Roma attacker Gervinho says playing in Italy has taught him a lot, particularly about the tactical side of the game.

The Ivorian joined the Giallorossi at the beginning of last season from Arsenal, and has since become one of Coach Rudi Garcia’s key men.

“I’ve learned a lot in Italy, and not just in terms of football,” the winger told Sky.

“I feel good here in Rome, and I get on well with my teammates. I have a peaceful life.

“Italian football and English football are different.

“I feel good here in Rome, and I get on well with my teammates. I have a peaceful life.

“Italian football and English football are different.

“I learned a lot in the Premier League, where it’s difficult to play against the smaller sides if you’re a big club, because they play very quick football and really put you under pressure.

“In Italy it’s the opposite. It’s very tactical, and more complicated if you don’t know the style.”
