Roma's Baptista: Real Madrid didn't understand me

Julio Baptista is confident he can rediscover his best form at Roma.

The Brazil international said: "Real Madrid failed to understand my quality, there were lots of very good players who could play in my position.

"I've spoken to (Roma coach) Luciano Spalletti and he told me that I can play in two or three roles that are very important for the team and I will be very close to the opposition, both on the right and left."
