Paolo talks about what has happened in Serie A so far this season and he briefly talks about his helping out Francesco Totti in his autobiography, Un Capitano. There he talks about how his relationship with Roma fans was very similar to that of Diego Maradona with Napoli fans back in the late 80s and early 90s.

Condò talks about how this season has been in Italian football and what needs to be done in the league in order for other teams to be competitive against Juve. He also looks into what teams like Roma and Napoli are doing to challenge.

Totti's autobiography is scheduled to come out in the month of June in Spanish and it has already been published in Italian.
