Roma, Spalletti: 'I am happy with Iturbe's and Juan Jesus' performances'. But Gerson...
Luciano Spalletti spoke to Sky Sport after Roma's 4-0 win against Astra : "We played a good game and we created many chances. I could not ask for more. Juan Jesus and Iturbe? Juan Jesus played a quality game even if in that position he could not attack in the same way. As for Iturbe, he is a great person but sometimes he lacks initiative. He has great speed and physical attributes, he deserved a goal. We always have to improve but I am happy. Against Torino we gave up too many counter-attacks, today it was much better. Gerson? He likes to have the ball at his feet but he is not Nainggolan or even Perrotta. He does not have quick feet and this could hurt him in this championship. For me, his best position would be deeper in the midfield even if he struggles defensively. He has to earn his playing time ".
