AS Roma coach Eusebio Di Francesco says he's doing he can to get his team back on the rails.

Di Francesco recognises results must improve as he comes under job pressue.

"I don't have much to say," Di Francesco said ahead of the Viktoria Plzen Champions League match.

“If I'm here it's because others are aware that there's a Coach with his ideas and his thinking.

“Right now things aren't going well, but there's the desire to continue, I believe in my work but we need to change course.

“The ritiro is necessary to understand the reasons, I want to keep fighting and look for solutions.

“I know this place, I know that a Coach can go from the stars to being the worst out there. I want to turn the team around, as far as I'm concerned you can tell me many things, but for my part I don't have the desire to externalise something for someone who doesn't deserve my words."
