De Rossi admits Juventus exposed Roma weaknesses

Daniele De Rossi admits AS Roma's thrashing by Juventus laid their weaknesses bare.

Asked what the Giallorossi need to do in order to change their fortunes, De Rossi cast a wide net.

"Evidently we are also lacking something in physical terms, while Juve are more organised in the way they run, so it's more efficient. Clearly we have to work on physical and above all tactical issues, get to know each other better.

"Alessandro Florenzi has more pace, so he's meant to run forward more than me. The problem is you need the ball to run forward and we barely got hold of it tonight.

"Football is just that, it's not as if someone brings it down from another planet. You need to get points."
