Roman icons Francesco Totti and Paolo Di Canio will draw most attention, but this year the differences between the two sides are much bigger. While the new look Roma still have a host of international stars, Lazio’s blend of youth and experience sees them go into this encounter as reluctant favourites. The Biancocelesti have won all four games at the Stadio Olimpico in 2005-06 and, even though they are technically the away side for this match, they will be hoping to continue that run.

Roma though have lost two of the three they have played in Rome and now find themselves deep into the bottom half the table. Even at this early stage of their campaign, Coach Luciano Spalletti must be starting to feel the pressure, especially as derby games can often prove to be the breaking point for an underachieving tactician.

Spalletti will once again be without the injured Leandro Cufre for this crucial tie as well as Alberto Aquilani. Lazio’s injury problems are more serious with Roberto Baronio, Matteo Sereni, Gaby Mudingayi and Felice Piccolo all missing. However, the influential Aprecido Cesar should finally be fit enough to return after his lengthy recovery.

But whoever plays, the Derby della Capitale is as entertaining for the emotional and often bizarre occurrences going on off the field as it is for the actual football, guaranteeing one of the most spectacular events in the calcio calendar.

Roma (probable): Curci; Panucci, Kuffour, Chivu, Bovo; De Rossi, Perrotta; Mancini, Totti, Taddei; Nonda

Lazio (probable): Peruzzi; Oddo, Stendardo, Cribari, Zauri; Behrami, Dabo, Liverani, Cesar; Di Canio, Rocchi

Ref: Paparesta

Di Cani we are sharpening our arms
Posted 21 Oct '05, 13:56 PM

Paolo Di Canio is waiting for the derby in big apprehension. Taken part in the "Voce della Nord" radio show he said: "We are sharpening our arms and we prepare ourselves with great will to win."
He also praised Giorgio Chinaglia, who participated in the show: "Knowing that one like you, who represents an example of lazialita' for everyone, will follow the derby from Curva Nord, it's an emotion that will last forever."
