Luciano Spalletti explains why he picked Francesco Totti from the start in a 4-0 victory over Crotone. “A great performance.”
The Giallorossi needed to recover from a slender defeat to Fiorentina on Sunday evening and did so in style.
“It’s a good victory, achieved with a great performance,” Spalletti told Mediaset Premium.
“We were more determined in attack and that led us to finish off our chances more. We risked getting a bit bottle-necked at the start, as everyone wanted to attack, but we need to improve these aspects.”
Totti turns 40 in six days, but was given his first Serie A start in precisely a year.
“I chose Totti because I expected it to be a difficult game to break down, as Crotone were going to defend solidly. With his one-touch passes, he always manages to create something.
“I would like the rest of the team to learn something from Totti and take him as an example.”
The Coach was asked if he is any closer to a contract renewal with Roma.
“Results are needed. We cannot afford to come sixth or seventh here.”
