Roma coach Luciano Spalletti refuses to let on if he play skipper Francesco Totti in tonight's huge game against Inter Milan.

"I need time to think about it. I have seen Francesco has improved a great deal, he is fired up and that is crucial. He has something more than the other players and can give the team a real hand," said Spalletti.

"Inter have absolutely nothing more than Roma at the moment. Our side showed all its worth in some big games and I am convinced our players know how hard they fought to get here, so they can't be happy with the current results.

"I am sure we have everything we need to win this match. I can see this as the turning point for our season, giving a practical response to the critics on the pitch.

"I'm sure it will be an entertaining spectacle and that enthusiasm can give a great deal to these players for the future."
