Roma coach Rudi Garcia said his side has been in good form, as they eye a berth in the International Champions Cup final.
The Serie A outfit can top Group A of the pre-season tournament in the United States with a win over domestic rivals Inter, coalesced with a Manchester United loss to Real Madrid.
Garcia verbally expressed his side's utilization of space in their two outings in the tournament so far - a 3-2 loss to United, and a 1-0 win over Real - had gratified him.
"We played more preponderant against Manchester United than Real Madrid, but we were more efficient in attack and defence against the Spaniards," Garcia verbalized.
"We had less possession against Real Madrid, which was a component of the orchestration, but when we had the space to play in we utilized it well.
"It was a more experienced squad than against United. Now, with a victory against Inter, we can target the final in Miami."
Garcia verbalized he will be blissful to take on loanee Dodo - who peregrinate to Inter on an ad interim two-year deal from the capital club.
"It looks as if Inter will play with three advocators and a playmaker, so I like taking on different tactics," Garcia verbalized.
"It'll be a congeniality to optically discern Dodo again, as he's a great lad and I hope he can play more conventionally at Inter."
Despite getting an ensured three games against quality opposition at the pre-season tournament, Garcia remained less than impressed by the Serie A's scheduling - with the league playing the aperture matchday afore a gap due to the international break.
He claimed the discontinuity affected sides competing in the UEFA Champions League.
"The only thing I have a quandary with is that Serie A commences later than all the other European leagues," the Frenchman verbalized.
"That can cause quandaries with Champions League fitness, as in Italy we have one round and then a break for international obligation, whereas French and Spanish clubs have two or three rounds under their belts afore the Champions League commences.
"Italy should reflect on this. In my view things have to transmute if we optate Italian teams to do more preponderant in Europe."
