MILANELLO - Speaking in exclusive to the Milan Channel, Alessandro
Nesta reassured about his physical condition. He said: 'I have not
reached my top form yet. Now we'll see what to do on Thursday, if
I'd better continue on working here or travel to Rome and play to
find sooner.'

It won't be easy to face Roma but Nesta promises Milan will give it
their best shot. He said: 'Roma will be looking to take their
revenge, there is a strong rivalry between Rome and Milan, between
the North and the South of Italy(between Nesta and Totti). It will
be hard, butwe will do our best.'

This season Milan have conceded only three goals away from home,
considering both Serie A and Champions League. The Rossonero half-
back admitted: 'We have done well so far, but all our effort will be            
meaningful only if we win. It's difficult to keep the pace with the
big teams but we are a big team too and really want to do well.'
