Cassano scoffs at Serie A success in Europe: They'll all be eliminated

Former Italy star Antonio Cassano has dismissed the success of Serie A teams in Europe.

AC Milan, Inter Milan and Napoli are into the Champions League quarterfinals, as are Roma and Juventus in the Europa League and Fiorentina in the Conference.

A lot of the newspapers here are saying that we're rediscovering the defensive side of the game here, but I think that's bull****," declared Cassano.

It's like we're playing football from ten years ago, you can watch brilliant football elsewhere but not here. Things are going well this season, but not in the long term.

We play with a low tempo, no rhythm to the game, it's just catenaccio with no ideas.

Roma, Inter, and Juventus will get eliminated by weaker teams on paper.

Inter had to be very lucky to get past Porto, they played terribly, they played like a**."
