Spalletti's Roma keeps winning and this for a 5th consecutive game. This was yet another important game in the race for the final Champions league qualification place (3rd spot). After the game, Spalletti spoke to the press: " Totti ? It wasn't easy but I needed to give signals to my squad.I am here to fix the current problems, this is why Roma hired me. I wanted to play him,but then he said some stuff. Respect? For me, I only want Roma to win. When I first arrived at Roma I said that Totti could have any role he wanted with Roma.He has to decide what he wants to do for the future ".
"If he wants to be like Giggs then he could be like that and stay seated next to me during games. With what he has accomplished here in Rome, he could have any role he wants. If he wants to be more like Nedved then he could be that too. If he wants to keep on playing, then he could play. Roma knows that I am with Francesco and I will listen to what he wants. I have an absolute respect towards him , he is a champion but he cannot say certain things . But anyways people of his entourage told me that it was water under the bridge, so for me it is a closed situation ".
