Post
๐ฐ Roma coach Gian Piero Gasperini has set out a three-year Scudetto timeline while keeping expectations in check.
๐ Key points
๐๏ธ Gasperini gave an interview to Corriere della Sera.
๐ "Our plan was to get there in three years. We wouldn't mind getting there sooner."
๐ Roma are joint top with Inter and Lazio on 13 points after five rounds.
๐ Asked about a future Atalanta return, he said he "hasn't sold the house".
๐
Victory at Como on 11 October would be his 300th Serie A win.
๐ What happened
๐๏ธ Now in his second season at Roma, Gasperini told Corriere della Sera: "Our plan was to get there in three years. We wouldn't mind getting there sooner, but we're aware the road is long."
๐ข He stressed that football has unpredictable ups and downs, signalling he will not get carried away with a share of first place. Roma have not won the title since 2001.
๐ Asked whether he could one day go back to Atalanta, the club he led for years, he left the door open, saying he "hasn't sold the house".
๐ By the numbers
โข Roma: 13 points from five games, level with Inter and Lazio
โข Donyell Malen leads Serie A with six goals
โข Last league title: 2001
โข A win at Como would be Gasperini's 300th in Serie A
๐ญ Why it matters
Roma, chasing a first title in 25 years, now have a public timeline. The trip to Como on 11 October has both the title race and Gasperini's 300th win at stake.
