Inter manager Luciano Spalletti spoke ahead of his sides big game against Roma this weekend in Serie A.

He was asked by Premium Sport about his new signing from Barcelona, Rafinha: “The fact remains that he hasn’t played for a while. To give him the responsibility of making the whole team react would send out the wrong message. It must be his team mates that set him on the right path so that he can bring quality to the team.” Spalletti looking to take the pressure off his new signing straight away allowing him to train calmly without the weight of expectation weighing him down

When asked his thoughts about the winter break he replied: “it can be good especially when it comes at a time when nothing is going right for you as what happened with us before the break. The players have been working in the right manner and I am hopeful we will play a good game against Roma.”
