Spalletti bites back at Roma

Inter boss Luciano Spalletti aimed a few sideswipes at his old club Roma, Eusebio Di Francesco and Francesco Totti.

Spalletti held his Press conference this afternoon and was asked about comments made by Roma Coach Di Francesco, referring to teams ahead of them in the table who barely had a shot on goal.

“There are other sides ahead of Roma too,” noted Spalletti. “If he was referring to us, and it wouldn’t be the first time, I say that I agree with him.

“Roma could’ve been much higher up the table, as in previous years they would’ve been challenging for the Scudetto along with Juventus and Napoli. I assume that’s what he’s referring to.”

This week, Totti also reiterated he disliked the way Spalletti handled his last season and warned there would “never” be a clarification between them.

“Totti expressed himself unequivocally. I was always open to him and always will be. If that’s the way he feels, then I’m sorry, but it marks a definitive point. There’s nothing I can do about it.”
