Coach Rudi Garcia insists Roma are “united” but confesses “we have to win” against BATE Borisov.
Sporting director Walter Sabatini backed the tactician yesterday, declaring “If Garcia goes down, we go down together”.
“Those statements demonstrate what we’ve already said,” Garcia noted in his pre-match Press conference.
“We’re united, and we’re not alone in fighting for our objectives. The team is there, and in a period where the wheel is not turning the club has expressed their solidarity.
“The quality of a group and of men can be seen in this situation, where we’ve also had bad luck. We have to win, the talking should always be done on that green rectangle [the pitch].”
A win against BATE tomorrow will guarantee a place in the Last 16, and Garcia calls for backing from the fans.
“There is some possibility Castan will start tomorrow. Also in the other positions there could be some variations from at Torino.
“We have solutions at our disposal, even though we have some injuries. Tomorrow we’ll need a team that gives everything, winning is the only objective. A goal that we will reach on the wings of our desire.
“We’re stronger when Pallotta is with us. We’re stronger with the fans behind us. I expect everyone to be pulling in the same direction. Tomorrow we’ll show that our hunger for victory has no equal.
"Tomorrow is like a derby, you dont play it, you win it.”
