Roma owner Di Benedetto insists Enrique safe

AS Roma owner Thomas Di Benedetto insists they're sticking with coach Luis Enrique after being dumped from the Europa League.

Fans and local media have demanded the tactician's dismissal and backed Totti in this apparent cold war.

"I admire Totti very much, as he is a great player and very important for our project, but the Coach decides who plays and when," warned Di Benedetto on Sky Sport Italia.

"And I support the Coach 100 per cent. We chose him for his philosophy of football, that Barcelona style, but also his behaviour on and off the field. The squad counts more than the individual."
