Zeman: Totti has carried Roma on his back for 15 years

Zdenek Zeman has paid tribute to AS Roma captain Francesco Totti.

Zeman, who is back in charge of Foggia, coached Totti at Roma and has always held him in high esteem.

"Francesco is eclectic and can play wherever," Zeman said. "He has carried Roma on his back for 15 years.

"Del Piero on the other hand is no longer indispensable. Cassano is a talent, but he has never been decisive."

Unsurprisingly, considering his past, Zeman then attacked Juventus and Inter.

"The Nerazzurri won the Champions League playing anti-football, not as a team who passes for the best in Europe.

"As for Del Neri, I won't talk about him seeing that he does things that aren't in my spirit."
