They are hoping to ride the wave of enthusiasm from a morale-boosting 2-1 Europa League victory away to Feyenoord.

“It’s great to see Rudi Garcia so motivated. He’s really hungry to win at Roma and with Roma.”

The Coach has occasionally relegated their ‘Future Captain’ to the bench, but DDR accepts it.
