Roma defender Juan has shaken off his injury problems and is relishing a Champions League last 16 second leg against Arsenal.
The Brazilian star has been sidelined for a while with a thigh injury and missed the first leg at the Emirates Stadium.
But Juan has returned to full training and he is looking forward to playing a part against the Gunners.
“The Champions League is always a special competition,” the talented stopper enthused.
“Now we are preparing for the second leg against Arsenal at the Stadio Olimpico - it's a game we cannot afford to fail in.
“We must win and get through to the quarter-finals of the competition.
“It is possible to keep fighting on all fronts and to triumph in the League and the Cup.
“The important thing is to keep our will to win and stay united as a group. We have always been a close-knit group in victory or defeat.”
