AS Roma coach Luciano Spalletti
said Tuesday that everything was fine between him and captain
Francesco Totti following reports of a big row after Sunday's
3-3 draw at Atalanta. "We have cleared things up. Everything is
sorted," Spalletti told a news conference before Wednesday's
home game against Torino. "This situation will not distract
us".He added that his comments playing down the importance of
Totti's late equaliser against Atalanta were made "because it
does not seem right to say that Roma is just one player".
Relations between Totti, who is approaching the end of his
career, and Spalletti have been strained after the latter
replaced Rudi Garcia in January to embark on his second stint in
charge of the three-time Italian champions. "I probably have not
played Totti much, but I keep him in consideration," Spalletti
said. "He's been put in a position to use his class".
