Saturday September 11th, 2004 Paul Stalteri looks forward to the Champions League

Werder Bremen is travelling to Milan on Monday as they prepare for their first  Champions League match versus Inter Milan.  The game will be played Tuesday September 14th at 8:45pm (local time).

For Paul Stalteri the Champions League has always been a personal goal of his, and he looks forward to playing against the elite teams of Europe.

After a disappointing start the the Bundesliga season, Paul Stalteri believes that the team needs to stay focused while working together to achieve their goals. "We definitely need some work at adapting to the changes from last year, however I believe that the team along with the coach are willing to work hard until we are back on track".

The competition in the Champions League will definitely be a challenge for Werder Bremen.  "Everyone who was a member of the Championship team last year knew that this year would not be easy, but Champions League football will be a good experience for our team."  

Paul Stalteri is looking forward to visiting to the San Siro on Tuesday.  "The San Siro is a historical stadium and Inter Milan is a massive club.  We need to play a very disciplined game and work to get a good result."
