Roma, Spalletti: "I have no expectations on Strootman ban. But I hope that they don't suspend Rüdiger as well."

Roma will face Romanian side Astra Giurgiu in the final group stage match of the Europa League, a group where Roma has already clinched the top spot. Their coach Luciano Spalletti spoke to the media ahead of that match: "I expect that Roma's mentality can grow. We want to become a team who only thinks of winning when they take the field. We must be a team who give their all every match." on Vermaelen, making his "new" debut: "He's been selected, I've seen him become ready and so he is ready to play from the start. From those who haven't gotten the most playing time I expect to see a good response." And lastly a few comments on the suspension of Strootman after the derby:"We must await the verdict of the appeal, but at this point anything is possible. If you take one thing out of it I hope that Lulic isn't suspended, because then they might get Rüdiger for having faked selling socks in Stuttgart."
