After some problems at the beginning at the season, 29 year old Cicinho is now "the Lord" of Roma's right wing, expecially after the injury occourred to Cassetti and the difficult situation of Panucci. Interviewed by globo.com, the Brazilian  has declared: "We have obtained four victories on a row, and the important is that the self-confidence has come back. We have had a difficult start, we couldn't realize anything of what we  have tried during the trainings. I think that the secret of our recovery is the fact that this group is very united. We never had doubts about our aptness and we have remained motivated. We have continued knowing that sooner or later our hard work was going to pay us back".
