Aquilani believes AC Milan, Inter Milan and Roma are better than Juventus, following their 2-1 win over Bari.
“We cannot be a Scudetto team a week and a few days after not being good enough for the Europa League,” Aquilani told Il Corriere dello Sport.
“This is a great club that has won everything, but the reality is that you can also struggle against Bari. These are no longer the times of Zinedine Zidane or Pavel Nedved.
“The Scudetto? Lets not joke. Milan, Inter and Roma are better than us by a long way. Realistically fourth place is our objective.”
