“I think a club is formed of footballers, Coach, directors and supporters. If Roma win tomorrow, the supporters win before everyone else.

“It's understandable that they would be angry now. We are not meeting their expectations, but I'd like to ask them not to abandon us and to keep supporting us.

“Tomorrow we're going to win, but we need their help.

“It's harder to play when you're getting booed, and that's true for champions as well.

“I could find myself in a different club tomorrow, but I know supporters are always going to be a factor.”

Keita was also asked whether this was the hardest moment of the Giallorossi season.

“Yes it is, but tomorrow we have an important opportunity to win.

“High and low moments alternate. It's in moments like these that champions raise their heads. We can qualify.”
