Riise Happy In Rome!
Roma had a terrible start to the season, and currently stand fourth bottom of the Italian league.
But Roma coach Luciano Spalletti is confident his team will build on last weekend's derby victory over Lazio and move up the Serie A table with Riise playing a part ... even though he has spent most of the season on the bench.
Riise: "This is not a crisis.
"I love challenges like this. The coach has to stick with the side which beat Chelsea."
The 1-0 win over city rivals Lazio 1-0 last Sunday takes their grand total of wins to three, giving them 11 points and leaving them three points and one place above the relegation zone.
