Juric’s Roma continue their preparations for the first Europa League fixture of the new season.
Ivan Juric will get to make his coaching debut on the European stage on Thursday night when Roma are scheduled to face Athletic Club.
In the meantime, footage from Roma’s training sessions suggests the Croatian technician is determined to up the rhythm of the team’s play and help the players further improve their physical condition.
In the latest video released by the club, Juric can be heard telling his players repeatedly, “When we start feeling tired, we keep going, we overcome it. When you feel fatigue, go on, take it an extra step forward.”
Thus, Juric is trying to change Roma’s mentality, deviating a bit from De Rossi’s focus on building from the back and instead placing most of the attention on the tempo and aggressiveness in pressing the opponent.
