Roma director Francesco Totti has hailed the impact of Eusebio di Francesco this season.

The coach has Roma well placed in the title race.

“It'll be important not to lose so we can stay near the top," Totti told TuttoJuve.

“Scudetto? It's best not to say that word in Rome, but we're one of the candidates for the top four.

“Di Francesco? He brought harmony to the squad. I didn't know him as a Coach, but he's amazed me and he'll get even better."
