After the successful conclusion to the season when beating Genoa at home 3-2 which meant direct qualification to next seasons Champions League, Roma’s new captain Daniele De Rossi spoke with Premium Sports and Sky Sport explaining what the team needs to do in order to chase the league title next season:
“We need the team to not be dismantled, that we continue to work with a great coach as we have this year because those ahead of us will remain strong and even those behind us will be strengthened.”
De Rossi was the asked if the win against Genoa was the last game with Luciano Spalletti in charge of the Giallorossi to which he replied: “I expect him to say if he’s leaving or staying, I’ve seen many people who are happy about Spalletti’s departure. I wish that they are happy on the 28th of May next year too. I have my doubts that the next coach will notch up 88 points, today Spalletti was less important because of Francesco Totti’s celebrations.”

Join us De Rossi with Spalletti – a coach you clearly like! De Rossi played like a general yesterday and was superb in central midfield demonstration age isn’t an issue! Having him next to Gagliar would be awesome!
Yes de rossi is remarkable
He’s finally il capitano of Roma, he ain’t gonna leave
True… I watched the Roma vs Genoa game and you cut really sense his love and his great feelings for Roma when he scored his goal. And as you said, with Totti away he will be the new captain of his beloved Roma and in 2 years time he´ll have the same farewell as Totti did – I mean both were world class, Totti more known because he scored goals, but both won the World Cup for Italy! Now´s not the time for a 33 year old to change club, even though I´d love him to do so 😉
Come to inter Spaletti. You have your crew ready lol
