AS Roma's Norwegian left-back John Arne Riise states: "I did the right thing joining AS Roma. Before joining the club last summer, I thought that the Italian league was the right choice, a great chance to learn a new language, to enjoy the Italian cities and the weather. I was told that this year in Italy the weather was the worst in many years, but it's still ten times better than in England or in Norway. When I arrived in Rome there were 40 degrees, so it was not so easy for me. .... I have very talented team mates here at AS Roma. For example, Totti. I already knew he was a top player with great skills. Now I have the chance to admire him also as a person. .... The Champions League? I think that the game against Fiorentina will be decisive to clinch the fourth place which will enable us to reach CL qualification for next season".
