Roma manager Rudi Garcia has praised the attacking nature of modern Italian soccer.

Serie A has historically been known for being defensive, but clubs like Roma, Napoli and Fiorentina have been scoring freely this season.

"There's always been a culture of defending in Italy, but it's good we're seeing more goals. It makes a better show," said Garcia.

"Goals are important but not conceding helps too. I like how teams are scoring more than before in Serie A."

Roma is currently top of the table with 23 points.

"We want to bring this club and the city of Rome to the very top. In our own small way, we'll try our hardest," he added.
