Roma will host Napoli tomorrow following the international break. The giallorossi are focused on staying in the race for a Champions League spot, during the pre game press conference, their current manager Claudio Ranieri was asked what he expects to see from his players on Saturday:”They’re all great players. I expect to see a response that shows real character. The fans’ relationship with the team is vital. It always has been and I’ve been through that. The fans can be an extra gear for us and I hope they understand the moment we are in right now and get behind us”
Ranieri was asked about some individual players:”Olsen is a great goalkeeper, I liked him and had kept tabs on his progress even before he joined Roma. He has my full confidence. Everyone wants to play and that’s great news for me, but I don’t want to risk any injury setbacks. Manolas has told me he wants to play- but I still need to weigh everything up. De Rossi and Kolarov? Should I have both of them available it would be very important for me and a joy for our fans. The issue between Dzeko and El Shaarawy? These are things that happen in families, so everything is all set”.
