Spalletti demands maximum points
Monday 8 December, 2008

Roma Coach Luciano Spalletti has guaranteed that his men will go after three points against Bordeaux tomorrow.

The Giallorossi only need a draw to secure qualification from Group A, but a win would ensure that they finish top.

“My team always play to win because to think any other way would be a huge error,” Spalletti stressed.

“The crucial aspect is psychological. The fact that Bordeaux are coming to the Stadio Olimpico needing to win is an advantage for us.

“It's essential that we go out with the same attitude. If we get three points, we don't have to do any sums.”

Montenegro striker Mirko Vucinic will return to Spalletti's squad after a recent knee problem.

However, Rodrigo Taddei will miss out with a thigh strain and hasn't been included in the squad.

Alberto Aquilani, David Pizarro, Christian Panucci, Max Tonetto and Stefano Okaka are also missing.
