Daniele De Rossi says replacing Rick Karsdorp at halftime would have been the ‘easiest way to blame somebody for the defeat’ and insists the Giallorossi didn’t lack personality against Bayer Leverkusen.

Roma defender Rick Karsdorp has undergone nasal surgery. The Holland international has suffered a nose fracture and underwent surgery last week. It means Karsdorp is out of today's derby against Lazio.
