After Roma tied against Fiorentina, their sporting director Monchi said, "We are asking for more respect for the referees." Today, the Spaniard spoke again about the topic during a meeting about VAR and made clear and reiterated his confidence in the Italian refs: "When I arrived in Italy I always said to be in love with the Italian referees, I believe the Italians are the top. I am also a defender of VAR and I believe that in the beginning part of the season the record has been positive, there have been some mistakes, but we all make mistakes. I also believe that meetings like today are good so everyone can discuss their opinions. I saw that the referees were open to listening to the requests of the clubs and I think this is very important. Marotta to inter? He won a lot with Juventus, him remaining in Serie A would be a positive thing for Italian football. It is better for everyone if the great professionals remain here."
