Roma, who won their first two Serie A matches with 8 goals scored and 0 conceded, welcome Atalanta to the Stadio Olimpico in Round 3. Manager Gian Piero Gasperini attended the pre-match press conference.

How is Paulo Dybala? Are there opportunities in the free agent market? What about Saliou Ciss?
"There's nothing particular wrong with Paulo Dybala, but we'll test him today. The important thing is that he feels confident. We have three games this week, so we need to check if he can play. Regarding the free agent market, I think it's difficult. I don't know what opportunities might arise. I won't expect much. Saliou Ciss has already turned down at least three or four offers. I've already made a decision. He's not in our plans."
What areas does Gianluca Mancini need to improve?
"He's already doing very well. I'm not sure. Did he score a header? There are still some things lacking. Let's wait and see."
Is this the first real test?
"It's more of a test of strength than maturity. In the first 12 rounds, we'll face many strong teams, including Fiorentina. Winning away at Lecce is not easy. Now we have Atalanta, then Inter Milan and Napoli. Plus there's the Champions League. No problem. It's a journey of taking it one game at a time. Tomorrow we'll face a team that is strong and has made a good start. This is a competition for Europe's best."
What do you think about Mateo Retegui?
"We've only played two games, and he's played in both. There's no distinction between starters and substitutes. He still has a lot of room to develop and needs to adapt to our playing style, but he's already shown a lot. He has great growth potential and is a very strong young player."
How are Evan Ndicka and Lorenzo Pellegrini? Regarding rotation between the Atalanta and Torino matches: should we expect changes?
"It's difficult to judge plans in advance. We need to take it one game at a time. The games come thick and fast, but it's hard to predict what will happen on the pitch. We've had no injuries in the first two months. The problem is that once a match starts, someone always gets injured. We can only hope it's not serious, but that's part of sport. You can make plans but you can't be 100% sure. What I can do is rest players with minor discomfort and give opportunities to those in good condition. With long-term injuries, there's nothing we can do. Evan Ndicka has improved a lot. He should be available for the squad, and we'll try him alongside Paulo Dybala. Lorenzo Pellegrini has started team training, but I'm not sure if he'll be ready for the match before the international break."
Does Atalanta's value depend on your efforts? Do you talk about the future when you have dinner with Totti?
"I get along with people I feel comfortable with, with no other intentions. Atalanta has developed over the years. We've surpassed many teams. We've even had chances to win the league. Many direct matchups can determine the league standings, and last season was no exception. The manager has an influence, but the environment is more important. Last season this team was excellent."
What's the midfield hierarchy? Is Éderson now closer to the center of the plan?
"Éderson is already ahead. He's strong, he's developed, and he's more confident. I won't rank players. Martín De Ridder, like the other recent signings, still needs to find his rhythm. They'll play sporadically, but they'll only be fully integrated after the international break. Éderson, Koopmeiners, and Cristante are all solid, but there's no fixed hierarchy. Players in good condition will play, and ultimately everyone will be involved. We've always played with 16 players, and every game is difficult and important. Let's stop distinguishing between starters and substitutes."
