Paredes: I feel better with every game

Paredss

Leandro Paredes admits he is feeling more comfortable in the heart of the Roma midfield with every passing game, after he scored in Roma's 4-1 win over Palermo on Sunday.

The Argentine midfielder grabbed his first goal since returning to the club after a loan spell at Empoli, as Roma moved within two points of Juventus at the top of the Serie A standings.

“It was important to win today to narrow the gap to Juventus,” the Argentine midfielder said following the game. “We're on the right track and now we just have to continue down it.

“There was a slice of luck about my goal but the important thing was getting the victory. We achieved the three points by playing well.”

“We celebrated like this on Thursday as well. We both scored this evening so we were able to do it again.”

You played well in attack and defence...

“For sure, the more you play, the more confidence you gain and things get better. My team-mates and the coach show lots of faith in me and I'm becoming more and more calm.”
