The Giallorossi are preparing for tomorrow’s Europa League encounter with Astra at 20.05 UK time (19.05 GMT).

However, the match has been overshadowed by Francesco Totti’s 40th birthday party and wife Ilary Blasi’s bitter criticism of “small man” Spalletti.

“In all of this there was also a banner that was a show of support giving me enormous pleasure,” said the Coach in today’s Press conference.

He was referring to a large banner that appeared near the Colosseum that read: ‘Respect for Mr. Spalletti!’

“It is a call for what the fans want, which is no more games or attention towards situations that do not benefit Roma. They seek union, cohesion and respect for Roma.

“Situations created on purpose to take energy away from the Roma results must be eliminated. We need respect in general for Roma. We all must respect Roma, so I call everyone to order.

“We need to get results because we are Roma, but you (reporters) must do your jobs well. Enough of these little games, enough.

“That also goes for criticism of my line-up tomorrow, because squad rotation does not necessarily mean that these players are weaker or any less members of the Roma squad.

“I play Alisson in goal because he is strong and deserves to play. There will be others like Leandro Paredes who will play. I have to make my decisions based on winning the game and whoever plays will still be Lupi. It has to be like that.”
