the Scudetto with Roma this season.
Szczesny, who is on a season-long loan from Arsenal, has
played in 13 of the club's 17 games in the league this
season, as well as all six Champions League group games.
The 25-year-old has kept five clean sheets, with three of
those coming in his last three appearances for the Serie A
club.
Roma started the season strongly but a run of poor results
just before the winter break saw them drop to fifth, but are
still just four points off league-leaders Inter.
"We want to start the year well and make up ground on the
teams ahead of us, aiming for the Scudetto," Szczesny told
Sky Sport Italia.
"We’re still in the race and that is our objective. The league
is very balanced and the fact that there are five teams within
four points of each other is interesting.
"Every week we can recover points on those in front of us."
Szczesny also backed coach Rudi Garcia, saying he is the
right man to lead Roma forward.
"It's normal that when you go through difficult times, such
as the one experienced by Roma in the last month, you talk
and you immediately put into question the position of the
coach," he said.
"Garcia, however, has always been working hard on the
ground to get out of this moment, putting in every training
all his efforts, his dedication and his determination, which
broadcasts daily to the group.
"And he's 100 per cent the right person for Roma."
