Luciano Spalletti says he "will have to go home" if he is unable to lead Roma to silverware this season.
Since replacing Rudi Garcia in January 2016, Spalletti has steadied the ship at the Stadio Olimpico before returning them to the title race this season.
"For a variety of reasons, winning is imperative here," Spalletti told L'Equipe. "We don't have the time to think of a gradual progression, everything is accelerated, lived at full-speed.
"So it's very simple: if I don't win something, it means I haven't done any better than my predecessors and, as a result, I'll have to go home."
After a goal-laden end to last season, Francesco Totti has once again faded to the fringes of Spalletti's plans this term.
"What is he like? To still have Totti after all these years offers a notable advantage," Spalletti said. "When he comes onto the pitch, he creates a special atmosphere right away."
