AS Roma captain Francesco Totti is wary of talking up their title chances this season.
Speaking after scoring the winner at AC Milan, Marco Borriello said there is no reason why Roma shouldn't be considered title challengers.
Adriano supported that opinion, but his captain is perhaps mindful of past disappointments.
"I would prefer not to talk about the Scudetto," he said. "It's still too soon and it brings bad luck.
"We have always fought right until the end for the Scudetto in recent years only to be left disappointed.
"Sure, it's great to have won at Milan's home ground - that of the League leaders - but even if the wheel seems to have turned in our favour, there is still a long way to go."
