Francis Totticurrently in Australia for commercial commitments, was a guest at an event in Melbourne together with Mark Bresciano and also spoke about Roma. “I hope that Daniele stays at Roma for a really long time, first because he deserves it and secondly because it will mean that he will be doing well. I hope for a rosy future, I hope that Roma will return to playing important competitions because the city and the fans deserve it”the statements of the former 10 Roma player.
“When I stopped playing I felt dead – he said – as if they had taken away the earth from under my feet, everyday life, the training camps, the possibility of playing: I felt like I was sinking also because it wasn’t my choice. For goodness sake, I was 40 years old, but it’s one thing that you stop and another that things go another way. Am I the technical director of Roma with De Rossi as coach? Daniele is a great coach and we are seeing it, I don’t know if I were to become director, at the moment they have other ideas at Roma, they make other choices and it doesn’t depend on me. Otherwise I wouldn’t be here.”
“Would you like to be a coach?” No. Not even at Roma? Well you’re putting me in difficulty, but for now I’m not thinking about it, then we’ll see. Certainly more no than yes – he concluded -. My favorite coach? Mazzone raised me, Zeman taught me a lot and with Spalletti (laughs, ed.) we played many matches. Spalletti is number one. My son Cristian in Roma? I hope so, but in the end the important thing is that he is happy and enjoys playing football.”
