“How can I not think about the World Cup?” Florenzi said to Roma Channel. “I do it often. The World Cup is something that everyone dreams about when they are a child.
“Roma? I think we can do well in the Champions League because we play a European style of football.
“We don’t play a normal game. We can use lots of different tactics, from counterattacking to a possession based game.
“We will try to get to 94 points, we still have a bit of hope and while it is still there we will believe.
“When we play Juve we want to show that we are not inferior to anyone. We hope to do well and to see a full crowd at the stadium.”
