Roma boss Garcia happy with stroppy Iturbe

Roma coach Rudi Garcia has no problem with Juan Manuel Iturbe.

Iturbe threw a strop when substituted during their 2-2 draw with Sassuolo.

"Iturbe deserved to play because he's been training extremely well," said Garcia after the game.

“[The scene] just shows that he has character. Players who take to the pitch must give their utmost to be decisive and they can't be content with their performance.

“Sanctions to the player? There are more interesting subjects to be discussed."
