FONSECA: "MY PLAYERS HAVE TREMENDOUS CHARACTER"

Roma's coach Paulo Fonseca spoke in his post-match press conference following the 2-1 away victory against Udinese.

We played well and had loads of chances, even playing a man light," the Giallorossi coach said. "The lads stuck together after [Federico] Fazio's red card and we deserved to win,” Paulo Fonseca commented after the match."

Instead of defending Roma kept on attacking and scored another three goals: “My players have tremendous character. They realised it was a key moment in the match, that we needed to defend and at the same time threaten in attack. When you find yourself a man down you tend to sit back but we realised we could score more.

On Pastore: “He's fit and he produced a fine display today. He's getting his confidence back and with it he's finding his feet again.

On Gianluca Mancini: “He's been a real revelation for me. He's doing really well in midfield. I'll have to think about what to do in the next game. We won't have Fazio so I'll have to decide whether to play Mancini at the back in or midfield. In any case, he's playing very well there.
