Roma, Di Francesco: "We will not look for excuses, I can't be happy with our performance"

A defeat in the Champions League to Shakhtar Donetsk followed by a 0-2 loss to Milan at the Stadio Olimpico, Sunday ended a rough week for Roma. After the match, their coach Eusebio Di Francesco analyzed the Roma's performance: "We must ask for more, otherwise we will be looking for excuses and justifications. The team concept is fundamental to my style of football, we failed to keep attention during the match and we played below our ability. Milan played well but we needed to be more aware of the play of Suso and Cutrone, which we prepared for during the week. I can't be satisfied with the play of the team, our recent results and tonight's match. But it's not fair to place the blame on someone, we are going to be doing internal analysis and we will assume an attitude of greater responsibility. We are training with high intensity, but we are not being successful at maintaining a high mental level in the match."
