Servette manager Rene Weiler spoke to the media on the eve of his side’s encounter with Roma at Stadio Olimpico.

“Mourinho? He is a coach with a lot of experience and success,” told reporters when asked about the Special One. “What I can say is that I have a lot of respect for Mourinho, in the end he is an opponent.”

“It will be important for us to play hard until the end tomorrow. I want us to treat this like an apprenticeship.”

“We are still looking to have balance in midfield, because we need more security. We will have to play well throughout the match to avoid the dangers Roma will pose for us.”
