In the run up to the Super Cup match against Roma that will be held tomorrow in Milan, Rafa Benitez, said in a press conference:

"We're happy to play against Roma tomorrow, we're working well. It's always difficult to start a new season after a World Cup because players come back late, but we have worked well during the summer. It's obvious that we have to think one game at a time, and then think about the next one and win as much as we can."

"They are a strong team with a good coach and quality players; it's a final, so it will be difficult," he said. "We played well against Juve and Milan in the TIM Trophy and we're looking to see a similar team tomorrow. The first thing I want to do is win this trophy, then the next one. But the players are key. They have won and they want to keep winning."

"José Mourinho said I will not win like him? This club has won a lot in five years and it's the players who are most important. The market? The club is working and I am doing it on the pitch. My task is to improve the team."
