Ludovic Giuly has taken another swipe at FC Barcelona and Frank
Rijkaard as he continues to settle into his new life in Serie after
joining AS Roma in the summer.
The former French international left Camp Nou in August and has
chosen to use the media to attack the club where he spent three
years and won two title and the Champions League.
Rijkaard is the main focus of his outbursts and the diminutive
winger has now hit out at the training routines that his former
coach employs.
"With Roma the infrastructure is better the training is more
intense," Giuly stated.
"More care is taken over training and tactic, while at Barça there
is more attention paid to technique."
Giuly was also not impressed with Rijkaard's laid back attitude
towards his players' behaviour and prefers the stricter regime in
place at Roma under Luciano Spalletti.
"Spalletti is always in among the squad, from the first to the last
second, while he puts the responsibility onto the players and gives
them complete freedom," he said.
Barça were criticised last term after the players were able to
decide when they trained and that led to president Joan Laporta
installing a code of conduct at the club.
