Ashley Cole insists AS Roma can win the Scudetto this season. The former Chelsea fullback is in his first season in Serie A.
"Roma can definitely win the league. We have talented players in the locker room and in addition there is the right mentality," enthused Cole.
"We are sure that if we do not find officials that give penalties for fouls outside the box, we can win the championship. We're very confident."
Cole continued: "The poses during the US tour? It was very hot and I was on the sidelines. Then the players entered field, they asked me to come closer and as I moved the photographer took his shot, so I ended up in that weird pose!
"But I have many friends here, don't worry (laughs)."
